Top Bahraini cleric denounces Arab states for serving US-Israeli agendas to deepen regional divisions
Ayatollah Sheikh Isa Qassim, the leader of Bahrain’s Shia community, has denounced regional Arab and Muslim states for contributing to US and Israeli efforts to deepen divisions across the region.
Speaking about recent regional developments and the state of the global Muslim Ummah (Nation) on Sunday, Sheikh Qassim sharply criticized the subservience of a number of Arab and Muslim states to Washington and Tel Aviv.
“It is no secret to any of the ... regimes in the Arab and Muslim world that the United States and the Zionist regime have sinister and conspiratorial positions, agendas, and plans. We are witnessing a poisonous culture of division being promoted through their media with the aim of dismantling the unity of the Muslim Ummah,” he stated.
“Such an approach is intended to deepen divisions among official regimes at the regional and national levels, with an intense focus on religious and sectarian dimensions in order to create the most severe forms of discord and to perpetuate the creation of problems and the outbreak of destructive and incendiary conflicts,” he added.

The cleric said that substantial financial resources are being devoted to these “conspiratorial plans,” whose objective is to fuel destructive and devastating conflicts that drain the resources of Arab and Muslim nations and target their common existence.
Despite being aware of the ongoing conspiracy, a significant number of the regional countries participate in fomenting conflicts and civil wars while presenting them as disputes rooted in sectarian or religious differences, he said.
The conduct of these countries, he added, amounts to a willingness to see the Arab and Muslim world be consumed by conflict.
“They take pleasure in seeing the Arab-Islamic world burn, and their eyes will not be satisfied until the Arab and Islamic peoples become like humiliated slaves, submitting to the will of American hegemony and tyranny and that of the usurping Zionist regime.”
