jouhina news, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stressed the importance that Syria remain strong, expressing regret over some countries' incitement of massacres in Syria through sending weapons. In a speech on the sidelines of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) summit in Jeddah, Ahmadinejad said ''Iran has always sought to solve the crisis in Syria through dialogue, and the Iranian people see that national dialogue, not fighting, war and atrocities, is the sole way to solve problems.'' The Iranian president saw it important to reach an agreement between the Syrian government and opposition to implement reforms and exert efforts to solve problems. In the same context, Ahmadinejad said in a speech before the extraordinary Islamic summit in Mecca that ''It is illogical that great powers teach us the lessons of freedom and justice , especially as they are the birthplace of injustice and dictatorship.' The Iranian president considered that ''the enemy has seized the opportunity to deal a blow to us to deprive us of any chance of development.'' Jazaeri: Syria and the Syrian People Are to Win the War The Media Assistant of the Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Massoud Jazaeri, said Syria is a red line for the resistance and any negotiations regarding the Syrian issue should be in the framework of the interest of the resistance and the Syrian people. In a statement to the Iranian Mehr news agency on Wednesday, Jazaeri said the psychological war which the West and its allies have waged against Syria seems to give them the impression that they are to win the war, whereas the indicators and evidence suggest that the winners will be the Syrian regime and people. The Iranian official called for exposing the lies of the US, the international Zionism and the reactionary forces in the region regarding Syria, adding that it is important not to take weak stances towards the countries supporting terrorism against Syria at the upcoming Non-Aligned Movement Summit in Tehran. He added that these countries should assume the responsibility for supporting the terrorism, killing and destruction in the Syrian cities.
