TEHRAN (FNA 27.1.2010)- Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution
Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei on Tuesday reminded the hostile policies and
animosities shown by the US administrations and Zionists towards the
Iranian nation, and cautioned that no one should ever pin hope or trust in
such inimical states.
"During the past 30 years, US administrations, the Zionist regime (of
Israel) and worldwide Zionists have been the most hostile enemies of the
Iranian nation and they are, in fact, the most hostile enemies of Iran
today as well, and relying on these enemies is a big mistake," Ayatollah
Khamenei said at a meeting in Tehran with a large and fervent congregation
of the people, religious figures and officials who came from the city of
Amol in Iran's northern province of Mazandaran to pay homage to the
Supreme Leader.
"When enemy enters the scene, we should pay attention to situation and
correct our deeds if we have been or done anything wrong," the Supreme
Leader said.
Ayatollah Khamenei further cautioned that enemies, despite their
previous failures, are hatching a new plot against the Iranian nation.
"Americans say that they have ratified a $45-million budget to overcome
the Islamic Republic of Iran through internet, and this shows enemy's
complete despondency since they have already spent tens of these
$45-million budgets to confront the Islamic establishment through
diplomatic campaign, sanctions, espionage, hiring hirelings and
mercenaries and other methods, but, they have never gained any fruit."
Addressing the West, the Leader underscored that the Iranian nation
would stand firm in attaining its rights and would never backtrack on this
path.
"The Iranian nation wants to be an independent, dynamic, progressive
and powerful nation to fulfill Islamic laws and defend its rights and
beliefs," he reiterated.
Earlier in November, Ayatollah Khamenei underlined the necessity for
proper measures to repel enemy's soft war against Iran.
"Today, the main priority of the country is to confront (enemy's) soft
warfare which is aimed at creating doubt, discord and pessimism among the
masses of people," Ayatollah Khamenei said.
"Given the failure of the arrogant powers in the hard confrontation
with the Islamic ruling system in the first decade after the (Islamic)
Revolution, soft war has now come on the enemy's agenda, so confrontation
against enemy's soft war is the main priority today," the Leader noted.
"In soft war, enemy seeks to create doubt, pessimism and discord by
spreading rumors and lies and using certain excuses through advanced
cultural and communication means," Ayatollah Khamenei noted.

Islamic Revolution Leader Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei in a meeting
with thousands of people from northern Mazandaran province Tuesday said
there are many lessons in historical events that the nation could take in
its future path, adding that different plots of enemy were futile during
the past due to the faith and vigilance of people.
Ayatollah Khamenei said some nations failed in their national
aspirations because they were unprepared for facing with the challenges
ahead and therefore their history could teach us to be ready for the
threats ahead.
Ayatollah Khamenei then noted that in the past thirty years, the
opponents of the Islamic System have made two major mistakes; they
considered themselves superior to people and have relied on the enemies of
the Iranian nation.
Ayatollah Khamenei elaborated that the superior mood had caused the
opponents to brand any legal action or choice of people as populist. The
IR Leader added that the opponents of the System were seriously wrong in
their reliance on enemies.
The IR Leader said that the US plots in the past thirty years were
evidently futile, adding that a clear proof to the argument was that the
Islamic Republic of Iran was many times more powerful than the early
revolutionary period and keeps its path more robustly.
Ayatollah Khamenei expressed wonder that the enemies fail to take
lesson from their past records and continue to push their plots against
the Iranian nation.
"American authorities say they have approved a 45 million dollar budget
to defeat the Islamic Republic through the Internet. This is the height of
frustration of enemy because they have already spent many 45 million
dollar sums in their fight against the Islamic System through diplomacy,
sanctions, dispatching of spies, recruitment of henchmen and other methods,
all futile," the IR Leader said.
The Leader of Islamic Revolution referred to enemies' inability to
comprehend the reality of 1979 Revolution and power of the masses as the
will of God and said the enemies of Iranian nation had long planned to
incite riots in Tehran, but their efforts only made people become more
determined in defending the Islamic Republic.
Ayatollah Khamenei asserted that recent events caused people to feel
more obliged to defend the Islamic Republic.
The Leader of Islamic Revolution said some of the enemy plots were
designed to make the Islamic Republic to budge, adding however that the
Islamic administration will not budge to enemy and the late Imam Khomeini
did too.
Ayatollah Khamenei said the nation has stood firm in demanding their
rights and added that Iranians want to be a free, independent, and
developing nation.
Ayatollah Khamenei said according to Islamic teachings, if the
followers of truth are sincere they would overcome any obstacles and what
the people have learned since the revolution has proven this.
Active participation in the scene was what the Leader of Islamic
Revolution noted as the crucial duty of the people and officials
especially the younger generation and those influential in the society.
The Leader of Islamic revolution added that everyone ought to feel
responsible in defending the Islamic Republic of Iran and the December 30
rallies were the manifestation of this sense of responsibility. He added
that people will show their liveliness in the forthcoming February 11
rallies.
"The heads of three powers in the country should think of serving the
nation with prudence as their solemn duty and should not let anything
deter them in their task," The Leader of Islamic Revolution said and added
that the country's forward movement shouldn't be obstructed.
Ayatollah Khamenei also spoke of numerous evidences that show the hand
of God is behind the nation. He expressed hope that with the help of God
and Imam Mahdi's praying the nation will achieve its lofty goals.

fighting against the Last Messenger of God and those who stood against
Imam Ali only that the latter pretended to support Islam, the Quran and
the Messenger.
The Leader of Islamic Revolution concluded that since the early stages
of the Islamic Revolution the US, UK, royalists, and the rest of the
arrogant powers fought against the late Imam Khomeini and it has continued
to the present.
Ayatollah Khamenei asserted that nothing has changed and the enemies of
the Islamic Government has been lining up since before the election.

the custodians of the revolution and constant fear for the arrogant powers.
The IR Leader then said that the arrogant powers have faced a defeat in
their assessments about the recent developments in Iran, adding that the
awareness of the Iranian nation has foiled their plots and that the
imperialists try to prevent the Islamic Ummah from hearing the voice of
foresight and preparedness of the nation.
The IR Leader said the anger of the youths across the country over the
desecration of Ashura and Imam Hossein (AS) was natural, adding however
that all people should be cautious not to help the enemy sedition by
taking uncontrolled moves.

sedition adding we should perform cautiously and decide on time so that
the enemy plot is foiled.

rallies was a final notice, adding that the heads of the three branches of
the government heard the nation's demands and should do their duties
against rioters.

economic and scientific progress and hinder the strong presence of the
Islamic Republic at international arenas.
The IR Leader then described the huge presence of the nation as the
most significant support for the system. He rejected the charges of the
alien media that the December 30 rallies were arranged by the government,
adding by making such charges, the enemy inadvertently acknowledged that
the Islamic Republic enjoys a strong public approval and that no
government in the world could arrange such a huge national gathering and
bring peo ple to the streets in the course of two days.
Ayatollah Khamenei said under the auspices of Imam Khomeini and
sacrifice of the martyrs, the people and the government have formed a
single reality and that all the authorities, he himself too, make drops of
the large ocean of nation
