Jabhat Al-Nusra Members in Aleppo Respond to Nuclear Deal: America Is the Great Satan

Jabhat Al-Nusra members in Aleppo were recently asked for their thoughts on the Iranian nuclear deal. Iran and America "are in cahoots, conspiring," said one. "America is the Greater Satan, the greatest enemy," said another.


Following are excerpts from the video-clip, which was posted on the Internet on July 30, 2015.


Jabhat Al-Nusra member: Nobody could have missed how the international community, headed by America, conspired to ignore the massacres perpetrated by the regime in Syria, the barrel bombs, the missiles, and even the chemical weapons. The international community seemed incapable of making a decision, but the truth is that this was a conspiracy of the world powers, with Iran, Russia, and the Rafidites all over the world, on the one hand, and the E.U. and the U.S., on the other hand.

Jabhat Al-Nusra member, wearing military fatigues: America is the Greater Satan, the greatest enemy. This is a Crusader war aimed at killing the Sunni people. They are not our friends. They do not know what friendship means. They want to kill as many Sunni Muslims as possible.


[…]


Jabhat Al-Nusra member: Brother, they have been negotiating for 22 months on whether to give [Iran] nuclear [capabilities] or not. The result was that they allowed Iran to possess a nuclear [project]. Whoever thought that Iran is an enemy of the Greater Satan – America – should think again.


[…]


Jabhat Al-Nusra member: The Lord has exposed the true nature of the Americans and the Iranians. They are always against the Arabs and Muslims, particularly the Sunnis. This is a comprehensive agreement to fight terrorism, by which they mean the Sunnis.


[…]


Jabhat Al-Nusra member: This is a game by Iran and America with regard to nuclear weapons, in order to annihilate Islam, to annihilate the slogan of "There is no god but Allah." May Allah grant us victory. We used to say that America is against Iran, but this was nothing but a lie. They are in cahoots, conspiring.
