I mean, as much as I could, I told those who consulted me what I knew. I hope that those who come after us will do this work much better than us, and they have shown that they have done so. And as the saying goes, if there is a layer here, it is the memories and events that happened in this country, and the men and women who were patient and stood by their beliefs, and stood firm so that this flag would remain hoisted and the soil of Iran would not fall into the hands of foreigners. This transfer of memories, this transfer of the epic and courage of our men and women, should be passed on to future generations in a better way than us. May God protect you. Thank you very much for your presence. The further we advance, the greater our need for books will become. The idea that with the advent of new and emerging mass media tools, books will become isolated, is a mistake. The most important art of emerging tools is to easily and conveniently transfer the content of books. Nothing can replace books. In my opinion, one of the worst and most damaging forms of laziness is laziness in reading books, and the more one gives in to this laziness, the more it grows. Book reading must be promoted in society. Insults after insults from the US regarding Iran's civilization have become more evident than ever. The question is, has anyone still not realized the 250-year American animosity towards Iran's 7,000-year history and civilization? After the US president repeatedly called the Iranian nation terrorists in the past few months and announced the destruction of Iran's civilization. [00:00:26] The public relations of the IRGC Navy reported the [00:00:30] fire of a second oil tanker in the past 24 hours after hitting a [00:00:33] naval mine. The public relations of the IRGC Navy announced [00:00:37] that a shuttle-type oil tanker [00:00:41] with 750,000 barrels of crude oil, on the afternoon of [00:00:44] October 11, disregarding the warnings and alerts of [00:00:48] the IRGC Navy, was trying to pass through an unauthorized [00:00:52] route when it hit a naval mine and suffered an [00:00:55] explosion and a severe fire. The [00:01:01] Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council wrote on his personal page in virtual [00:01:05] space: Trump, who launched one of the most foolish [00:01:08] wars in human history with the illusion of conquering Iran, [00:01:12] being deceived by Netanyahu, has now turned to [00:01:15] smuggling after the failure of the American navy to open the Strait of Hormuz. [00:01:19] Major General Mohsen Rezaei added that the US [00:01:22] Army had never suffered such a disaster before. [00:01:25] The [00:01:27] Minister [00:01:30] of Foreign Affairs emphasized the legal follow-up of the crime of attacking Minab [00:01:34] school: Mr. Seyyed Abbas Araqchi, who received [00:01:37] the letter of Fatemeh Zahra Sheikh Abadi, a student survivor of [00:01:40] Shajareh Tayyeba Minab school, [00:01:44] on the sidelines of the Eco-site International Conference "Silent [00:01:48] Crime," considered the responsibility of the Ministry [00:01:51] of Foreign Affairs to be beyond sympathy for the martyred [00:01:55] students of this school. The Minister [00:01:58] of Foreign Affairs announced that our real responsibility is to record [00:02:02] the truth, pursue the legal and international [00:02:05] aspects of this crime, and hold the perpetrators and instigators of [00:02:09] that crime accountable. Mr. Araqchi also emphasized: "I consider [00:02:12] it my duty to convey the voice of Fatemeh Zahra and the narrative of Minab's children [00:02:16] to international forums and not allow the [00:02:20] passage of time to marginalize the truth of this tragedy [00:02:23] and the necessity of accountability for it." [00:02:27] Fatemeh Zahra Sheikh Abadi, in her letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, had requested to [00:02:31] keep the names of her martyred friends alive and had also [00:02:35] asked the United Nations why it was not taking action [00:02:38] against this tragedy and in support of children's rights. [00:02:41] In [00:02:45] the first Eco-site conference, "Silent War Crime," a legal [00:02:49] report on environmental crimes by the United States [00:02:52] and the Zionist regime in the region was unveiled. [00:02:56] The Environmental Protection Organization compiled this report