Mohammad Javad Zarif told the Geneva-based U.N. Human Rights Council on Monday that “a sizeable number” of those joining the Islamic State group and others were second-generation immigrants in western democracies.
He noted that some of those “beheading innocent civilians speak European languages with native accents” — a veiled reference to “Jihadi John,” who appeared in several IS propaganda videos showing the execution of the group’s prisoners.
“Jihadi John” was revealed last week to be Mohammed Emwazi, a young man raised in London.
Zarif also repeated his country’s previous claim that western efforts to promote human rights in the Mideast have destabilized existing regimes and benefited extremist groups.

He is 100% correct on this. It was the genuis George Bush who decided if you allow muslims free rights and elections they will choose good over evil. He thought he would liberate Iraq. thanks Mr. Bush for invading Iraq and creating Isis. Just te be fair yes Obama is to blame for pulling out too soon. That allowed a vacuum for Isis. But let me remind everyone why where we there in the first place. If Saddam would still be in power would there be an Isis? And what Iran won’t admit is that Iran is more powerfull due to our stupid naive invasion of Iraq. Saddam kept Iran in check too.
Iran’s foreign minister has accused the West of fueling Islamic extremism by failing to protect the rights of Muslim immigrants. ( What I mean to say is that these muslim immigrants initially only want to kill jews and destroy Israel. When the host countries denied them those “rights” they rebelled and joined ISIS which beheads people from even their host countries. So theoretically its the fault of the West. -not us)
that “a sizeable number” of those joining the Islamic State group and others were second-generation immigrants in western democracies. ( What I mean is: not only is our ideology taking hold in our own countries, we have exported terrorist ideals even to your countries and it is popular. The proof is look how many ISIS are coming from the West. The problem is that when we teach them direct – then they are not against us. But when they learn in the West- they’re against us too! It must be some ingredient that they get in the West that causes this. And its up to you Westerners to fix it! Unless the ideology is always to go against the other country – so in fact the other country may be Iran! Oh no! What have we done?”
in other words: don’t complain when we torture our people but we, iran, are going to criticize you, western nations, for human rights abuses
As long as the Moslems continue to blame the west and the Zionists and the Easter bunny, and everyone but themselves fur their own problems, add long as they continue to do that, their threat to world security will continue and the world will continue to shun them (except for idiotic liberals who will continue to embrace them)
