Adel Assadinia
Is there anything wrong with the quote from Adel Assadinia that means it is being continually removed from this article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.29.168 (talk) 09:53, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Information
Could someone rewrite information instead of copy and pasting it from other websites. Plagiarism is not good. Thank you. Yassin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.29.168 (talk) 14:06, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Please leave personal opinion out of the article and instead use sourced, published material.--86.157.29.82 (talk) 08:36, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

A user is trying to insert the following into the article. I will respond with comments in an effort to engage them:

"Adel Assadinia is well known for making anti-Iranian political accusations." This is personal opinion. He is a former Iranian legislator and ambassador in the Islamic Republic, so how can he be regarded as "anti-Iranian"?

"In 2007 he claimed that Iran was poised to attack its Gulf neighbours. No any other source attested to the reliability of his claims." This is not true. There are claims of Iranian terrorist involvement in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Kuwait, among other countries, including Nigeria. Here is one report that examines Iran's terrorist threats to Iraq and Kuwait:

"It will not be surprising to see that he is the only person who accused the IMN for training "in guerrilla warfare ... and manufacturing of bombs" when the movement is known for the last thirty years to be engaged in armless activities." There are plenty of accusations and proof of IMN's involvement in terrorism, backed by Iran. See: --86.157.29.82 (talk) 08:46, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Please the reference you gave is not a proof of IMN's involvement in terrorism as no terror attack took place. It is rather an alarm blown. If accusation is proof of guilt then all accused persons are guilty. The police commander who first raised the alarm later contradicted himself when he wrote that 'the Shiites were not threatening the peace of the State’. What is your comment on the removal of reference to the so called police-moslem-clash with pictures and video clips? Pictures and video clips of the ‘clash’ are available in the net. Is this mare opinion or an attempt to conceal facts with proofs? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tajomalli (talk • contribs) 13:35, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Many government and international sources have highlighted the terrorist threat posed by Zakzaky and his followers. Assadinia is just one. I can provide more if you wish. I stated in the article that there were injuries and deaths on both sides - which is factual - and that "The IMN accuses the government of intimidation and attempting to wipe it out" - which is an accusation Zakzaky has made. I've also said that Zakzaky claims he does not support violence, although his words and deeds may contradict this position. There is balance in this article, most of which you wrote. It is important that both views of Zakzaky are represented, the views of his followers and his critics.--86.157.29.82 (talk) 16:11, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

How many children?
"Currently, he has only 3 of his children (one son and two daughters) alive...Six of his sons have been killed in a period between 2014 and 2015" does not agree with the earlier assertion in the article that he had six children in total. Can anyone find a source mentioning the deaths of the three "missing" sons, (who did not die at the Zaria Quds day massacre, so probably might have died in 2015)?--Quisqualis (talk) 19:19, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I finally figured it out. Three sons did die in 2015, in the 2015 Zaria massacre.--Quisqualis (talk) 20:58, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
