My Way News - Iran replaces reformist cleric for annual sermon
My Way News reports: "Iran has replaced a reformist, pro-opposition cleric with a hard-liner to lead the prayer service on a key anti-Israel day this week, according to a state radio report Wednesday. [...] Rafsanjani traditionally holds the sermon on Quds Day - an annual event that showcases Iran's anti-Israeli stance and is marked by government-organized rallies in support of the Palestinians and against Israel. Quds is Arabic for Jerusalem."

Comment: You know, Jerusalem is not mentioned in the Koran at all, but as soon as Israel took control of the entire city in 1967 it suddenly became central to Islam. Now they have an entire day devoted to the notion that they must "liberate" Jerusalem from the Jews.
