    Blasphemous cartoon, insult to divine prophets: Younesi


    President's Special Advisor for Religious Affairs Ali Younesi said
    Iran's religious and cultural teachings stress respect for all divine
    religions, adding that the Islamic Republic is committed to support
    the rights of all religious minorities.

    In a meeting with the Archbishop of the Armenian Church Neses Bedros
    XIX here on Sunday, Younesi said Iranian Armenians are part of the old
    history of the country and all Iranian ethnic groups have lived
    together peacefully throughout history, IRNA reported.

    He thanked the Pope Francis 1st for his firm position on the abusive
    cartoon in the French magazine, saying it was not only an insult to
    Islam but to all divine prophets.

    Stressing that all such sacriledges are masterminded by Zionists,
    Younesi said, 'Certain sophisticated and secret activities are pushing
    the world toward atheism and insecurity. While the Middle East needs
    security, the Zionists are creating insecurity, hatred, and enmity in
    different ways.'

    Referring to President Rouhani's proposal at the United Nations to
    make a world without extremism and violence, he said the Islamic
    Republic is fighting against terrorist groups.

    The Archbishop of the Armenian Church, for his part, expressed
    pleasure over his trip to Iran and meeting with high-ranking officials
    and minority members of the Parliament, saying it is obvious that the
    minorities in Iran are living in peace having no special problem which
    is resulted from the government's efforts.

    Referring to the insulting cartoon in the French magazine, the
    archbishop said freedom of speech does not let anyone insult other
    religions.
