00:00:00and we have taught the experiences we had. 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.
00:00:26The public relations of the IRGC Navy reported the
00:00:30fire of a second oil tanker in the past 24 hours after hitting a
00:00:33naval mine. The public relations of the IRGC Navy announced
00:00:37that a shuttle-type oil tanker
00:00:41with 750,000 barrels of crude oil, on the afternoon of
00:00:44October 11, disregarding the warnings and alerts of
00:00:48the IRGC Navy, was trying to pass through an unauthorized
00:00:52route when it hit a naval mine and suffered an
00:00:55explosion and a severe fire. The
00:01:01Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council wrote on his personal page in virtual
00:01:05space: Trump, who launched one of the most foolish
00:01:08wars in human history with the illusion of conquering Iran,
00:01:12being deceived by Netanyahu, has now turned to
00:01:15smuggling after the failure of the American navy to open the Strait of Hormuz.
00:01:19Major General Mohsen Rezaei added that the US
00:01:22Army had never suffered such a disaster before.
00:01:25The
00:01:27Minister
00:01:30of Foreign Affairs emphasized the legal follow-up of the crime of attacking Minab
00:01:34school: Mr. Seyyed Abbas Araqchi, who received
00:01:37the letter of Fatemeh Zahra Sheikh Abadi, a student survivor of
00:01:40Shajareh Tayyeba Minab school,
00:01:44on the sidelines of the Eco-site International Conference "Silent
00:01:48Crime," considered the responsibility of the Ministry
00:01:51of Foreign Affairs to be beyond sympathy for the martyred
00:01:55students of this school. The Minister
00:01:58of Foreign Affairs announced that our real responsibility is to record
00:02:02the truth, pursue the legal and international
00:02:05aspects of this crime, and hold the perpetrators and instigators of
00:02:09that crime accountable. Mr. Araqchi also emphasized: "I consider
00:02:12it my duty to convey the voice of Fatemeh Zahra and the narrative of Minab's children
00:02:16to international forums and not allow the
00:02:20passage of time to marginalize the truth of this tragedy
00:02:23and the necessity of accountability for it."
00:02:27Fatemeh Zahra Sheikh Abadi, in her letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, had requested to
00:02:31keep the names of her martyred friends alive and had also
00:02:35asked the United Nations why it was not taking action
00:02:38against this tragedy and in support of children's rights.
00:02:41In
00:02:45the first Eco-site conference, "Silent War Crime," a legal
00:02:49report on environmental crimes by the United States
00:02:52and the Zionist regime in the region was unveiled.
00:02:56The Environmental Protection Organization compiled this report with the aim of
00:03:00pursuing it in legal and international forums.
00:03:01Convey
00:03:05the voice of the oppression of our children to the
00:03:08world. The mother of two martyred students of
00:03:11Minab speaks of a crime that history will not forget.
00:03:15After three days, I only found a wrist from him.
00:03:19In the first international conference on "Silent War
00:03:22Crime," regarding the imposed wars of last
00:03:26year against our country, the head of the Environmental
00:03:29Protection Organization, referring to the attacks on Tehran's
00:03:32fuel depots and Asaluyeh facilities, said that during the
00:03:3540-day imposed war, about 1.5 million tons of carbon
00:03:39dioxide were released. In a very short period of
00:03:43a few days, about 94 tons of
00:03:46particulate matter, 4700
00:03:48tons of volatile organic compounds, and
00:03:52more than 13,000 tons of sulfur oxides
00:03:56were released. Regarding environmental crime, the Foreign
00:03:59Minister also emphasized the necessity of holding accountable the
00:04:02perpetrators of environmental destruction and considered strengthening
00:04:06legal frameworks, documenting damages, and restoring
00:04:09damaged ecosystems as three axes of international
00:04:13cooperation. The Islamic Republic of Iran supports legal
00:04:16and expert discussions on ways to strengthen international
00:04:20environmental protection, including discussions on
00:04:23recognizing ecocide as an independent international
00:04:26crime. Why doesn't the agency condemn these
00:04:30attacks? The head of the Atomic Energy Organization,
00:04:33referring to the consequences of attacks on nuclear
00:04:37and industrial facilities for human health and the environment,
00:04:40announced the continuation of the nuclear power development program.
