Fadahossain Maleki, a member of the Parliament’s National Security Commission, told House of Nation News Agency: “The proposal to form an Islamic NATO against the Western NATO has been accepted by many Islamic countries, and given the widespread crimes of Israel and the United States, the formation of such an alliance for preserving the dignity of Islamic countries is an unavoidable necessity.”

Maleki added: “If an alliance and unity among Islamic countries is created, the United States and Israel will never dare to continue their crimes in Palestine, Lebanon and Yemen.”
