Perpetual Loss for the West’s Punters

Islam does not allow gambling and other vices since these are harmful to the society, particularly to the interests of the common person.

The Islamic Republic therefore does not indulge in such sordid practices as betting on either the right or the wrong horses, even on the political turf, where most of the cutthroat politicians of the West riding roughshod, destroy their own careers and the long-term interests of their countries as well, in elusive pursuit of a jackpot.

A glaring example of the West’s gamble of ‘playing for high stakes but ending up as losers’ were the recent riots in some parts of Iran.

The US and some West European regimes in their elusive bid to place hurdles in the path of Iran’s brilliant track record of progress in various fields, put all their money on hypocrites, thugs, terrorists, traitors, apostates, and women of loose morals.

The acts of arson, loot, murder, blasphemy, and sacrilege, committed by these criminals emboldened the punters (the puppeteers) to step up the false narratives of materialization of their 43-year dream of the dark horses sweeping the board.

The gamblers are the perpetual losers. They fail to understand that the winners are always the pedigreed, steeped in faith and sincerity, and not the agnostics and the immoral.

This is what the Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman meant Monday when he said, “the Western regimes bet on a losing horse when they put all their weight behind the recent riots in Iran.”

Nasser Kan’ani saying, “we had warned them not to sacrifice their interests but to no avail,” pointed out “they have now admitted their miscalculation concerning the violent incidents.”

It is, however, too late for the wage losers of the West to regret their unpardonable crimes. Tehran will never forget their roles in the riots that exceeded all bonds of diplomacy, resulting in the torching of public utilities, the shedding of innocent blood, the looting of private property, the assault on feminine virtues, the blaspheming of the pious and the patriotic, the sacrilege of shrines.

The backbone of popular rule in Iran is the grassroots support of the multimillion strong presence on the scenes of the committed men and hijab-clad women, which means the Islamic Republic will move more strongly towards its freedom-inspiring goals both at home and abroad.

To sum up, the Islamic Republic is too sacred a system to be sullied by the sinful, whether seditious males or scantily clad females.
