Khamenei: Regarding current, ongoing events in the US and the movement against racial discrimination, our firm stance is support of the people and condemnation of the brutal behavior of the racist US government. BlackLivesMatter PortlandProtests
Khamenei: We advise and warn of bitter consequences the Muslim politicians who seek refuge with the enemy & those who accept the existence of the usurping, oppressive Zionist government and either openly or secretly stretch out hands of friendship to them. HajjMessage
Khamenei: We consider all Muslim nations to be our Brothers. We behave with decency with the non-Muslims who have not joined the front of aggression. Our perpetual concern is supporting the oppressed Palestine & Yemen & the oppressed Muslims throughout the world. HajjMessage

Khamenei: US's treatment of weaker nations is an enlarged version of the US police's behavior, when a policeman kneeled on a defenseless black man's throat until he died. Other western govts, as much as their power allows, are examples of the same catastrophic situation. GeorgeFloyd
Khamenei: A look at US streets, US politicians' treatment of the people, pervasive racial discrimination and the baseness and idiocy of its leaders show the depth of the moral crisis in Western civilization & the futility of its political & economic philosophy. BlackLivesMatter
Khamenei: Today, the IslamicAwakening, meaning the attention of the Muslim intellectuals and youth to their spiritual possessions, is an undeniable fact. Today, the western plutocratic democracy and discriminative capitalism have proved to be inefficient and corruptive
Khamenei: Today more than ever, the interest of the Islamic Nation lies in unity, the type of unity that creates power against enemies and shouts out loudly at the embodied Satan, the encroaching US, and its chained dog, the Zionist government, and stands up against aggression
Khamenei: Hajj is exercising power against the Arrogant Powers that are the centers of corruption, oppression, & pillage. Hajj shows nations' capabilities. If Hajj organizers submit to & seek God's pleasure rather than the US's, Hajj can solve the Muslim World's big problems. HajjMessage

Khamenei: This year's Hajj is seeing the believers' sorrow & grief. Hearts feel lonely due to the Ka'ba's isolation, but by divine power this deprivation won't last long. The lesson to learn, appreciating the great blessing of Hajj, should be kept to save us from ignorance. HajjMessage
