As the leading state sponsor of terrorism, the clerical dictatorship ruling Iran has doubled down on its commitment under new President-elect Masoud Pezeshkian<\/a>. In a recent phone conversation with the Houthis\u2019<\/a> Supreme Political Council head Mahdi Al-Mashat, Pezeshkian lauded the group’s aggressive military actions in the Red Sea, including attacks on commercial ships and foreign vessels.<\/p>\n Pezeshkian emphasized that the Houthi\u2019s actions represent \u201ca practical support for Palestine,\u201d slamming other Arab countries for what he called \u201ctheir inaction.\u201d This endorsement by the regime\u2019s new president highlights Tehran\u2019s continued role as a primary instigator of violence and unrest in the Middle East.<\/p>\n Moreover, Pezeshkian\u2019s condemnation of certain Arab nations for their perceived inaction reveals the regime’s divisive rhetoric aimed at fostering discord among Muslim countries. His assertion that the West\u2019s subversive policies are to blame for the region’s turmoil deflects from Tehran\u2019s own role in perpetuating violence through its proxy groups.<\/p>\n In the last few days since being appointed as the regime\u2019s new president, Pezeshkian has reiterated Tehran’s support for terrorist groups. In a message to Hezbollah leader<\/a> Hassan Nasrallah, Pezeshkian underscored the regime\u2019s long-standing policy of backing terrorist activities in the region.<\/p>\n #MasoudPezeshkian<\/a>: A Hardliner in Reformist Clothinghttps:\/\/t.co\/95Nu2jwXiK<\/a><\/p>\n — NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) July 13, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
