AhlulBayt News Agency: The secretary general of Iraq’s Ahdullah Movement strongly condemned recent remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Iran, warning that any aggression against the Islamic Republic would spark far‑reaching regional repercussions.
In a forceful statement, Seyyed Hashem al‑Haidari said Trump’s comments reveal what he called a misunderstanding of Iran’s political‑religious system, its popular support, and its regional influence.
Al‑Haidari argued that Washington is misjudging Iran’s internal unity and the ideological foundations of its leadership, adding that any military clash would result in severe losses and humiliation for the aggressor.
Citing Quranic verses about perseverance and victory, the Iraqi cleric described resistance to foreign pressure as both a religious and moral obligation, asserting that threats against Iran would only strengthen regional opposition to U.S. and Israeli policies.
He warned that an attack on Iran could ignite a “regional volcano,” with consequences spreading across multiple fronts in West Asia. He linked such escalation to existing tensions in Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine, saying regional popular movements would not remain idle.
The movement leader also accused the United States of persistent interference in regional affairs and rejected any externally imposed political dictates, saying regional nations would resist pressure and coercion.
Al‑Haidari added that large numbers of supporters of resistance groups across the region are ready to mobilize if conflict expands, describing this as part of a broader deterrent landscape involving both state and non‑state actors opposed to U.S. and Israeli agendas.
His comments come amid ongoing tensions between Washington and Tehran, as more regional political and religious figures issue warnings about escalation and highlight the risk of a wider conflict.