with the aim of [00:03:00] pursuing it in legal and international forums. [00:03:01] Convey [00:03:05] the voice of the oppression of our children to the [00:03:08] world. The mother of two martyred students of [00:03:11] Minab speaks of a crime that history will not forget. [00:03:15] After three days, I only found a wrist from him. [00:03:19] In the first international conference on "Silent War [00:03:22] Crime," regarding the imposed wars of last [00:03:26] year against our country, the head of the Environmental [00:03:29] Protection Organization, referring to the attacks on Tehran's [00:03:32] fuel depots and Asaluyeh facilities, said that during the [00:03:35] 40-day imposed war, about 1.5 million tons of carbon [00:03:39] dioxide were released. In a very short period of [00:03:43] a few days, about 94 tons of [00:03:46] particulate matter, 4700 [00:03:48] tons of volatile organic compounds, and [00:03:52] more than 13,000 tons of sulfur oxides [00:03:56] were released. Regarding environmental crime, the Foreign [00:03:59] Minister also emphasized the necessity of holding accountable the [00:04:02] perpetrators of environmental destruction and considered strengthening [00:04:06] legal frameworks, documenting damages, and restoring [00:04:09] damaged ecosystems as three axes of international [00:04:13] cooperation. The Islamic Republic of Iran supports legal [00:04:16] and expert discussions on ways to strengthen international [00:04:20] environmental protection, including discussions on [00:04:23] recognizing ecocide as an independent international [00:04:26] crime. Why doesn't the agency condemn these [00:04:30] attacks? The head of the Atomic Energy Organization, [00:04:33] referring to the consequences of attacks on nuclear [00:04:37] and industrial facilities for human health and the environment, [00:04:40] announced the continuation of the nuclear power development program. [00:04:44] We will powerfully continue the 20,000-megawatt plan, God [00:04:47] willing. Even during the war, our construction project [00:04:51] was not halted and will not be [00:04:53] halted. In this conference, 133 [00:04:57] legal reports on environmental damages [00:05:00] and crimes by the United States and the Zionist [00:05:04] regime in the region were also unveiled. Environmental pollutants, [00:05:08] damages, and destructions caused to biodiversity, natural habitats, and [00:05:11] wetland ecosystems. All of these have fortunately been [00:05:15] documented. This 600-page report is scheduled to be presented [00:05:19] at the 31st Climate Change Convention meeting, which will [00:05:22] be held in Turkey in November. Saeed [00:05:26] Hajizadeh, IRIB News Agency. [00:05:28] The [00:05:31] head of the Radio Regulatory Organization said: We need a [00:05:35] generation change in the field of communication infrastructure. [00:05:38] Mr. Fattahi added in a special news interview: "The deterioration of [00:05:42] copper cables and low speed are among the reasons that make [00:05:46] this change necessary." Because [00:05:50] the old telecommunication transmission systems [00:05:53] based on copper infrastructure [00:05:56] consume a lot of [00:05:59] energy, and we can reduce [00:06:03] energy consumption by up to 80% using [00:06:07] new fiber optic communication systems and infrastructure. [00:06:10] In terms of space, human [00:06:12] resources, and other important issues, the most [00:06:16] important issue is increasing speed and quality. [00:06:20] This means that [00:06:22] in some cases, we will have up to 100 times [00:06:26] faster speed and better quality [00:06:29] when using fiber optic infrastructure and communications. [00:06:33] This has happened all over the world, and [00:06:35] we are compelled to make [00:06:39] this change for the development of our [00:06:42] fixed communication network. [00:06:43] Nightly [00:06:48] gatherings. 