  • Rafsanjani: "The imperialists’ present-day enmity towards Islam and the Quran resembles the infidels’ heavy pressures against the noble prophet of Islam... The fanatics and ignorant people of the Western world are today overtly expressing their hatred against the liberating teachings of Islam and the Quran using Islamic fanaticism and blind terror as excuses... Radical Islamic groups such as al Qaeda and the Taliban are the creatures of the espionage service of the United States and the West... The United States desired to stop the Islamic revolution by strengthening Islamic fanaticism and strengthening and establishing extremist groups. But thanks to the divine wisdom their own creatures have become their own worst enemies."
