31 Aug 2013 - 15:28


Iran�s intelligence minister has condemned the growing wave of the new forms of terrorism across the globe and underlined Iran�s pivotal role as the flag-bearer of countering the scourge.
�Unfortunately, in today�s world, not only has terrorism not stopped, but also it manifests itself in new forms, and we are witnessing acts of terrorism across the world,� said Seyyed Mahmoud Alavi in a ceremony in Tehran on Saturday, which was held to commemorate 17,000 Iranian martyrs who have fallen victim to terrorist acts.

�Terror signifies enemies� frustration in using logic, and the more the frustration grows, the more the enemies are enraged,� Alavi noted.
�There are countries in the world that pay lip service to countering terrorism and consider themselves the flag-bearers and pioneers of the movement, but when we see their track record, it turns out that they are the initiators of state terrorism,� he added.
He said the victims of terrorism should take the lead when it comes to fighting terrorism, adding, �The Islamic Republic of Iran is the true standard-bearer of this campaign.�
