Muslims will win against imperialists, Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei says
During his address at the Friday Prayer, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei accused imperialist forces of conspiring against Muslim countries, implementing a “divide-and-rule” strategy to weaken the region.
Khamenei stated that the enemies of the Iranian people are also the enemies of Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Palestine. He defended Hamas’ “Aqsa Flood” operation, launched on October 7, asserting that Palestinians have the right to resist and underscoring the importance of Lebanese support for the Palestinian cause.
Iran’s Supreme Leader warned that Iran would respond appropriately to the “Zionist regime,” claiming that Iran’s actions against Israel are legitimate. He also emphasized that Israel is incapable of destroying Hezbollah and Hamas.
Furthermore, Khamenei accused Israel of believing it can achieve its goals by “slaughtering civilians” and praised Hezbollah for defending Lebanon’s honor. He called on all Muslims to support Lebanon, asserting that Hezbollah’s fight is a religious duty.
Khamenei labeled Israel a “bully,” accusing the U.S. and Western nations of empowering the Israeli state to exploit the region.
