Iranwire – The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran has praised violence against Israelis as the “awakening” of young Palestinians.
On the evening of Tuesday, April 12, Khamenei was quoted by Iranian media as having eulogized on what he called “the vigilance, the enthusiasm and the endeavors of young Palestinians in the heart of the 1948 occupied territories.”
In the past three weeks 14 Israelis have been killed and a number of others have been injured in the streets of various cities, attacked by individual Palestinians. They in turn were encouraged by armed groups supported by the Islamic Republic.
In his latest pronouncements, Khamenei said: “These moves showed that Palestine is alive, despite efforts by the US and its followers, and through the current action, the final victory will be with the Palestinian people.”
The last deadly incident took place six days ago, when a 28-year-old man opened fire on a bar in Tel Aviv, killing three people. With the increasing tension, thousands of police officers, security and military forces have been deployed in Israeli cities and in the West Bank.
Besides officials in the United States, France and other Western countries allied with Israel, two countries that only recently normalized relations with Israel – the UAE and Bahrain – also condemned the attacks.
