Rouhani: Muslim World Hates US More Than Ever
Local Editor
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation meeting is a good opportunity for the Muslim world to voice its support for Palestine and condemn the illegal move of US embassy to the occupied holy city of al-Quds, describing Washington as being hated more than ever.
Before leaving on Friday for Istanbul to take part in the extraordinary session on OIC on Palestine, Rouhani told reporters that 'Defending the Palestinians and the holy al-Quds, is defending the Islamic values and a civilized nation that is now in a deplorable situation.'
Following the US provocative move in relocating its embassy from Tel Aviv to al-Quds tens of thousands of Palestinians protested the move that were suppressed brutally by the "Israeli" forces.
At least 60 Palestinians were martyred and some 3,000 others injured by live fire or other lethal means.
'This is not a new crime perpetrated by the Zionists because they have committed such crimes over the past 70 years; in fact, the killing and wounding of Palestinians on the Nakba Day is the latest instance of the 70-year-long record of crimes of the Zionist regime against the oppressed Palestinian people,' Rouhani said.
Commenting on relocation of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to the occupied city, Rouhani said the move is against the UN Security Council's resolutions, and it will certainly arouse the fury of the Muslim world.
