IRAN: LIBERTY AND DEMOCRACY 'SATAN'S TOOLS' SAYS TOP CLERIC
Qom, 11 Oct. (AKI) - Iran's Grand Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi - one of the current hardline government's key reference points - has described Western values such as freedom and democracy as "the instruments of Satan."
Addressing the faithful in the holy Iranian city of Qom, he said: "The devil presents himself in many forms, and employs every means to convey his message. He uses each concept such as liberty and democracy to achieve his plans.""Only in appearance have human rights been invented to safeguard the rights of the people. In actual fact, they are just a way of spreading immorality," the revered cleric added.
