The Baha\u2019ism leaders have constantly emphasized on the separation of religion and policy. They are always insisting on the lack of bond between Baha\u2019ism<\/a> and the policy world. Abbas Effendi believed in the separation between religion and policy as necessity. \u201cHe has also said: \u201cThe criterion for being Baha\u2019i or not is that a person who meddles with policy and speaks out of his\/her duty, this proof is adequate for him\/her not to be a Baha\u2019i. It doesn\u2019t need any other reason.\u201d He has also said: \u201cThe Baha\u2019is don\u2019t belong to political affairs.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the war, the Baha\u2019is supported Israel contrary to their slogan of \u201cthe universal peace\u201d instead of denouncing the Zionists as aggressive and the initiator of war. At that time, the Baha\u2019is collected 120 million Tumans to be sent to Haifa, the universal house of justice to help the Israeli army, according to SAVAK documents.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    1. On October 1973 A.D., the army of the Islamic countries attacked the Zionists to retake their lands. The Egyptian troops passed the Suez Canal quickly and passed the great wall of Barlow which was catted unconquerable by the Zionists. In other fronts, Syria and Jordan chastened the Zionists.
