Iran Should Summon Germany’s Top Diplomat in Tehran

By: Hesameddin Kaveh

 

Recently, Germany delivered its most advanced domestically produced Dolphin class submarine-- capable carrying of carrying missiles with nuclear warheads-- to Israel, this while most of the intelligence, media and political affairs analysts believe that the assassination of Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan was plotted by Israel. For example, the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth published a confession by a top military analyst, Ron Ben Yishay, who said that the last two assassinations of Iranian scientists were plotted by Israeli intelligence and spy services.

 

How can we justify the double standard policies of the West-- including Germany-- which claims Iran is in pursuit of nuclear weapons on the one hand, and equips Israel with a submarine capable of launching nuclear missiles on the other, if we do not consider it hypocrisy and a bad policy? In this regard, the ministry of foreign affairs should summon the top German diplomat resident in Tehran to inform him of Iran’s protest against such inflammatory actions destined at weapon rivalry in the region. If Israel, well supported by the US, the West and their Arab companions, reserves its rights to have weapons of mass destruction and strategic weapons, Iran should prepare to rise against increasing threats by the US, Israel and their companions.

 

In the status quo of the region, an armed peace has been imposed on Muslim Iran. Although the regional nations support Iran, in practice, Iran should rely on its military forces in this pervasive battle. Note that the Russian government refrained from selling its S-300 air defense system to Iran-- under pressure by the US and the West-- while the Western countries generously offer Israel their most advanced weapons; equipping the air forces of Israel with the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and providing its naval forces with Dolphin class submarines are revealing examples. Such a double standard policy is followed by the US and the West to support Israel in its actions. In response to such measures, Iran should employ any military facilities that play a deterrent role, preventing the enemy’s invasion of our country.