224 nights of the [00:06:51] powerful and enthusiastic presence of people in the streets [00:06:54] and squares have passed. An unprecedented presence that has [00:06:58] now lasted more than 7 months. Oh [00:07:01] people, the storm is with [00:07:04] us. From square to square and street [00:07:08] to street, these nights still witness the presence [00:07:11] of people in nightly gatherings. [00:08:13] Because [00:08:15] you are good people. [00:08:23] And here is Azadi Square, [00:08:26] repeating the slogan: "Our hands are [00:08:29] with us." It has been exactly [00:08:32] more than seven months that these people are [00:08:36] every night, with all their might, firmly [00:08:39] and steadfastly on the scene to defend the country. [00:09:13] The people had these crushing responses to the statements [00:09:16] of American officials: "They have no [00:09:19] history or civilization, and they can't see our [00:09:23] history and civilization. They should wait for their [00:09:26] appropriate defeat. The story of that Roman general who [00:09:29] kneels before the Iranian general. They might [00:09:33] be able to distort history now, but they [00:09:36] can't read these things and learn not to [00:09:40] overstep their bounds. They should understand who they are following. [00:09:44] That man has been answered. Even the pitchers in [00:09:47] Iran have served much longer than America. [00:09:51] No one can speak ill of Iran. They don't [00:09:55] know Iranians; they should know and understand that an [00:09:58] Iranian never gives up. There is something in Iran, [00:10:02] a jewel that has not been touched for years, [00:10:05] and will not be touched, by the name of [00:10:09] Iran." Stay [00:10:25] with us. [00:10:45] In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Hello. This [00:10:49] is a new and innovative work in writing the life [00:10:53] of a martyr and the martyr's wife. Attractive and [00:10:56] effective. In its beautiful and sweet [00:11:00] combination, the sweet mind and language of the [00:11:03] narrator have certainly been effective, but [00:11:06] undoubtedly the art of the writer and his creativity [00:11:09] and innovation have also played an important role. [00:11:13] Greetings to the martyr Qahari and his patient, wise, [00:11:16] and brave wife, and blessings upon the sweet-spoken [00:11:20] and artistic writer of the book. This is part of [00:11:24] the commendation of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic [00:11:27] Revolution on this book that is in my hand, "Traveler of [00:11:30] Fire and Snow," which was brought to fruition by [00:11:34] a lady who is now sitting in front [00:11:37] of me and is the guest of Mr. Farhangdoost. Madam, [00:11:41] welcome. Tell us about this book and the feeling [00:11:44] you had when you heard the commendation from the Supreme [00:11:47] Leader of the Islamic Revolution. Hello to you and [00:11:51] your dear viewers. Well, [00:11:55] it was 2011 when the research for this work [00:11:58] began, and I didn't think it would [00:12:02] have so much to say and so many stories. Mrs. [00:12:05] Rasouli, and truly, the love [00:12:08] and affection that women have, especially [00:12:12] Iranian women, and the love they have for their [00:12:15] families, lives, and husbands, really showed [00:12:19] itself in this book, it manifested itself. [00:12:22] This lady's companionship with her husband in [00:12:25] difficult and harsh war conditions in [00:12:29] war zones, meaning, as far [00:12:32] as I remember, until the end of the war, this [00:12:36] lady had not retreated to safe cities; they [00:12:39] were living with her husband in those war zones. [00:12:43] And that I would sit and listen to her [00:12:47] and we would review her memories together. [00:12:50] She had forgotten some things, and we used [00:12:54] photos and documents to help her remember. [00:12:57] We would put a gap between interviews. In some [00:13:00] places, we proceeded with the recorder off until [00:13:03] finally these interviews were finished. And thank [00:13:06] God that the author of the book, whom I [00:13:10] would like to thank, Mr. Farhad [00:13:13] Khazri, truly did justice to the topic. [00:13:17] I always thought that this book would receive [00:13:20] a commendation because it was really well-written. [00:13:23] Commendation [00:13:48] of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, [00:13:51] His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Khamenei, may his shadow [00:13:55] endure. In the book "Ham Safar [00:13:58] Aatash Barf" (Traveling with Fire and [00:14:02] Snow), a documentary novel narrating Farahnaz Rasouli's [00:14:06] life with her husband, Martyr Saeed [00:14:09] Qahharizadeh, written by Mr. Farhad [00:14:12] Khazri. [00:14:13] In [00:14:17] the name of [00:14:17] God. [00:14:21] This