RNA – Hujjat al-Islam Sayyed Sibtayn Sabzewari, the chairman of the Shi’ah Council of ‎Punjab in Pakistan, said the developments in the Middle East demonstrate that some Islamic ‎countries trust the United States and Israel instead of depending on the power of God and ‎the unity of the Islamic ummah and stressed, “This will end in loss because in reality, the ‎United States wants to exploit some Arab countries and use them against Iran in order to ‎control the oil market and sell their weapons.”‎

The Pakistani Shi’ah cleric added, “The existence of the American army in the holy land of ‎Hijaz is the United States’ largest plot against the Two Holy Shrines [in Makkah and ‎Madinah].”‎

He strongly condemned the threats by the United States against Iran and said, “The Islamic ‎ummah must stand alongside Iran and instead of considering Iran as their enemy, the Arab ‎countries must consider Iran as their ally because the United States and Israel want Arab ‎countries to stand against Iran so that the Islamic ummah is divided and they can easily ‎oppress the Palestinian people.”‎
‎ ‎
Hujjat al-Islam Sabzewari further added, “The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is a ‎good organization for resolving the differences between the Arab countries but some Arab ‎countries are trying to use this institution for their own benefit because of their hostility to ‎Iran and this is in not in the interest of the ummah in any manner. The Arab League summit, ‎which is to be held in the next few days, is not to defend the Arab countries, but to defend ‎the interests of the United States, and we strongly condemn this.”‎
