While in a meeting with families belonging to those martyred on June 28th and military advisers martyred, in a battle against ISIS, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution stated the following: In an asymmetrical war, which has been launched against Iran, the immense power that arises from belief in God and jihad is not understood by the enemy. They created ISIS to defeat the Islamic Republic of Iran: Iraq and the region of Levant were prefaces staged to bring Iran down; however, the power of the Islamic Republic brought them down. One who fights in the name of defending the progeny of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)- who is actually defending his society or city is defending Iran.
On another note, Ayatollah Khamenei made the following observations regarding conflict in Bahrain: “In Bahrain there is an authoritarian and egotistic minority oppressing a majority. And now they are attacking the perseverant and knowledgeable scholar Sheikh Isa Qassim; this is blatant foolishness and insanity. Sheikh Isa is the type of man who would prevent extremist tactics. Therefore, these illogical individuals do not understand that by removing Sheikh Isa Qassim they are removing obstacles from the Bahraini, enthusiastic, youth against the regime. Now, no obstacle can prevent these young enthusiasts from rising up.
Ayatollah Khamenei stated: “Whenever and wherever we relied on the revolutionary spirit we progressed. Whenever we withdrew from our values and suppressed our voice, to please the imperialist powers, we remained undeveloped. The path towards progress is reviving the revolutionary spirit and striving for the sake of God.”