is a new and innovative work in writing [00:14:25] the life of a martyr and the martyr's wife. [00:14:28] Attractive and effective. In its beautiful and sweet [00:14:32] combination, the sweet mind and language of [00:14:36] the narrator have certainly been effective, but undoubtedly the art [00:14:39] of the writer and his creativity and innovation have [00:14:43] also played an important role. Greetings to God upon [00:14:46] Martyr Qahari and his patient, wise, [00:14:50] and brave wife, and blessings upon [00:14:52] the eloquent and artistic [00:14:55] writer of the book. Seyyed Ali Khamenei, [00:14:58] April 2024. [00:15:00] When [00:15:03] I heard that the leader had written a commendation for [00:15:07] this book and it had been seen, I was very happy, [00:15:11] very happy. And I thank God that [00:15:14] it was one of the four works [00:15:18] whose research was done by me, and the leader had [00:15:21] seen the book. We also [00:15:25] had a personal meeting with the leader in [00:15:28] 2019, where I introduced several other books [00:15:32] to him, and I saw that he had read [00:15:35] the books. One book [00:15:37] was about one of the freed prisoners. [00:15:41] Then I saw that the leader was telling [00:15:44] me with details, "This is that book, I saw [00:15:47] it," and he had clearly read the book. [00:15:50] This happened a couple of times, even at the [00:15:54] book fair when the leader came. The books [00:15:57] were new, for example, first editions, on the [00:16:01] shelf, and we saw that the leader put [00:16:04] his hand on them and said, "I saw and read [00:16:09] this book." Our martyred leader, despite [00:16:12] his governance of the country and his difficult [00:16:16] tasks, valued books and culture, which was very [00:16:19] encouraging for us, that the books were [00:16:22] read and seen by him. And it [00:16:25] was a source of joy for me. In that [00:16:28] meeting we had with the leader, and the [00:16:32] kindness he showed, and the ring he [00:16:35] gave as a souvenir, a sentence from Mr. [00:16:38] Farhangdoost resonates strongly in your mind [00:16:42] about documenting the lives of martyrs and their [00:16:46] families. In that meeting we had with His Holiness, [00:16:50] I remember that, for example, the [00:16:54] leader knew some of the writers and women by [00:16:57] name and would mention them and greet them [00:17:00] warmly. Well, I, who was meeting [00:17:04] the leader up close for the first time, [00:17:08] sitting about a meter away, when I was introduced, [00:17:11] he gave a very warm greeting and a smile. [00:17:14] And he emphasized, I even remember that [00:17:18] in that session, the leader also emphasized [00:17:20] that [00:17:23] books should be based on documents and [00:17:26] written. Once, when he visited the publishing house's [00:17:30] booth at the exhibition, he saw the [00:17:33] books. We had written "fictional biography," [00:17:36] and he asked, "What does 'fictional biography' mean?" [00:17:40] We explained that 70% of it is interviews [00:17:43] and research that has been done, and [00:17:47] 10% is atmospheric. And he emphasized [00:17:51] that books must be written based [00:17:54] on documentation, evidence, and realities. This [00:17:58] work must be done. And thank [00:18:01] God, so far, we have tried to write [00:18:05] books based on research. And [00:18:08] I would like to thank [00:18:12] the researchers in the field of books, [00:18:15] who I believe are overlooked. [00:18:19] They do the fundamental work for books. [00:18:23] The esteemed writers then transform it into different [00:18:26] forms and genres. [00:18:28] Its [00:18:35] era is over. If we have been [00:18:39] in a corner of the internet and social networks, [00:18:42] we will definitely give such an answer. Let's [00:18:46] think, did the era of books end with [00:18:49] the advent of newspapers, radio, television, and cinema, that it should end [00:18:53] now? If [00:18:55] the era of books were to end, it [00:18:59] would have ended sooner. Of course, I have [00:19:02] a lot of faith in visual arts, television, [00:19:06] cinema, and such things, but books have a [00:19:09] special role. Nothing can fill the void of books. [00:19:13] Who has the time? This is also one of [00:19:17] those familiar phrases. It seems that those [00:19:21] who read