A senior Russian parliamentary official and leader of the ultranationalist
Liberal Democratic Vladimir Zhirinovsky believes that a US attack on Iran is
inevitable, he has told Ekho Moskvy radio station.
“The war is inevitable because the Americans want this war,” he said. “Any
country claiming a leading position in the world will need to wage wars.
Otherwise it will simply not be able to retain its leading position. The date
for the strike is already known — it is the election day in Israel (March 28).
It is also known how much that war will cost,” Zhirinovsky said.
He went on to add that the publication of Prophet Muhammad cartoons in the
European press was a planned action by the U.S. whose aim is “to provoke a row
between Europe and the Islamic world”. “It will all end with European countries
thanking the United States and paying, and giving soldiers,” he said. Russia
should “choose a position of non-interference and express minimal solidarity
with the Islamic world”, Zhirinovsky added.
For his part, the head of the Centre for Strategic Studies of Religions and
Modern World Politics, Maxim Shevchenko, also believes that a U.S. attack on
Iran is very likely although he sees no preconditions for this war. “Iran does
not threaten anyone, is not pointing its missiles at anyone. No Iranian leader
has ever threatened to carry out a strike against the U.S. Therefore
preparations for a war against Iran appear to be a global act of provocation,”
he said.
In Shevchenko’s opinion, the reason behind “this barefaced promotion of a world
war lies not in a conflict between the West and the Islamic World but in a fight
for power in the world between US and European elites”. “The fate of humanity
will be decided between a saber-rattling America and an allegedly democratic
Europe,” Shevchenko concluded.
