    Iranian MPs condemn ISIL terrorist acts in Syria


    TEHRAN, Mar. 01 (MNA) - Some representatives of Iran's Parliament took
    part in a press conference held in Mehr News Agency on ISIL crimes
    over Assyrian Christian men, women and children last Monday.

    During the conference, they unanimously condemned the terrorist act by
    ISIL group who attacked residents of about 10 lightly guarded Assyrian
    villages south of the Khabur River in northeastern Syria, killing the
    residents, burning homes and churches and taking hostages.

    Nearly 1,000 Assyrian families in northeastern Syria have run for
    their lives in the wake of the abduction of at least 150 members of
    the community by the ISIL Takfiri terrorists.

    Iranian MP Yunaten Bet Kelia, who represents the Assyrian and Chaldean
    communities in the Parliament, has written a letter to UN
    Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon where he called the UN to prepare
    'appropriate response' to ISIL's recent kidnapping of 250 Assyrians in
    Syria.

    Iranian MP representing the Armenian Christian community in the north
    of the country Karen Khanlari, while condemning the recent tragedy
    occured by ISIL terrorist group against Assyrians in Syria, expressed
    regret over Security Council and United Nation's silence and inaction
    over terrorist crimes against innocent people in Syria.

    He called upon the world to make their efforts to eradicate ISIL which
    is more like the advent of Nazism in Europe.

    Iranian MP Vahid Ahmadi also slammed the heinous crime by ISIL and
    said the terrorist group aims at provoking panic and horror against
    innocent people.

    He criticized some enemies who support ISIL and ensured if they stop
    backing terrorism, the world can get rid of those groups who endanger
    the lives of people in the region.

    Iranian MP representing the Armenian Christian community in the south
    of the country Robert Biglari also strongly criticized the
    international community for remaining silent against terrorism. He
    underlined more serious measures and acts on behalf of UN and Security
    Council against ISIL terrorist group, urging them to revise the
    obligations they are committed to.

    He said ISIL is a multidimensional phenomenon which acts beyond
    national dimensions.

    "In addition to recruiting forces from all over the world," Biglari
    said, "ISIL terrorist group brainwashes its recruited forces and has a
    high influence on their thoughts and beliefs."

    Asked about Iran's diplomacy over treating ISIL and regional issues,
    Mr. Ahmadi said the Islamic Republic of Iran uses strategies like
    condemnation, objection, sending messages to international community
    and Iranian foreign ministry's consultations with Assyrian community
    to pursue the event.
