Iranian Academic: West Falsifying Definition of Resistance in West Asia
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Foad Izadi, a professor of American Studies at the University of Tehran, said the US is busy performing massive media and entertaining activities to falsify the definition of resistance in West Asia.
Speaking to the Resistance International Film Festival, Izadi said Washington’s policy puts pressure on the involved countries to represent resistance correctly, as it is the resistance movement that is opposing the US presence in West Asia and the Muslim world.
He said not only the US citizens, but also people of other countries are affected by Washington’s such efforts, adding the US battle is not limited to the West Asia region but includes wherever there is a resistance against their activities.
“There is a huge campaign against the resistance movement not only in the Middle East but elsewhere”, he said.
Izadi said the universality of the US campaign against resistance is a perfect cause to confront them via resistance both on the real and virtual battlegrounds.
“You see what they are doing to Latin American countries that are resisting US pressure and because of that, those who are in the resistance movement need to be more active in areas that deal with media and entertainment.”
