Iranian Dissident Journalist Zeidabadi: Syria Is About To Quit Alliance With Iran
Iranian dissident journalist Ahmad Zeidabadi has said that the desire of the U.S. and its allies in the Middle East to isolate Iran was taking on skin and sinews, and that if this process was completed it would have decisive impacts on Iranian society and government.
He said that there were signs that Syria was about to quit the Iran-Syria-Lebanon-Hamas-Islamic Jihad axis, and that declarations by senior Syrian and Israeli officials show that an agreement has been reached over a full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights.
Zeidabadi said that at a meeting between Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Al-Mu'alem and Iranian President Ahmadinejad, Ahmadinejad warned the Syrians that "the U.S. is on the brink of collapse and anyone linking its fate to it will be harmed by its crash."
Zeidabadi further said that talks between Iran and the U.S. on the future of Iraq were not taking place due to the U.S.'s refusal to make concessions to Iran vis-à-vis its nuclear issue.
He added that every time Iraq's national desires strengthen, it becomes more anti-Iran, as revealed by the reemerging conflict between the two countries over the 1975Algiers Accord (over the border between the two countries at Shatt Al-Arab).