books have nothing to do but [00:19:24] read books. Look at the opinion of a [00:19:28] professional reader who, incidentally, is one of [00:19:31] the busiest figures in this country. Don't say [00:19:34] I'm busy and don't have time. In the [00:19:37] early days of the Revolution, for about two years, [00:19:41] my connection with books was cut off. With [00:19:44] all the work we had, I suddenly [00:19:47] reprimanded myself. Now I also study, [00:19:51] I also do my work, and I see [00:19:54] that they are not contradictory. Now [00:19:58] I read a certain amount every day. [00:20:01] I have probably taken notes on hundreds [00:20:05] of pages. Let's be [00:20:07] honest. Many of the arguments we make for [00:20:11] not reading books are more to silence the [00:20:15] voice of our conscience. No one denies the [00:20:18] speed of life, its difficulties, and the problems we all have [00:20:22] in life. But even in these conditions, [00:20:25] one can take refuge in books. So what [00:20:28] better than reviewing a few suggestions from a [00:20:32] professional reader? Always have a book with [00:20:36] us. For example, when [00:20:41] we are sitting on a bus, taxi, subway, [00:20:44] or in a doctor's office and are idle, [00:20:47] instead of our phones, let's go for a book. [00:20:51] It's interesting to know that the Supreme Leader [00:20:53] read an eight-volume book on a bus. [00:20:57] Let's also be careful about scattered reading and [00:21:01] disorganization in our studies. Let's not [00:21:04] go to many books without a [00:21:07] guide. The solution to this problem, according [00:21:11] to the Supreme Leader, is reliable study [00:21:14] paths. Sometimes, referring to a book, [00:21:17] if it is placed in its proper place, [00:21:21] meaning if other books related to this topic [00:21:25] have been read before, will have a greater [00:21:29] impact. First this book, then this book, [00:21:32] then this book. Once they start, they [00:21:36] usually find their own way. If [00:21:40] you are a young father or mother, [00:21:42] don't neglect the pleasure of reading [00:21:46] books and instilling this habit in your [00:21:50] children, even at a young age. [00:21:53] Reading to children is a topic that [00:21:57] should become common in Iranian families [00:22:00] from childhood. A mother or father [00:22:04] should sit down, open a book, and [00:22:08] read it aloud. Children should listen. [00:22:12] Apparently, this is common among Europeans, but it is [00:22:16] not common here. Don't neglect [00:22:19] dead time and moments. These daily 10-15 [00:22:22] minutes that we all have in our lives. [00:22:25] We sit down, for example, and [00:22:29] watch 20 minutes of radio and [00:22:32] television commercials because we are [00:22:35] waiting for a movie we want to [00:22:38] watch. If we read a book [00:22:42] for these 20 minutes, how many [00:22:45] pages of a book will we read? But [00:22:50] we don't. I myself read an eight-volume [00:22:53] book in a few moments or a few [00:22:57] minutes. Let's appreciate every second of life. [00:23:00] The sum of these seconds will be a [00:23:04] large number. In various meetings that the [00:23:08] martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution had with [00:23:11] writers and people of letters, and [00:23:15] various visits to the book fair, what [00:23:18] points did he emphasize most? Well, [00:23:22] we were involved in the Sacred Defense, [00:23:25] and our books are in this field. [00:23:29] And as far as I remember, he [00:23:32] emphasized reality and the events that [00:23:36] occurred. He emphasized that more should [00:23:39] be said about Khorramshahr and the [00:23:42] resistance of the people. We have [00:23:46] books about Leningrad and the resistance [00:23:49] of its people, and his emphasis [00:23:52] was that work should be done and [00:23:55] books should be written about Khorramshahr, [00:23:58] Abadan, and other cities where people [00:24:02] resisted. And this treasure of resistance [00:24:05] and epic created by the people [00:24:08] during the 8 years of the [00:24:12] Sacred Defense must be narrated and [00:24:16] written down so that our future [00:24:19] generations know what efforts were made [00:24:22] to keep this country standing and [00:24:26] for our Iran to remain Iran, [00:24:29] and not an iota of the [00:24:32] soil of this country be plundered. And if you [00:24:36] yourself wanted to document one aspect [00:24:40] of the life of the martyred [00:24:44] leader of the Islamic Revolution, and [00:24:48] research it, which aspect would you [00:24:51] examine and what would you name [00:24:53] your work? Well, [00:24:56] since my work [00:25:01] is research and culture and books, [00:25:05] I would prefer to examine the [00:25:09] biographies and books that he had in [00:25:12] his library, had read, and had [00:25:16] written notes on. I wanted to see what books [00:25:20] he had read and what his [00:25:22] opinion was about them. It wasn't [00:25:25] just Iranian literature; there was also foreign [00:25:28] literature. The leader also read those. [00:25:31] I wanted to see those and [00:25:35] know about those books. What was [00:25:38] your opinion? What would you name [00:25:40] your work? Well, the best title [00:25:44] that comes to my mind is [00:25:47] "The Martyred Leader." Peace, mercy, and [00:25:51] blessings of God be upon you. [00:25:55] Yes, Mr. Ramazani, the old and [00:25:59] famous Ramazani. Not Avicenna. [00:26:03] His uncle. Yes, another [00:26:06] selection from Shahnameh that they gave [00:26:09] a few years ago, "Behin Nameh [00:26:12] Bast." That's also very good. [00:26:16] Whose handwriting is this? [00:26:19] Beautiful. I probably read [00:26:23] this book 50 years ago. This [00:26:27] is his biography. Yes, I interviewed [00:26:30] people who actually [00:26:33] worked with him. May God have [00:26:37] mercy on him. Stories of [00:26:40] Masnavi, Thomas. Good, good [00:26:44] work. Yes. This is also [00:26:47] one of our famous books. [00:26:51] Audio book production. Very [00:26:54] good. Whose voice is this? These [00:26:58] are the voices of various people [00:27:02] like Mr. Omrani and others. How [00:27:06] much do you think our literature [00:27:09] and poetry owe to his attention [00:27:13] to people of books and literature? [00:27:16] And you see, the first person [00:27:20] in the country reads books, writes notes in the [00:27:24] margins, knows the authors, asks about [00:27:28] them at the book fair, and [00:27:31] is among poets, accompanies them, and writes poetry himself. [00:27:35] Well, all of this shows [00:27:37] that he values culture and art, [00:27:41] and this is encouraging for us [00:27:44] when we see that the work [00:27:47] that has been done has been [00:27:51] seen, and after being seen and commended by [00:27:55] the leader, you would see what [00:27:58] happened to the book in the [00:28:01] market. All of [00:28:06] this encouraged people of letters and [00:28:08] poets, the attention that was given. [00:28:11] And you said that four books [00:28:14] that were researched by you received [00:28:17] commendations. Can you tell us about [00:28:20] them? One of them is this [00:28:24] book. Can you also explain about [00:28:28] the other books? The book "Golestan [00:28:31] Yazdahom" (The Eleventh Rose Garden) was [00:28:35] about Martyr Ali Chitsazian, which [00:28:37] was published by the Art Bureau. [00:28:41] The book "Esm To Mostafast" (Your [00:28:45] Name is Mostafa) was published by [00:28:49] Revayat-e Fath Publications, and [00:28:52] the book "Sarbaz-e Rooz-e Nohom" (Soldier [00:28:55] of the Ninth Day) was published [00:28:58] by Rahyar Publications. Well, since 1997, [00:29:02] when I started this work, because [00:29:05] my own field was journalism, I [00:29:09] was interested in research, and [00:29:12] I felt that the work we [00:29:15] were doing regarding the Sacred Defense [00:29:19] needed a research foundation. [00:29:22] And the people who were in [00:29:25] that field, who were in the [00:29:29] 8 years of the Sacred Defense, [00:29:32] these memories gradually fade from their [00:29:36] minds and they forget. And [00:29:39] these need to be recorded. Since [00:29:43] 1997, in addition to my [00:29:47] writing work, I spent most of [00:29:51] my time on research, and [00:29:54] now we also wanted to pass [00:29:58] on what we [00:30:21] had learned to the next generation so [00:30:25] that they would continue this path. [00:30:29] Thank you very much. I would [00:30:32] like to have the final words [00:30:35] of this part from Mr. Farhangdoost [00:30:39] with you. I just hope [00:30:43] that we have [00:30:45] come this far,