00:04:44We will powerfully continue the 20,000-megawatt plan, God
00:04:47willing. Even during the war, our construction project
00:04:51was not halted and will not be
00:04:53halted. In this conference, 133
00:04:57legal reports on environmental damages
00:05:00and crimes by the United States and the Zionist
00:05:04regime in the region were also unveiled. Environmental pollutants,
00:05:08damages, and destructions caused to biodiversity, natural habitats, and
00:05:11wetland ecosystems. All of these have fortunately been
00:05:15documented. This 600-page report is scheduled to be presented
00:05:19at the 31st Climate Change Convention meeting, which will
00:05:22be held in Turkey in November. Saeed
00:05:26Hajizadeh, IRIB News Agency.
00:05:28The
00:05:31head of the Radio Regulatory Organization said: We need a
00:05:35generation change in the field of communication infrastructure.
00:05:38Mr. Fattahi added in a special news interview: "The deterioration of
00:05:42copper cables and low speed are among the reasons that make
00:05:46this change necessary." Because
00:05:50the old telecommunication transmission systems
00:05:53based on copper infrastructure
00:05:56consume a lot of
00:05:59energy, and we can reduce
00:06:03energy consumption by up to 80% using
00:06:07new fiber optic communication systems and infrastructure.
00:06:10In terms of space, human
00:06:12resources, and other important issues, the most
00:06:16important issue is increasing speed and quality.
00:06:20This means that
00:06:22in some cases, we will have up to 100 times
00:06:26faster speed and better quality
00:06:29when using fiber optic infrastructure and communications.
00:06:33This has happened all over the world, and
00:06:35we are compelled to make
00:06:39this change for the development of our
00:06:42fixed communication network.
00:06:43Nightly
00:06:48gatherings. 224 nights of the
00:06:51powerful and enthusiastic presence of people in the streets
00:06:54and squares have passed. An unprecedented presence that has
00:06:58now lasted more than 7 months. Oh
00:07:01people, the storm is with
00:07:04us. From square to square and street
00:07:08to street, these nights still witness the presence
00:07:11of people in nightly gatherings.
00:08:13Because
00:08:15you are good people.
00:08:23And here is Azadi Square,
00:08:26repeating the slogan: "Our hands are
00:08:29with us." It has been exactly
00:08:32more than seven months that these people are
00:08:36every night, with all their might, firmly
00:08:39and steadfastly on the scene to defend the country.
00:09:13The people had these crushing responses to the statements
00:09:16of American officials: "They have no
00:09:19history or civilization, and they can't see our
00:09:23history and civilization. They should wait for their
00:09:26appropriate defeat. The story of that Roman general who
00:09:29kneels before the Iranian general. They might
00:09:33be able to distort history now, but they
00:09:36can't read these things and learn not to
00:09:40overstep their bounds. They should understand who they are following.
00:09:44That man has been answered. Even the pitchers in
00:09:47Iran have served much longer than America.
00:09:51No one can speak ill of Iran. They don't
00:09:55know Iranians; they should know and understand that an
00:09:58Iranian never gives up. There is something in Iran,
00:10:02a jewel that has not been touched for years,
00:10:05and will not be touched, by the name of
00:10:09Iran." Stay
00:10:25with us.
00:10:45In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Hello. This
00:10:49is a new and innovative work in writing the life
00:10:53of a martyr and the martyr's wife. Attractive and
00:10:56effective. In its beautiful and sweet
00:11:00combination, the sweet mind and language of the
00:11:03narrator have certainly been effective, but
00:11:06undoubtedly the art of the writer and his creativity
00:11:09and innovation have also played an important role.
00:11:13Greetings to the martyr Qahari and his patient, wise,
00:11:16and brave wife, and blessings upon the sweet-spoken
00:11:20and artistic writer of the book. This is part of
00:11:24the commendation of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic
00:11:27Revolution on this book that is in my hand, "Traveler of
00:11:30Fire and Snow," which was brought to fruition by
00:11:34a lady who is now sitting in front
00:11:37of me and is the guest of Mr. Farhangdoost. Madam,
00:11:41welcome. Tell us about this book and the feeling
00:11:44you had when you heard the commendation from the Supreme
00:11:47Leader of the Islamic Revolution. Hello to you and
00:11:51your dear viewers. Well,
00:11:55it was 2011 when the research for this work
00:11:58began, and I didn't think it would
00:12:02have so much to say and so many stories. Mrs.
00:12:05Rasouli, and truly, the love
00:12:08and affection that women have, especially
00:12:12Iranian women, and the love they have for their
00:12:15families, lives, and husbands, really showed
00:12:19itself in this book, it manifested itself.
