TEHRAN – Tehran’s interim Friday prayer leader has described the United States’ hegemony as the biggest vice that Muslim nations should counter.

“America is dominating weak Islamic countries and some countries are afraid of it,” Ayatollah Mohammad Ali Movahedi Kermani told worshipers, Mehr reported.

He described “foreign hegemony” as the main and most serious trouble in the Islamic community, calling for efforts to “awaken” Muslim nations to that threat.

Movahedi Kermani also slammed Riyadh, Daesh, and Israel as Washington’s stooges.
