Iran denounces Egypt court's ruling Hamas
2015-03-01
[Iran Press TV] Iran has reacted strongly after a court in Egypt labeled the Paleostinian resistance movement Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, a "terrorist" organization.
The poor darlings. They've been working and plotting for so long to complete the encirclement of Israel, and now Egypt is going to ruin everything by ruining Hamas.
Condemning the verdict, which was issued on Saturday by the Cairo Court of Urgent Matters, an Iranian deputy foreign minister said later in the day that "Hamas is not a terrorist organization."

"The Tel Aviv regime is the illegitimate and terrorist regime, which is incapable in the face of the resistance, including Hamas and the Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
 (another Paleostinian resistance movement)," said Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, the Iranian deputy foreign minister for Arab and African affairs.

"The Islamic Theocratic Republic of Iran strongly condemns terrorism in all its forms anywhere, including in Egypt, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Africa, and Europe," the Iranian official also said,

Following the court's announcement on Saturday, the Paleostinian resistance group released a statement, describing the court's decision as "shocking and dangerous."

"The Egyptian court's decision to list the Hamas movement as a terror organization is shocking and is dangerous, and it targets the Paleostinian people and its factions of resistance," the statement added.

The court had also claimed in a lawsuit on January 31 that the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, was involved in recent attacks against Egypt's security forces.
