(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Brigadier General Mohammad-Reza Naqdi said on Thursday: “The Ashura brigades of Basij forces are ready to be deployed to London as peacekeeping forces.”
Naqdi criticized the British authorities for their harsh crackdown of protesters and describing them as rioters and hooligans.
He said: “Unfortunately the crimes and violence of the autocratic British kingdom continues against the country's deprived [population] and not only the advice of well-wishers has no effect on the conduct of the regime's repressive police force but we witness the deprived people of this country are being called a bunch of thieves and looters.”
He noted that it is not clear why they cannot identify and track down the thieves while they have more than 4.6 million security cameras installed in the country and there are only one million people living in London.
Naqdi expressed disappointment with the UN Security Council as invariably supporting oppressors.
He added: “If the UN General Assembly approves, the Basij Organization is ready to send a number of Ashura and al-Zahra brigades to Liverpool and Birmingham as peacekeepers to monitor observation of human rights laws and deter use of force.”
Naqdi referred to UK Prince Williams' lavish wedding and the high cost of its live coverage and described the recent uprisings in Britain as the result of “big mistakes” by British officials and warned them of even more severe consequences.
