Soleimani’s undying crimes

Iranian terrorist Qassem Soleimani may have died, but his crimes will not die, as the late Quds Force commander's role was not only limited to killing free Iranians and defenseless people in Iran, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon and other countries, but he also played a major role in looting and plundering the wealth of the Iranian people, similar to what other mullahs do. Soleimani and Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei were spending this wealth on terrorists and their regional mercenaries.

Mahmoud al-Zahar, a member of Palestine’s Hamas, recently said, “On their first visit to Tehran in 2006, they requested financial aid during their meeting with [former Iranian President] Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and the latter referred him to Qassem Soleimani, who put $22 million in suitcases. In fact, a larger amount was to be paid; however, since they were only nine people, and each bag weighed 40 kg, they could not carry more than that.” (Iran’s Alalam channel in Arabic, December 28, 2020).

Hassan Nasrallah, leader of the Lebanese Hezbollah, told Al-Mayadeen Al-Arabiya that his group now has twice as many guided missiles as it did a year ago. (Associated Press, December 27, 2020).

Nasrallah also said, “Qassem Soleimani provided unlimited logistical support to Palestinian groups and played a role in delivering Kornet missiles to the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.” (Al-Mayadeen channel, December 28, 3030).

“Qassem Soleimani personally visited the Gaza Strip and played an important role in designing the map of the underground tunnels,” said Ahmed Abdel Hadi, the Hamas representative in Lebanon. (Same source).

A member of the Revolutionary Guard, Naqdi, admitted on Saturday evening, January 2, 2021, that, during the past 30 years, the mullah regime has spent $17 billion on all activities, including diplomatic, cultural and defense activities in the region.

In late September 2020, a member of the Revolutionary Guard, Ali Fadawi, deputy commander of the mullah regime’s guard forces, said that the military cost of the Iran-Iraq war was $19.6 billion.

Based on estimates and research, Bloomberg News reported in 2015 that Tehran spends $6 billion annually on its militias in Syria, and in some cases the amount of this aid reaches $15 billion annually.

Saffar Harandi, a member of the Expediency Council, said, “The sources of foreign exchange were at the disposal of Qassem Soleimani, and since he was practicing his activities outside the country and he had to spend in foreign currency, he had to have countless funds at his disposal.” (Iran’s Channel 2, December 30, 2020).

Brigadier General Basiji Burdistan, head of the Center for Strategic Studies and Research in the Army under Khamenei, said, “The mullah regime’s guards were transporting materiel and personnel from Tehran to Syria naturally as the main support force for the Quds Force at the airport to transport it to Damascus by cargo planes, and we attend another part on the borders of Khosravi and other places, while Iraqi trucks come and ship them to Iraq.” (Iran’s Channel 5, January 1, 2021)

Hashmatullah Falahat Bishah, a former member of the mullah Shura Council, said, “Perhaps what we paid to militias in Syria ranged between $20-30 billion dollars.” (Fararo website, May 20, 2020).

On the anniversary of the killing of Qassem Soleimani, Manar Jaafar, daughter of Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the late leader of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) in Iraq, told Al-Mayadeen TV, “Without the support of Iran, the Popular Mobilization Forces would not have existed and would not have developed and spread, and so on. The attack on the Habib base in Iraq of the PMOI was also the work of Qassem Soleimani.”(Fars News Agency, January 2, 2021).

The People's Mujahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI) reported that the terrorist Quds Force, led by Qassem Soleimani, has not failed to commit any crime to ignite wars and export terrorism to serve the security of the mullah regime. This demonic force is involved in the many massacres of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, as well as the killing of children and defenseless people in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen and other countries. Among these criminal practices are the following:

• Carrying out several hijackings and kidnappings in the 1980s.

• The killing of innocent pilgrims in Mecca on June 31, 1987.

• Launching a terrorist attack in Argentina in 1994 (AMIA explosion).

• Launching a terrorist attack on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1996 (Khobar Towers).

• Launching frequent attacks on the Ashraf and Liberty camps, where the PMOI is stationed. Among them is the massacre of PMOI members on September 1, 2013 in Ashraf in Iraq’s Diyala governorate.

• The bombing of PMOI camps in Iraq with missiles, as well as carrying out countless assassinations.

• A ground attack on the headquarters of Iranian Kurdish parties in Iraqi Kurdistan in 2018.

• Planning and cooperating with the Lebanese Hebollah in the assassination of late Lebanese President Rafik Hariri.

• An attempt to bomb a huge Iranian gathering in Paris in 2018, which was revealed and neutralized, and resulted in the appearance of the mullahs’ terrorist diplomat, Asadullah Asadi, before the Belgian court. His trial is currently underway.

• The mullah regime’s Revolutionary Guards monopolize drug smuggling under the pretext of confronting drug traffickers.

Over the past year since the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, leaders of the mullah regime continue to make statements about their determination to exact revenge on those who assassinated him. More recently, the mullah Shura Council approved a 16-item plan called “extreme revenge”, which was published in the regime-affiliated media under the title “The plan to avenge the assassination of Qassem Soleimani”.

Leader of the Iranian resistance, Massoud Rajavi, said, “Qassem Soleimani is the face of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s coin. They are Shiite and Sunni twins from one godfather, namely, Wilayat al-Faqih (guardianship of the jurist). Those who support the mullah regime and Qassem Soleimani publicly declare their reactionary nature, and they are forces that must be eliminated.”
