There is a well-known saying - “The killer will be killed, even if it takes time.” All those who have committed massacres against the Iranian people, the peoples of the region, and their proxies spreading corruption in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen will be killed.
The oppressor and the murderer must be punished in this life and the hereafter, but God grants respite and does not neglect. At the same time, those whose vision has been blinded by hatred or sectarian and doctrinal extremism place no value on their homeland or concern for their families and relatives, to the point of participating in attacks targeting their own country.
This is the worst form of corruption on earth, as those who betray their homeland cannot be trusted, not even with the welfare of their own families.
Since 1979, the region has been afflicted by a regime still living in the Middle Ages, and using terrorism to impose sectarian beliefs that are neither Islamic nor humane. These ideas reflect a repugnant form of racism. For 47 years, the Iranian regime has thrived on bloodshed, subjecting the region to wars and crises since 1980. The words of Al-Mutanabbi resonate with Iran under the rule of the “Ayatollahs’ regime” - “One of the most difficult situations in life is when a weak man is forced to befriend his enemy.”
Given its geographical proximity, we must coexist with Iran, despite its regime targeting us with numerous terrorist plots. However, establishing a conscious and calculated friendship with Iran is not a sign of weakness, but it reflects our belief that the region, blessed with abundant natural resources and a rich heritage, has the potential to build a rich civilization. Instead, the malevolent neighbor and its agents have sought to alter the region’s character and culture by planting cells throughout the Gulf states and spreading fear in Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
These traitors resemble Abu Raghal, the embodiment of betrayal and treachery. The discovery of terrorist cells in Kuwait comes as no surprise. The members of these cells sold their homeland for a pittance. They are not part of this nation; instead, they harbor hatred toward it and its people. The cell recently uncovered by the Ministry of Interior is not the first. Since 1979, other cells have carried out bombings at popular cafes, some embassies, and oil facilities, in addition to attempting to assassinate the late Amir, Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad (May God have mercy on him).
This heinous history of the Iranian regime cannot be ignored, and Iran cannot be dealt with on the basis of “being an enemy we are forced to befriend.” After this long history of treachery, and amid a fierce war, the hostile neighbor continues to target us and activate sleeper cells in Kuwait and beyond. First, we extend our gratitude to His Excellency the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, Sheikh Fahad Yousef Saud Al-Sabah, for his tremendous efforts in safeguarding Kuwait from danger, including neutralizing the “Abdali cell” that threatened the nation’s security. Second, it must be emphasized that the government, represented by the First Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister of Justice, should review the National Unity Law, which contains loopholes that may protect those hostile to their homeland. Penalties under this law must be increased to prevent attempts to make Kuwait more like Lebanon and Iraq. Third, Kuwait today must stand united, across all tribes, sects, and social components, to form an impenetrable barrier against the Iranian enemy and all other threats. As the saying goes, “Once bitten, twice shy.” We must learn from experience. There is no room for dissimulation in this era. Honesty is the true protector of nations. The National Unity Law, in its current form, appears to have been enacted to protect one group over another.
