Iran justifies it's stance on Baha'is
In addition to cooperation and connection with colonialists supporting and accompanying the dictatorships have been among the principles of this sect.
The tie between Bahaism and the Pahlavi regime reached it peak after the coup of 19 August 1953 and the Bahaists mounted to the highest political, economic, cultural and military positions in the last two decades of the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
Presence of the leaders of this misled sect in the important political, military and economic positions also prepared the ground for expansion of its propagation activities against the Shiites in the cradle of Shiites (Iran) from which they took the highest benefit.
It is noteworthy that ties to colonialists still continue in the forms of official support of the white House and the Occupier Regime of Palestine for them and the apparent cooperation against the Islamic republic of Iran.

The Two Mirzas
What do they say for each other?This is what the Ahmadiyyas have to say regarding the Baha'is :
The following important differences between the Ahmadiyya claims and the Bahai claims :
1. One of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's basic aims was to teach the world the Islamic doctrine of the absolute oneness of God, which strongly rejects the concept that any human being can ever be a manifestation of God. The Bahai teachings are that there have been various manifestations of God on earth (Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, Baha-ullah). Therefore Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was teaching the opposite of the Bahai beliefs.
2. As noted above, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad proclaimed that the Islamic scripture, teachings and law are valid forever, and will never be abrogated or replaced. Again this is exactly the opposite of Bahai beliefs which teach that Baha-ullah's scripture and law have abrogated and replaced the Holy Quran and the Shari'ah of Islam.
3. The Prophet Muhammad taught that prophets before him had been sent by God to all nations, and he required his followers (Muslims) to believe in all of them. Moreover, he taught, as stated in the Quran, that these prophets had prophesied to their nations of the appearance of the Prophet Muhammad and had instructed their followers to believe in that Promised Prophet when he came. So the Prophet Muhammad became the converging point of the previous prophets and religions. He addressed the whole of humanity, while the previous prophets addressed only their individual nations. He was thus the Last and Final Prophet through whom all humanity is to be united.
To preach the oneness of humanity and to seek to unite religions on fundamentals in the seventh century, as the Prophet Muhammad did, at a time when no one even knew what the whole world consisted of, is a clear proof of the Prophet Muhammad getting revelation and knowledge from God. But for someone in the nineteenth century like Bahaullah to repeat similar ideas (i.e. unity of humanity) cannot be called new revelation coming from God, particularly when he himself originally arose from within the religion of Islam.

These are the ideas of Baha'is regarding Ahmadiyya Muslims :
While some of the few quotes of their (Ahmadi) writings I have read seem quite forceful and rarely seem inspired, the correlations to Baha'i scripture is quite astounding. Their founder also claims to be the Mahdi and Messiah, as well as claiming the same ties to Buddhism and Hinduism. They also promote non-violence and uphold jihad as personal struggle not the waring aspects Muslims have accepted widely.
They differ in many ways, they uphold more closely everything in the Qu'ran and much of their writings are about this book. He also claims Jesus didn't actually die on the cross, but rather journeyed to India where he died an old man of natural causes.
Obviously, I do not believe time based prophecies apply since it was founded in 1889, thus 45 years late for Jewish, Christian, Muslim, and Hindu prophecy at least. They also call their leader Caliph, which I agree with Riggs is the mark of the beast - the 666 referred to in Revelation. Still, it is interesting, could their leader have been exposed to Baha'u'llahs writings at this time? There are already 200 million members of this group apparently, so I think it would be a valuable group to target with pioneering, they already accept many things Baha'u'llah has said so presenting time based prophecies might be enough to bring them to the Baha'i Faith?
I sort of liken them to Mormonism in that they have writings that correlate to what Baha'u'llah has said - and in the case of Mormonism, accurately describes the Baha'i dispensations coming - however entirely focus on a previous dispensation rather than bringing anything new.

Visit by family members of Bahá’í prisoners to Washington, D.C.
On February 7–11, 2011, four U.S.-based family members of imprisoned Bahá’ís visited Washington, D.C., to assist in advocacy efforts on behalf of their loved ones. Meetings were scheduled with members of Congress, the State Department, and the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, and a news conference was held in collaboration with Amnesty International at its Washington office.Their visit was covered in articles by CNN, Agence France-Presse (AFP), The Huffington Post, Beliefnet, and the Religion News Service. The AFP story was reposted by several sites including Yahoo. A live broadcast February 10 on BBC Persian Television included a three-minute interview with Mr. Iraj Kamalabadi, whose sister is Ms. Fariba Kamalabadi, one of the imprisoned former members of the Yárán. (Later that day, Mr. Kamalabadi said his sister's husband told him on the phone that he saw the broadcast.) The family members were also interviewed in Persian by Radio Free Europe (Radio Farda), Voice of America (Persian Service) radio, and BBC Persian, which also did a recorded radio segment.
In addition, on March 31, 2011, Dr. Farzad Kamalabadi, another brother of Ms. Kamalabadi, spoke about her at a reception attended by some 150 human rights activists and congressional staff on Capitol Hill for the Congressional International Religious Freedom Caucus.

