He also called on the opposition parties and the people of Bahrain to support the political position of the national figure Ayatollah Sheikh Issa Qassim.His statements were made during the one day sit-in held by Bahrain clerics in Duraz grand mosque to protest and denounce the regime’s attack on Qassim’s home.In his speech dedicated to clerics he said they are requested to escalate their denouncing language and strongly condemn the attack on Sheikh Qassim’s home, support this national figure and encourage the people to stand up for him and to demand and insist on holding the perpetrators of this crime to account.Al-Ghuraifi said the regime intended to pass a number of messages through the attack, the first of which is “As they have said; there are no red lines. The mosques, the Quran, beliefs, sanctity of homes and this national figure are all not red lines. The second message is that the regime speaks no language other than suppression. The third message is that this great man must be broken and in the fourth message the regime wanted to examine our people’s stance.”He said this attack is considered an attack against the Bahraini’s dignity and unity and security and so they are requested to continue expressing their anger.The Friday attack on Sheikh Issa Qassim’s house brought wide outrage not only in Bahrain but in the Arabic and Islamic world too.
