Friday, day of roaring of free nations against Zionist regime
Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei addressing the visiting heads of three branches of power and a number of the Islamic Republic of Iran's officials on Wednesday evening, pointed to the two defeats of the criminal Zionist regime in Al-Aqsa Storm Operation in Gaza, saying, "This year's Quds Day, God willing, with the spectacular presence of the Iranian nation and Muslim and free nations, will turn into an international roaring against the usurper regime."
Emphasizing that we shouldn't let the important issue of Gaza get out of the world public opinion priority, described the crimes of the Zionist regime including genocide, massacre and attacking women and children, patients and hospitals unprecedented in the history of recent eras, the Leader added, "The crimes have reached the point that even those brought up in the Western culture in Europe and America have raised their voice in protest."
Summing up the 6-month war, Ayatollah Khamenei called the Zionist regime defeated in two aspects, and stated, "Their first defeat was on October 7 and Al-Aqsa Storm Operation which imposed an intelligence defeat on the regime, claiming to have intelligence and military dominance, from a Resistance group with limited facilities, and this defeat and scandal of the Zionist regime has never been and will never be repaired."
Calling the second defeat of Zionists their failure to achieve their announced goals in attacking Gaza, and referring to the Zionists' enjoying all-out military-financial-political supports of the Americans, including veto of resolutions and naked lie of calling the recent resolution as non-binding, the Leader reiterated, "Despite all these supports, Zionists failed to achieve even one of their announced goals."
Imam Khamenei stated, "They wanted to annihilate the Resistance group and cause it to bog down, whereas today, Hamas and the Islamic Jihad and the Resistance of Gaza as a whole are dealing blows to the usurper regime while enduring problems."
Considering the savage carnage of innocent women and children stemming from the inability of Zionists in front of the Resistance combatants, the Leader went on to say, "The defeat of Zionists will definitely continue and their futile efforts such as what they did in Syria - which they will surely receive its slap - will not cure their problems."
Imam Khamenei, stressing that it is impossible to rescue the Zionists from the trap which they themselves have fallen in, added, "The Zionist regime will get weaker and nearer to dissolution and annihilation day by day, and we hope that our youths will see the day in which noble Quds is in the hand of Muslims and they are praying in it and the Islamic world is celebrating the dissolution of the usurper regime."
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution, considered the establishment of the Islamic Republic system as a great opportunity for the Islamic world and, stressing the increasing power of the Islamic system, said, "The regional calculations and the situation of the Resistance Front and the opposite front has changed after Al-Aqsa Storm Operation and in the future this will change, too. And the enemies of Islam, the Resistance and the Islamic Republic of Iran, while inevitably capitulating to these developments, should know that they cannot rule in this region among the Islamic community."
Elsewhere in his remarks, Ayatollah Khamenei described working for people and their welfare and for the progress of Iran as working for God, stressing, "Striving for solving the people's problem, means to have a divine intention, and God will surely reward and bless this striving."
Imam Khamenei, also clarified the does and don’ts of materialization of this year's theme, "Leap in Production with People's Participation" as non-intervention of the government and the state", and said, "To bring the financial and intellectual ability and people's initiatives is very beneficial for the country."
He called human capacities as natural capacities, saying, "Iranian nation's enjoying higher talent and intelligence than the average global one, 36 million youths, 14 million with high education, 3 million students, more than one hundred scientific board members, and over 150 thousand physicians are among Iran's unique human capacities."
Ayatollah Khamenei considered people's expectation for improvement of economic condition feasible with respect to the extraordinary capacities in the country, and said, "Enjoying nearly 7 percent of the global natural resources with 64 important mineral substances, and that while Iran has almost 1 percent of the world population, is a very suitable capacity and opportunity."
The Leader also referred to having approximately 37 million hectares of arable lands, possibility of water management for complete use of this very important capacity in agriculture and Iran's standing on the global high ranks of products such as steel, cement, and other natural capacities in the country.
