Khamenei Orders Muslims to Fund Hamas
The “supreme leader” of Iran urges all followers of the Religion of Peace™ to send money to the genocidal terrorist gang Hamas: Iran leader urges Muslims to fund Palestinians.
TEHRAN (AFP) - Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei called on Muslims worldwide to provide money to the Palestinians during his talks with the Islamic radical Hamas movement, state television reported.
“We must make a plan so all Muslims will be able to supply the Palestinians with a yearly financial aid package,” Khamenei told Hamas’ political leader Khaled Mashaal on Monday.
“This voluntary gesture will create a spiritual bond among Muslims and the Palestinian cause and have a great impact on the world,” Khamenei said.
He lauded Hamas for not moderating its fierce resistance to Israel after its upset victory in Palestinian parliamentary elections last month.
“The Hamas positions are fundamental and right,” he said, praising Palestinians for electing the Islamic party.
“The Palestinian people voted knowing it meant choosing resistance and fighting the Zionist regime.”

This puts the Ayatollah Khamenei and ex-president Jimmy Carter squarely on the same side.