00:12:22This lady's companionship with her husband in
00:12:25difficult and harsh war conditions in
00:12:29war zones, meaning, as far
00:12:32as I remember, until the end of the war, this
00:12:36lady had not retreated to safe cities; they
00:12:39were living with her husband in those war zones.
00:12:43And that I would sit and listen to her
00:12:47and we would review her memories together.
00:12:50She had forgotten some things, and we used
00:12:54photos and documents to help her remember.
00:12:57We would put a gap between interviews. In some
00:13:00places, we proceeded with the recorder off until
00:13:03finally these interviews were finished. And thank
00:13:06God that the author of the book, whom I
00:13:10would like to thank, Mr. Farhad
00:13:13Khazri, truly did justice to the topic.
00:13:17I always thought that this book would receive
00:13:20a commendation because it was really well-written.
00:13:23Commendation
00:13:48of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution,
00:13:51His Eminence Grand Ayatollah Khamenei, may his shadow
00:13:55endure. In the book "Ham Safar
00:13:58Aatash Barf" (Traveling with Fire and
00:14:02Snow), a documentary novel narrating Farahnaz Rasouli's
00:14:06life with her husband, Martyr Saeed
00:14:09Qahharizadeh, written by Mr. Farhad
00:14:12Khazri.
00:14:13In
00:14:17the name of
00:14:17God.
00:14:21This is a new and innovative work in writing
00:14:25the life of a martyr and the martyr's wife.
00:14:28Attractive and effective. In its beautiful and sweet
00:14:32combination, the sweet mind and language of
00:14:36the narrator have certainly been effective, but undoubtedly the art
00:14:39of the writer and his creativity and innovation have
00:14:43also played an important role. Greetings to God upon
00:14:46Martyr Qahari and his patient, wise,
00:14:50and brave wife, and blessings upon
00:14:52the eloquent and artistic
00:14:55writer of the book. Seyyed Ali Khamenei,
00:14:58April 2024.
00:15:00When
00:15:03I heard that the leader had written a commendation for
00:15:07this book and it had been seen, I was very happy,
00:15:11very happy. And I thank God that
00:15:14it was one of the four works
00:15:18whose research was done by me, and the leader had
00:15:21seen the book. We also
00:15:25had a personal meeting with the leader in
00:15:282019, where I introduced several other books
00:15:32to him, and I saw that he had read
00:15:35the books. One book
00:15:37was about one of the freed prisoners.
00:15:41Then I saw that the leader was telling
00:15:44me with details, "This is that book, I saw
00:15:47it," and he had clearly read the book.
00:15:50This happened a couple of times, even at the
00:15:54book fair when the leader came. The books
00:15:57were new, for example, first editions, on the
00:16:01shelf, and we saw that the leader put
00:16:04his hand on them and said, "I saw and read
00:16:09this book." Our martyred leader, despite
00:16:12his governance of the country and his difficult
00:16:16tasks, valued books and culture, which was very
00:16:19encouraging for us, that the books were
00:16:22read and seen by him. And it
00:16:25was a source of joy for me. In that
00:16:28meeting we had with the leader, and the
00:16:32kindness he showed, and the ring he
00:16:35gave as a souvenir, a sentence from Mr.
00:16:38Farhangdoost resonates strongly in your mind
00:16:42about documenting the lives of martyrs and their
00:16:46families. In that meeting we had with His Holiness,
00:16:50I remember that, for example, the
00:16:54leader knew some of the writers and women by
00:16:57name and would mention them and greet them
00:17:00warmly. Well, I, who was meeting
00:17:04the leader up close for the first time,
00:17:08sitting about a meter away, when I was introduced,
00:17:11he gave a very warm greeting and a smile.
00:17:14And he emphasized, I even remember that
00:17:18in that session, the leader also emphasized
00:17:20that
00:17:23books should be based on documents and
00:17:26written. Once, when he visited the publishing house's
00:17:30booth at the exhibition, he saw the
00:17:33books. We had written "fictional biography,"
00:17:36and he asked, "What does 'fictional biography' mean?"
00:17:40We explained that 70% of it is interviews
00:17:43and research that has been done, and
00:17:4710% is atmospheric. And he emphasized
00:17:51that books must be written based
00:17:54on documentation, evidence, and realities. This
00:17:58work must be done. And thank
00:18:01God, so far, we have tried to write
00:18:05books based on research. And
00:18:08I would like to thank
00:18:12the researchers in the field of books,
00:18:15who I believe are overlooked.
