Islam urges justice, fairness toward non-Muslims: Ayatollah Khamenei
[Iran Press TV] Fearless Leader of the Islamic Revolution...Iran's doddering head theocrat... Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei ...the successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and the actual dictator of Iran... says Islam has ordered Moslems to treat the followers of other religions with "fairness and justice." "What is seen in the world today is that powers and governments which claim to [advocate] fairness and justice do not observe any fairness and justice except within the bounds of their narrow, limited and cruel policies," Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with representatives of religious minorities in Iran's Parliament (Majlis). The Leader pointed to the propaganda campaign against Moslems in Europe and the US and said, "What is at issue is not [the question] why the Moslems do not have the necessary freedom in most of these countries, but at issue is [the question] why the Moslems do not have any [sense of] physical safety." Ayatollah Khamenei cited the Hollywood-made film, American Sniper, as an example and said it encourages Christian or non-Moslem youngsters to harass the Moslems as much as possible. Islam does not accept this approach, the Leader said, adding, "Islam believes in fairness." Ayatollah Khamenei stated that Imam Ali, the first Imam of the Shias, has said a Moslem would not be blamed if they die of sadness over the harassment of a non-Moslem in a Moslem country.
