GCC call to Iran: Leave UAE islands | |||
2012-04-18 | |||
The members of the Gulf Cooperation Council "strongly condemn the Iranian president's visit to Abu Musa, which is a provocative act and a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of the United Arab Emirates over its three islands," they said in a joint statement. "Any aggression on the sovereignty or interference in the internal affairs of a member country would be considered as an attack on all member countries and interference in their affairs," the statement said, adding that Ahmadinejad's Abu Musa visit contradicted good neighborly policies. The GCC asked Iran "end its occupation of the three UAE islands — Abu Mousa and Greater and Lesser Tunbs — and respond to calls by the UAE to find a peaceful and just solution through negotiations or by resorting to the International Court of Justice."
The UAE has summoned Iran's ambassador to Abu Dhabi to denounce Ahmadinejad's visit to Abu Musa. UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al-Nahayan warned on Monday that if left unresolved, the issue "could jeopardize international security and peace."
"The armed forces and the army will inflict heavy regret and shame in case of any aggression against Iranian lands and interests," Ahmadinejad said, adding that Iran "is ready to protect its existence and sovereignty." | |||

#1 Moud is warning them back. OWG SHIA-LED CALIPHATE, "NEO-PERSIANISM", + KEEPING/ISOLATING THE USN'S NIMITZ-CLASS + GATOR NAVY TO THE SEA OF OMAN = "SHAPING THE BATTLEFIELD". Iran is counting on the major Muslim nations of the ME, includ Turkey + Afghanistan, to NOT allow their territories to be used by the US-Allies to launch anti-NucProg air strikes and espec any full-scale ground invasion of Iran. INVERSELY, IRAN IS COUNTING ON SAME TO ALLOW THEIR TERRITORIES TO BE USED IN WAGING REGIONAL OR TRANS-REGIONAL, "DEFENSIVE", [Nuclear = Nukes-WMDS?]"GUERILLA/PEOPLE'S WAR" AFTER A "ZIONIST-CRUSADER-INFIDEL-IMPERIALIST" LED GROUND INVASION DOES OCCUR. |