ماهيت و اهداف طرح روحي
«طرح روحي» توسط يكي از بهائيان مهاجر ايراني به نام روحي ارباب، چند سال قبل طراحي شد. پس از بررسي و تصويب «بيت العدل حيفا» - به عنوان بالاترين نهاد تصميم گيرنده فرقه ضاله بهائيت در سطح جهان - به عنوان يك طرح آزمايشي در كشور كلمبيا اجرا گرديد.اين طرح در جريان اجراي آزمايشي آن در كلمبيا كه مدت ده سال به طول انجاميد، به طور مستمر و مداوم ارزشيابي مي شد و نتايج اين بررسي ها و ارزيابي ها در اختيار مركزيت بهائيت (بيت العدل حيفا) قرار مي گرفت.
سرانجام «بيت العدل حيفا» پس از پايان مرحله ده ساله آزمايشي اين طرح، تصميم گرفت، تا «طرح روحي» به عنوان يك «راهنماي عمل» به تمام محافل بهايي ابلاغ شود و موارد مطرح شده در آن مورد اجرا قرار گيرد.
يكي از مهمترين اهداف «طرح روحي» ايجاد بسترهاي لازم براي افزايش آمار تعداد بهائيان است و مسئولان مركزيت بهائيت براي ايجاد سهولت در دستيابي به اين هدف، با يك برنامه ريزي گسترده، مؤسساتي را تحت عنوان «مؤسسه آموزشي» در كشورهاي مختلف ايجاد كردند كه براساس آخرين آمارهاي منتشره از سوي مركزيت بهائيت تعداد اينگونه مراكز آموزشي بيش از يكصد مركز مي رسد.
مركزيت بهائيت براي دستيابي به اهداف «طرح روحي» زمان بندي هاي مشخصي را معين كرده اند كه شامل «نقشه هاي پنج ساله» و «نقشه هاي چهار ساله» است كه بعد از آن نيز يك نقشه دوازده ماهه و يك نقشه پنج ساله در نظر گرفته شده است. شعار اصلي نقشه پنج ساله «دخول افواج مقبلين» نام دارد. مؤسسات آموزشي كه بهائيان در ارتباط با «طرح روحي» ايجاد كرده اند، افزون بر هيأت مديره، زير نظر مشاور قاره اي بهائيت كه از سوي «بيت العدل حيفا» معرفي و تأييد شده است، اداره مي گردد. تبليغات فرقه بهائيت در كشورهاي اسلامي، بويژه خاورميانه به دليل حساسيت هاي خاصي كه در مورد آن وجود دارد، براساس يك استراتژي ويژه اي كه از سوي مركزيت بهائيت بدان نام «استراتژي خاموش و پنهان» داده شده، اداره مي شود و براي تحقق اهداف اين استراتژي در كشورهاي مسلمان زمان بيشتري در نظر گرفته اند و تا سال 2021 ميلادي براي رسيدن به اهداف مورد نظر وقت و فرصت معين كرده اند. فعاليت «طرح روحي» در ايران سه سال قبل با پيام 26 نوامبر 2003 ميلادي بيت العدل حيفا آغاز شد. شيوه فعاليت اجرايي «طرح روحي» با فعاليت هاي گذشته بهائيان ايران تفاوت اساسي دارد.
فرقه ضاله بهائيت به امر تبليغات، بهاي زيادي مي دهد و هر سال ميليون ها دلار هزينه كارهاي تبليغاتي مي كند.براي بهائيان اثر تبليغات منفي، نيز به اندازه تبليغات مثبت حائزاهميت است و از رهگذر همين اعتقاد است كه بيت العدل حيفا، افزون بر ميليون ها دلار هزينه براي خريد «فضا» و «وقت» از ماهواره هاي گوناگون و كمك هاي چشمگير به تلويزيون هاي ماهواره اي، مدتي است كه تبليغات رذيلانه اي را درباره اعزام دختران ايراني به شيخ نشين هاي خليج فارس، راه انداخته است. من ترديد ندارم كه اگر درباره گروه هايي كه اينگونه دختران را به سوداي بردن به اروپا و آمريكا مي فريبند و آنها را به مراكز فحشا در «دبي» و ديگر نقاط به بيگاري كثيف وا مي دارند، تحقيق شود، بدون ترديد با اين واقعيت مواجه مي شويم كه تمام گروه هاي فعال در اين كار ضدانساني، بهايي هستند. مديران و كاركنان اينگونه گروه ها، با مأموريت از سوي «بيت العدل حيفا» و با هدف بدنام ساختن جمهوري اسلامي - به عنوان «تبليغات منفي» و يك برنامه كارشناسانه از پيش تدوين شده به اين اقدامات روي آورده اند. «بيت العدل حيفا» كوشيده است، تا در اين دور از فعاليت جديد و در اجراي «طرح روحي» در حد و اندازه يك «اپوزيسيون فعال» موضع بگيرد و اين امر را مي توان از پيام 26 نوامبر 2003 «بيت العدل حيفا» دريافت.
