The Baha’i proselytizers are introducing the claim for the relationship with the Colonialism as of the accusation recently announced by the Baha’ism enemies; while the self-proclaimed prophet of Baha’ism confessed Baha’ism has been supported by czar Russia Colonialism. He has considered this support as the divine one. However, does the common sense accept the divine intention claim of the occupier and the treacherous one?!
Of course, if the behavior of contemporary period is being investigated, it will be clear that this relationship has been redefined by the presence of the newly-emerged Colonialists such as America in the current conditions with Israel.
In the beginning of the emergence of the Baha’ism cult, we must investigate the reason for supporting the deviant cult of Baha’ism by the czar Russian Colonialism; although the Russian emperor at that time was the enemy of Iranian people and occupied most regions of our country!
At the same time; in the historical documents, the presence of the Russian and supporting Bab and Baha by the czar Russian embassy we quite clear; but the main question is that why such supports have been done.
The Baha’i leaders have confessed the supports of the Colonial powers in many cases. So, the self-proclaimed prophet of Baha’ism has said about supporting Baha’ism by the czar Russian emperor: “Because the Russian government observed a great number of Baha’is in its country wanted to discover their aims. It collected all books and writings of them and formed an assembly and investigated those books, epistles and tablets and found out this party’s aims and its teachings and commandments. After these investigations, it supported the oppressed party in its country[1].”
The important note is that even supporting that we ignore this emperor’s occupation and crimes against the country and the Iranian people and accept the irrational claim by Hussein Ali Nouri; why have we received any report regarding the czar Russian emperor to believe in Baha’ism?
The then Russian government as one the top enemies of Iran and Islam, most of the cities of our country have been seized during several Colonial contracts in order to put the major population of Iran who were Shiite in minority and to destroy the spirit of fighting against arrogance by the Baha’is.[2] Consequently, it made the following cities as safe places for the Baha’is: Bukhara, Samar Kand, Ashgabad, Tashkand and Merv.[3]
Nevertheless, the conditions of Pahlavi period of time for Baha’ism and the establishment of the center of Baha’ism organization in the occupied lands of Palestine and the close relationships of this cult with the British service and later on with America prepared a facilities to keep aloof from the Russian and to turn to the American.
