Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani quoted Imam Khomeini as saying that “our policies are the essence of our religion.”

His Eminence pointed out that the main duty of Iran is to build the peoples’ intelligence and increase their insight. He added that Islamic policies are twofold: The first aspect is to separate evil policies from Islamic policies and the second is to be aware of other important aspects of the evil ways of the enemies before they are manifested.

Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani made the remarks during a meeting with Brigadier-General Gholam-Reza Jalali, the head of Iran’s Civil Defense Organization, and his accompanying delegation.

“We must prepare ourselves against them so that all segments of our society, even those in the most remote parts of the country, should be aware of the policies of the US, Zionists and Saudis,” he stressed.

He added that recognition of one’s enemies is a direct command of God in the Quran, adding that Iran’s greatest enemies are the United States and Israel, and added: “In three places in the Holy Quran, God calls upon the believers to prepare themselves to protect against sedition and emphasizes the importance of jihad in the way of God. When the Prophet David killed the tyrannous warrior, Goliath, God granted him wisdom, respect and knowledge. Thus, we should not refrain from jihad and stand on our feet [and resist].”

The Iranian scholar stated the intelligence and awakening of the Iranian nation depends on the peoples’ obedience and compliance to the orders of the Supreme Leader, saying: By the kindness and grace of God, we have a powerful military and its leader is an intelligent, knowledgeable and informed person and if we always obey his commands, our system will be strong and stable.”

Grand Ayatollah Nouri-Hamadani also noted that through Imam Ali’s Nahj al-Balaghah (The Peak of Eloquence), which the late founder of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, Imam Sayyed Ruhollah Khomeini said includes the greatest discussions on governmental and cultural issues, the people can become familiar with the Islamic policies.

The renowned source of emulation said at during the caliphate of Imam Ali, some thought that Mu’awiyah was a better politician than Imam Ali but the Imam said that this is because Mu’awiyah ruled through policies of deception and treachery which are forbidden in Islamic law, and that he was aware of Mu’awiyah’s plans.

“Iran’s rulers have always been intelligent, knowledgeable and insightful and aware of the deception of its enemies,” he said.

And on the boxes can be seen the name of an emir of the state for which David Cameron himself lowers the British flag when the monarch dies. Even this short dispatch may have the effect – fear not – of raising the eyebrows of the Saudi ambassador to London, who has been warning the British that 50,000 UK families may be at risk of losing their livelihoods if we don’t stop whining on about human rights in their Salafist-Wahhabi institutional kingdom.

But relax. Abdul Mohsen bin Walid bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud (born 18 July 1986, according to his diplomatic passport) was reported to have been attempting to fly out of Beirut International Airport with four Saudi chums on his private jet on Sunday. The Lebanese who grabbed them must regret that their customs scanner ever picked up the cargo.

Lebanon is deeply indebted to the Saudis who generously rebuild much of Lebanon every time Israel invades it. The eloquent Lebanese Minister of the Interior Nouhad Machnouk has already denied knowledge of any details of the affair – a likely story – saying that it is “in the hands of the justice [ministry]”.

No doubt. A Lebanese website has even given the name of the judge – Dany Chrabieh – who referred the emir and his four Saudi companions to the country’s Central Office of Combating Drugs. Lebanon’s press is trumpeting the whole affair as one of the biggest suspected drug trafficking hauls in the history of Beirut airport – which has quite a history – and the value of the seized cargo as around £190m. But what was it all for? Were the two tons of Captagon (alleged) to be resold?

Were they to pick up the flagging energies of Saudis enjoying the nightclub pleasures of the world? Militiamen in Lebanon’s wars certainly used drugs to keep on fighting at night. And Lebanon has not always had a perfect reputation when it comes to drugs. The 1975-90 civil war generated a massive hashish industry, which has continued, on and off, in the Baalbek area – in miniature form – ever since. But surely this has no connection.

Al Jazeera, Qatar’s empire-building television channel, has been glorying in the story. Which is not surprising, given the Qatari emir’s frightful relationship with the Saudis. This is the same television channel which put out two interviews with the leader of the Islamist Jabhat al-Nusra in Syria not long ago in an obvious attempt to persuade the Americans that his group was just the kind of “moderate” outfit the Americans should support in Syria’s civil war.

As opposed to Isis which is rather popular among some Saudi citizens. But it’s all a bit embarrassing. If there’s an elderly Briton facing 350 lashes for transporting alcohol in Saudi Arabia, what would the Saudis have done if they found all this Captagon in their own kingdom? Pakistanis and Sri Lankans and others from poor countries suffer head-chopping for less.

But let’s rely on Lebanese justice. Innocent until proved guilty. Lebanon’s large Sunni Muslim community loves Sunni Saudi Arabia. Indeed, two of its prime ministers (Hariri, father and son, both good men) have been Saudi as well as Lebanese citizens. All just one big mistake, surely. Wrongly labeled boxes. Or perhaps a fiendish conspiracy by Saudi’s Hezbollah enemies in Beirut to embarrass the most respected royal family in the Middle East.