00:18:19They do the fundamental work for books.
00:18:23The esteemed writers then transform it into different
00:18:26forms and genres.
00:18:28Its
00:18:35era is over. If we have been
00:18:39in a corner of the internet and social networks,
00:18:42we will definitely give such an answer. Let's
00:18:46think, did the era of books end with
00:18:49the advent of newspapers, radio, television, and cinema, that it should end
00:18:53now? If
00:18:55the era of books were to end, it
00:18:59would have ended sooner. Of course, I have
00:19:02a lot of faith in visual arts, television,
00:19:06cinema, and such things, but books have a
00:19:09special role. Nothing can fill the void of books.
00:19:13Who has the time? This is also one of
00:19:17those familiar phrases. It seems that those
00:19:21who read books have nothing to do but
00:19:24read books. Look at the opinion of a
00:19:28professional reader who, incidentally, is one of
00:19:31the busiest figures in this country. Don't say
00:19:34I'm busy and don't have time. In the
00:19:37early days of the Revolution, for about two years,
00:19:41my connection with books was cut off. With
00:19:44all the work we had, I suddenly
00:19:47reprimanded myself. Now I also study,
00:19:51I also do my work, and I see
00:19:54that they are not contradictory. Now
00:19:58I read a certain amount every day.
00:20:01I have probably taken notes on hundreds
00:20:05of pages. Let's be
00:20:07honest. Many of the arguments we make for
00:20:11not reading books are more to silence the
00:20:15voice of our conscience. No one denies the
00:20:18speed of life, its difficulties, and the problems we all have
00:20:22in life. But even in these conditions,
00:20:25one can take refuge in books. So what
00:20:28better than reviewing a few suggestions from a
00:20:32professional reader? Always have a book with
00:20:36us. For example, when
00:20:41we are sitting on a bus, taxi, subway,
00:20:44or in a doctor's office and are idle,
00:20:47instead of our phones, let's go for a book.
00:20:51It's interesting to know that the Supreme Leader
00:20:53read an eight-volume book on a bus.
00:20:57Let's also be careful about scattered reading and
00:21:01disorganization in our studies. Let's not
00:21:04go to many books without a
00:21:07guide. The solution to this problem, according
00:21:11to the Supreme Leader, is reliable study
00:21:14paths. Sometimes, referring to a book,
00:21:17if it is placed in its proper place,
00:21:21meaning if other books related to this topic
00:21:25have been read before, will have a greater
00:21:29impact. First this book, then this book,
00:21:32then this book. Once they start, they
00:21:36usually find their own way. If
00:21:40you are a young father or mother,
00:21:42don't neglect the pleasure of reading
00:21:46books and instilling this habit in your
00:21:50children, even at a young age.
00:21:53Reading to children is a topic that
00:21:57should become common in Iranian families
00:22:00from childhood. A mother or father
00:22:04should sit down, open a book, and
00:22:08read it aloud. Children should listen.
00:22:12Apparently, this is common among Europeans, but it is
00:22:16not common here. Don't neglect
00:22:19dead time and moments. These daily 10-15
00:22:22minutes that we all have in our lives.
00:22:25We sit down, for example, and
00:22:29watch 20 minutes of radio and
00:22:32television commercials because we are
00:22:35waiting for a movie we want to
00:22:38watch. If we read a book
00:22:42for these 20 minutes, how many
00:22:45pages of a book will we read? But
00:22:50we don't. I myself read an eight-volume
00:22:53book in a few moments or a few
00:22:57minutes. Let's appreciate every second of life.
00:23:00The sum of these seconds will be a
00:23:04large number. In various meetings that the
00:23:08martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution had with
00:23:11writers and people of letters, and
00:23:15various visits to the book fair, what
00:23:18points did he emphasize most? Well,
00:23:22we were involved in the Sacred Defense,
00:23:25and our books are in this field.
