Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi on Friday denounced the deadly attacks by an alleged\u00a0white supremacist - reportedly an admirer\u00a0of US President Donald Trump - as inhumane and totally brutal.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cAny terrorist attack must be condemned by all states no matter where in the world, by whom, and with what motivation and pretext it is carried out,\u201d Qassemi said.<\/p>\n\n

He also urged governments to prevent racist and Islamophobic movements and ideologies from threatening the security and tranquility of the citizens of states across the world.<\/p>\n\n

His reaction came as political and Islamic leaders expressed their disgust at the massacre and\u00a0cited\u00a0rising \"Islamophobia\" as responsible.<\/p>\n\n

Political and Muslim leaders have expressed their disgust at the deadly shooting at two mosques in New Zealand.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

At least one gunman killed 49 people and wounded more than 20 during Friday prayers in New Zealand's worst ever mass shooting, which Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern condemned as terrorism.<\/p>\n\n

The Australian gunman, identified as Brenton Tarrant, broadcast live footage on Facebook of the attack on one mosque in the city of Christchurch, mirroring the carnage played out in video games, after publishing a \"manifesto\" in which he denounced immigrants, calling them \"invaders\".<\/p>\n\n

In his manifesto, Tarrant\u00a0said he saw Trump as \u201csymbol of renewed white identity and common purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

The 28-year-old terrorist said he chose to use a gun over other weapons because it would spark a debate around the second amendment.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWith enough pressure the left wing within the United States will seek to\u00a0abolish the second amendment, and the right wing within the US will see\u00a0this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty,\u201d\u00a0Tarrant said.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThis attempted abolishment of rights by the left will result in a dramatic\u00a0polarization of the people in the United States and eventually a fracturing\u00a0of the US along cultural and racial lines.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cEventually, when the white population of the USA realizes the truth of the\u00a0situation, war will erupt,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n

\u2018Far-right terrorism on rise in US because of Trump\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

In a Friday tweet, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif cited Trump\u2019s Islamophobic remarks, and lashed out at the \u201cWestern hypocrisy of defending demonization of Muslims as \u2018freedom of expression\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cImpunity in Western 'democracies'\u00a0to promote bigotry leads to this: Israeli thugs enter mosque in Palestine to insult Muslims; terrorists in NZ livestream their murder of 49 Muslims. Western hypocrisy of defending demonization of Muslims as 'freedom of expression'\u00a0MUST end,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

Impunity in Western \"democracies\" to promote bigotry leads to this:

\n-Israeli thugs enter mosque in Palestine to insult Muslims;
\n-Terrorists in NZ livestream their murder of 49 Muslims.
\nIntercept columnist Mehdi Hasan told CNN Tonight<\/em>\u00a0that \u201cfar-right terrorism\u201d was on the rise in the United States and blamed President Trump for attacks both in the US and abroad.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n

\u201cWestern government has turned a blind eye to domestic terrorism, to domestic far-right terrorism,\u201d Hasan said.<\/p>\n\n

He went on to say that there were\u00a0\u201cmore attacks, more casualties from domestic terrorist groups - far-right groups -\u00a0than there are quote-unquote jihadist or Islamist groups.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

According to Hasan, not only was Trump\u2019s rhetoric responsible for attacks in the US, he was also responsible for attacks in other countries.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cYou have Muslim victims of terror in New Zealand. I mentioned the attack in Canada -- Quebec City shortly after Trump was inaugurated, there's been attempted attacks and attacks in Minnesota and various places across the US.<\/p>\n\n

\"We do need to start taking this seriously. Crimes against minorities, Jewish groups, against Muslim communities, against people of color are on the rise in Britain, across western Europe, United States, Canada, Australia, and now sadly New Zealand,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cI mean, less than six months ago we know one of his big supporters sent pipe bombs in the mail to dozens of people who Trump had personally attacked and demonized. Who was driving around in a van with pro-Trump imagery and anti-CNN imagery. We know lots of far-right attackers have claimed to be Trump supporters in recent months,\u201d Hasan noted.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cSo, this is not just about Trump but about\u00a0politicians especially on the right\u00a0taking seriously this problem and\u00a0really being careful about their language at the very minimum,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","content_source":"","content_url":"","content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2019-03-16 07:47:57","content_date_finish":"2019-03-16 07:47:57","content_date_register":"2019-03-16 07:50:20","content_date_last_edit":"2019-03-16 07:50:20","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"0","content_show_related_img":"0","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"1","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"0","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"3083264300","attach_date_register":"2019-03-16 07:49:47","attach_id":"5757","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"650","attach_img_height":"365","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"0","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"2023","visit_date_last":"2024-11-02 08:02:44","attach_title":"Trump factor stands out in New Zealand mosque massacre 2","node_title":"Favorite,Important,News","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":98, \"left\":2, \"right\":11},{\"node_id\":125, \"left\":62, \"right\":63},{\"node_id\":126, \"left\":64, \"right\":65}]","node_number":"3","allowable_node":"3"}]]
