Iran sermon: Muslims defeated ‘infidels’ in Aleppo
2016-12-18
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Tehran Friday prayers holy man, Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani, claimed a military victory in Aleppo, applauding what he commended as "Aleppo triumph" as a victory of the "Moslems over the Infidels", according to various Iranian state run controlled media outlets.

According to "al-Alam" news channel website, Kashani affirmed that Aleppo was "liberated" and not "fallen" and that the Moslems were victorious over the infidels, as an innuendo to the Syrian opposition, who rebelled against Bashar al Assad’s authoritarian regime and consequently being forcibly evacuated from their homes as culmination of the siege, starvation and shelling.

In addition, Kashani was quoted by the Iranian "al Hawza news agency" Saturday, saying that Aleppo’s accomplishment is "a victory achieved as a consequence of resoluteness, tenacity and determination."