00:23:29And as far as I remember, he
00:23:32emphasized reality and the events that
00:23:36occurred. He emphasized that more should
00:23:39be said about Khorramshahr and the
00:23:42resistance of the people. We have
00:23:46books about Leningrad and the resistance
00:23:49of its people, and his emphasis
00:23:52was that work should be done and
00:23:55books should be written about Khorramshahr,
00:23:58Abadan, and other cities where people
00:24:02resisted. And this treasure of resistance
00:24:05and epic created by the people
00:24:08during the 8 years of the
00:24:12Sacred Defense must be narrated and
00:24:16written down so that our future
00:24:19generations know what efforts were made
00:24:22to keep this country standing and
00:24:26for our Iran to remain Iran,
00:24:29and not an iota of the
00:24:32soil of this country be plundered. And if you
00:24:36yourself wanted to document one aspect
00:24:40of the life of the martyred
00:24:44leader of the Islamic Revolution, and
00:24:48research it, which aspect would you
00:24:51examine and what would you name
00:24:53your work? Well,
00:24:56since my work
00:25:01is research and culture and books,
00:25:05I would prefer to examine the
00:25:09biographies and books that he had in
00:25:12his library, had read, and had
00:25:16written notes on. I wanted to see what books
00:25:20he had read and what his
00:25:22opinion was about them. It wasn't
00:25:25just Iranian literature; there was also foreign
00:25:28literature. The leader also read those.
00:25:31I wanted to see those and
00:25:35know about those books. What was
00:25:38your opinion? What would you name
00:25:40your work? Well, the best title
00:25:44that comes to my mind is
00:25:47"The Martyred Leader." Peace, mercy, and
00:25:51blessings of God be upon you.
00:25:55Yes, Mr. Ramazani, the old and
00:25:59famous Ramazani. Not Avicenna.
00:26:03His uncle. Yes, another
00:26:06selection from Shahnameh that they gave
00:26:09a few years ago, "Behin Nameh
00:26:12Bast." That's also very good.
00:26:16Whose handwriting is this?
00:26:19Beautiful. I probably read
00:26:23this book 50 years ago. This
00:26:27is his biography. Yes, I interviewed
00:26:30people who actually
00:26:33worked with him. May God have
00:26:37mercy on him. Stories of
00:26:40Masnavi, Thomas. Good, good
00:26:44work. Yes. This is also
00:26:47one of our famous books.
00:26:51Audio book production. Very
00:26:54good. Whose voice is this? These
00:26:58are the voices of various people
00:27:02like Mr. Omrani and others. How
00:27:06much do you think our literature
00:27:09and poetry owe to his attention
00:27:13to people of books and literature?
00:27:16And you see, the first person
00:27:20in the country reads books, writes notes in the
00:27:24margins, knows the authors, asks about
00:27:28them at the book fair, and
00:27:31is among poets, accompanies them, and writes poetry himself.
00:27:35Well, all of this shows
00:27:37that he values culture and art,
00:27:41and this is encouraging for us
00:27:44when we see that the work
00:27:47that has been done has been
00:27:51seen, and after being seen and commended by
00:27:55the leader, you would see what
00:27:58happened to the book in the
00:28:01market. All of
00:28:06this encouraged people of letters and
00:28:08poets, the attention that was given.
00:28:11And you said that four books
00:28:14that were researched by you received
00:28:17commendations. Can you tell us about
00:28:20them? One of them is this
00:28:24book. Can you also explain about
00:28:28the other books? The book "Golestan
00:28:31Yazdahom" (The Eleventh Rose Garden) was
00:28:35about Martyr Ali Chitsazian, which
00:28:37was published by the Art Bureau.
00:28:41The book "Esm To Mostafast" (Your
00:28:45Name is Mostafa) was published by
00:28:49Revayat-e Fath Publications, and
00:28:52the book "Sarbaz-e Rooz-e Nohom" (Soldier
00:28:55of the Ninth Day) was published
00:28:58by Rahyar Publications. Well, since 1997,
00:29:02when I started this work, because
00:29:05my own field was journalism, I
00:29:09was interested in research, and
00:29:12I felt that the work we
00:29:15were doing regarding the Sacred Defense
00:29:19needed a research foundation.
00:29:22And the people who were in
00:29:25that field, who were in the
00:29:298 years of the Sacred Defense,
00:29:32these memories gradually fade from their
00:29:36minds and they forget. And
00:29:39these need to be recorded. Since
00:29:431997, in addition to my
00:29:47writing work, I spent most of
00:29:51my time on research, and
00:29:54now we also wanted to pass
00:29:58on what we
00:30:21had learned to the next generation so
00:30:25that they would continue this path.
00:30:29Thank you very much. I would
00:30:32like to have the final words
00:30:35of this part from Mr. Farhangdoost
00:30:39with you. I just hope
00:30:43that we have
00:30:45come this far,
