‘US, Israel seek to up psywar on Iran’

At least seven people were killed and more than 30 others injured in an explosion on a bus carrying Israeli tourists in eastern Bulgaria on July 18.

The explosion occurred on Wednesday at Burgas International Airport on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, about 400 kilometers (250 miles) east of the Bulgarian capital Sofia.

Israeli and American officials have accused Iran and the Lebanese resistance movement of Hezbollah of carrying out the attack.

Dastgheib dismissed the allegations as propaganda and said, “Iran is used to the US’s wrong stances,” adding that the US has always shown hostility towards the Eastern countries, particularly Iran.

“Unfortunately, once in a while, the US makes different efforts, from military actions and attempt [to establish] direct presence in the region to imposing new restrictions, that are all aimed at isolating Iran.”

The Iranian lawmaker added that Washington wages psychological war against Iran upon orders from Zionist lobbies.

Dastgheib advised the US to resolve its own domestic crises and be accountable for the horrible crimes its terrorists commit in different countries instead of leveling accusations against Iran.

Last Thursday, Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast condemned ‘all terrorist activities anywhere in the world’ and rejected the allegations of Iran’s involvement in the Bulgaria attack.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran, which itself is the biggest victim of terrorism, considers any act that endangers the lives of innocent people in order to fulfill illegitimate political objectives as inhumane and strongly condemns it,” Mehmanparast said.

He added, however, that, “The Zionist regime (Israel), as the biggest sponsor of state and organized terrorism, which has the blood of innocent people in Lebanon, Palestinian, and other countries on its hands, and is responsible for the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientists, engages in making baseless accusations against other countries to escape the attention of the people of the world.”
