Khamenei: Unity between Islamic nations is possible but needs work. We have not lost hope in the politicians & rulers of Islamic countries but our greatest hope is in their elites: religious scholars, intellectuals, professors, discerning youth, poets, writers, the press, etc
Khamenei: One who creates discord in the Islamic world is serving the enemy. We have responded strongly to those who under the name of supporting the Shia have provoked the feelings of Sunni brothers. This requires a response from everyone. Of course, some go to extremes on both sides
Khamenei: I once referred to the British Shia. Some falsely said what we mean by British Shia is the Shia living in England. No, we mean the people who follow the British in creating discord, the conflict-inciting Shia. They're like Wahhabis & Takfiris who serve the enemy in this way
"We will be taking action." Says top EU diplomat on Iran drones for Russia. Awaiting conclusion of independent assessment, official says
Khamenei: Unity between Muslims means being united in protecting the interests of the Islamic nation. During talks, let's 1st identify the enemies, the friends, the interests of the Islamic nation, & agree on stances to be taken. This is acting in unity against the Arrogant Powers' plans
Khamenei: The enemies are working to do something so that the Zionist government, this cancerous cell, won't be called "the enemy" anymore. They wish to create more discord between the countries of the region. These normalizations are one of the biggest acts of treachery against the Muslims
Khamenei: The enemy wants the opposite of unity between Muslims today. They created a cancerous cell in the region, the Zionistgovernment, to serve as a base for Western enmity against Islam. They brought the murderous, brutal Zionists to oppressed Palestine creating a fake govt to do this
Khamenei: The Muslim nations' current sufferings are due to their division. This is what happens when we're divided, not concerned about each other, & even hostile to each other at times. The Quran says, "When you're divided, you'll be humiliated." Thus, you'll help others to dominate you
Khamenei: Global imperialism rejoices at the suffering of Muslims. Why are Muslim nations suffering like this Why are the Muslims suffering economically, politically, & from aggression, colonialism, civil wars, etc. One of the most important reasons is the division of the Muslims
Khamenei: One of the lessons from ProphetMuhammad for the Islamic nation is, "The Prophet grieves for your suffering." Of course, this doesn't just refer to Muslims at the time of the Prophet. It means the sufferings of the Muslims in Palestine, Myanmar, etc. today grieve his pure soul
Khamenei: The Holy Prophet's character is unique in the entire universe. His birthday is a very important, great day. Calling the birthday of the Prophet an Eid is not just for holding a celebration & commemorating him. It is also for learning from him & setting the Prophet as an example
Khamenei: On the occasion of the anniversary of the births of the ProphetMuhammad & Imam Sadiq (pbut), the Leader of the Islamic Revolution met with the heads of the three branches of govt, a number of officials, & the guests participating in the International Islamic Unity Conference

Khamenei: Those who participated in the riots aren't all of the same type. Some are agents of or in line with the enemy. Others are just agitated. They shouldn't be judged the same. For the latter, cultural work is needed. For the former, judiciary & security officials must do their duty
Khamenei: The Iranian nation's taking the initiative in confronting the Arrogant Powers attracts other nations to Iran. The Iranian nation's moves reflect their religious inclination & the youth's high-spiritedness. This is naturally 180 degrees against what the US wants to see in Iran
2 year agoProtests continue in Gohardasht, Karaj, Iran
Khamenei: The enemy saw the Iranian nation's successes & them emerging in the region & beyond. They couldn't tolerate it & tried to plan riots in Iran for early October. But what is important is that the enemy's action was reactive. It's the Iranian nation that has taken the initiative
Khamenei: The enemies planning in the recent riots in Iran has been a passive reaction, not initiative. In a short time, the Iranian nation has carried out several great movements that are 180 degrees against the policies of the global Arrogant Powers. That's why they had to react
Khamenei: These recent riots are not something spontaneous and coming from within. The onslaught of propaganda, influencing people's thinking, provoking excitement, actions such as teaching how to make Molotov cocktails, etc. are clear examples of what the enemy is doing
Khamenei: The issue of the enemies' interference in the recent street riots in Iran is recognized by everyone. Even impartial non-Iranian experts have explicitly stated this
