Nasrallah Mourns Former Iranian Leader Rafsanjani

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah mourned on Monday former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, a “major supporter” of the resistance during difficult times.

“Yesterday (Sunday) we lost one of the great men in this nation. For us, as the Islamic resistance in Lebanon and for 34 years, he was the protector, supporters and a compassionate father who has always defended us in all difficult circumstances,” said Nasrallah.

Rafsanjani, a pugnacious political survivor despite his support for moderates, died on Sunday after suffering a heart attack, news agencies had reported.

Rafsanjani, who was 82, was a pivotal figure in the foundation of the Islamic republic in 1979, and served as president from 1989 to 1997.

Iran observes three days of mourning following his death.

President Hassan Rouhani and his administration on Monday appeared at a mosque in northern Tehran, where Rafsanjani's body was brought.

All my respect and admiration go to Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah for mourning on Monday former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, and for describing him as “major supporter” of the resistance during difficult times.

He mourns an iranian leader but celebrates the death of lebanese leaders and syrian civilians and asks his militia to stop traffic and distribute 'baklawa'.

So now you can speak for the almighty? Go seek forgiveness ya salafi.
