“People of Bahrain want to be annexed by Iran”
Kamangir | July 10, 2007 | Category Iran, Islamic Republic
In the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) meeting in Riyadh the Arab leaders talked about some members’ dispute with Iran regarding the three strategic islands of the Greater Tunb, the Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa, all besides the Strait of Hormoz. That was clearly condemned by Tehran. The interesting development, however, is the reaction of the state-run newspaper Kayhan with its Leader-assigned editor writing,
Bahrain’s role in this issue should be considered thoroughly. Because Bahrain has been a part of Iran, separated from the country as a result of an unlawful affair between the dead King [of Iran] and the US and the UK. Today, the main demand of the people of Bahrain is to be annexed by the Islamic mother country, Iran. Obviously, this definite right of the Iranians [of Bahrain], which is a province separated from Iran, could not and should not be ignored.
Thanks to Matthew for correcting my mistake.

One cannot help but wonder if anyone has told the people of Bahrain of this profound wish of theirs.
Wellcome back Home! Dearest Province : ” Bahrain “
I do not believe the sovereign country of Bahrain would agree with your assessment. Are you referring to the editorial by Mr. Shaiatmadami? I thought that was resolved. Has it not?

[...] two months ago, the Leader-assigned head of the far-right newspaper Kayhan claimed that people of Bahran want this country to be annexed by Iran. The article caused rage in Bahrain and other places. Today, Shariat Madary, the head of Kayhan, [...]
