00:02:25The message of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution
00:02:28on the occasion of God's Day, the 13th of Aban, the most important points that were mentioned
00:02:32in this message attracted the attention of decision-makers
00:02:35and the domestic arena, and even international
00:02:39media and foreign media, and in a way,
00:02:43it was a conclusive statement on many
00:02:45issues and many
00:02:49areas that our country faces today in the region
00:02:52and in the international arena. What are the most important points of this message
00:02:56from the perspective of His Holiness? Let me tell
00:03:00you that this
00:03:02message has many points,
00:03:06both in terms of explanation and
00:03:09examining the roots of America's hostility
00:03:12against the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Iranian nation,
00:03:15and also in terms of the outlook of American
00:03:19policies towards Iran,
00:03:22the requirements of policymaking
00:03:25and the behavioral requirements
00:03:28of officials, what should they be? These are the two main dimensions
00:03:32that I think are noteworthy.
00:03:35However, in the first discussion,
00:03:38look, one of the serious
00:03:41issues in explaining the relations between Iran
00:03:45and America has always been the cause
00:03:48of this tension. Americans always try
00:03:52to say that the cause of tension
00:03:55in relations or hostility is the 13th of Aban or November 4th,
00:03:59which was when the US embassy,
00:04:01which was a nest of spies, was
00:04:05actually captured,
00:04:09and American diplomats were actually
00:04:12captured by revolutionary forces. They always
00:04:15tell the story from here. I remember that in the year
00:04:191388 (2009), the Obama administration issued
00:04:22a statement for the 13th of Aban and introduced
00:04:26it as the beginning of differences between Iran and America. That same year.
00:04:30The Leader's speech made a key
00:04:33point that is still emphasized by our dear Leader
00:04:37in his message, and that
00:04:40is that the cause of tension between Iran
00:04:43and America is not actually the 13th of Aban. The 13th of Aban is a reaction
00:04:47to America's hostile policies against the Iranian
00:04:50nation. And at least we can trace
00:04:54this back to the story of August 19th and the coup that was carried out
00:04:58against Iran's legitimate government.
00:05:00So, in fact, we can raise the year 1332 (1953), yes,
00:05:031332 (1953). So the main point is
00:05:06what is the cause
00:05:09of the disagreement? Americans actually distort
00:05:13the story. Now, if we want to refer to this story
00:05:17and we don't want to go back to the past either,
00:05:20the 13th of Aban was based
00:05:23on documents that the Americans themselves published, not the documents
00:05:27that were discovered in the spy den at the beginning of the revolution, but rather
00:05:31documents that were published during the Trump administration. The first Trump administration in 2018
00:05:35published a series of documents, about a thousand
00:05:38pages, and in relation to the events
00:05:43related to the hostage-taking and the 13th
00:05:45of Aban, it published many documents.
00:05:49What we can understand from this event is
00:05:52that based on the documents that the Americans
00:05:56themselves publish, the action taken
00:06:00by the Iranian nation, revolutionary students,
00:06:03and the leadership of the system
00:06:06was a completely intelligent move, meaning an intelligent
00:06:10move, because
00:06:13in previous periods, events occurred that, due
00:06:17to a lack of intelligence and political
00:06:20acumen, the national movement
00:06:23of the Iranian people was,
00:06:26in fact, lost. Two clear examples
00:06:29are the Constitutional Movement and the nationalization
00:06:33of the oil industry. Both
00:06:35were lost due to the incompetence of the then-leaders,
00:06:39whether it was the Qajar government or,
00:06:43in fact, the Pahlavi government
00:06:46and foreign influence. This popular
00:06:49movement, which had happened with the sacrifices of the Iranian
00:06:53nation, was diverted from its main path.
00:06:56However, the point is that the leaders of Iran
00:07:00at that time, meaning the ruling team
00:07:04of the revolutionary system, with the leadership at its core, had these historical
00:07:07events in mind. They knew what the foreigner
00:07:10had done with the popular movement of the Iranian nation.
00:07:14Therefore, something that is usually not mentioned
00:07:18is that two weeks before the 13th of Aban 1958
00:07:21when this happened, meaning on October 22nd, 1958,
00:07:25the Shah entered America. That is, when
00:07:29the Shah fled Iran, he didn't go directly to America. He was in various
00:07:32countries, moving around. Now, there's a long story
00:07:35about that. On October 22nd, he entered
00:07:39America. After the Shah entered America,
00:07:43the movement of the people and students who were aware,
00:07:47and politicians who were aware, realized that
00:07:49there was a possibility of a coup similar to the coup of August 19th.
00:07:53They also had historical experience. They didn't want to allow
00:07:57America to stage another coup after all these years of revolution
00:08:01and blood and sacrifices, due to mismanagement.
00:08:04So the expectation that the people had at that time,
00:08:08and it's in the US documents, even in the negotiations
00:08:12that took place between Iran and America and are in the documents, at that time, relations between Iran
00:08:15and America were not severed. The demand that was made,
00:08:19even in the meeting with Martyr Beheshti, they said, "We want nothing
00:08:22but the return of the Shah. You must return
00:08:26the Shah. Why did he enter America? You probably have a plan
00:08:30to orchestrate another coup, and we will not
00:08:33allow this movement to reach its
00:08:36conclusion like previous movements." So the important point here is intelligence.
00:08:40Look, this is very important. We must pay attention to it. A
00:08:43timely, intelligent, and appropriate
00:08:47move to prevent the people's revolution from being lost. Otherwise,
00:08:51the equation would have been disrupted. The second point that
00:08:54I think exists
00:08:57is that regarding the 13th
00:08:59of Aban, there's an important issue that
00:09:03is less often mentioned, and that is that
00:09:06the domestic currents
00:09:08of the revolution
00:09:10at that time, the entirety
00:09:12of the revolution, the domestic currents of the country
00:09:16showed their true colors. They showed whether they were really
00:09:19supporters of the Islamic Revolution, followers of the Leader, followers
00:09:23of the Imam, or whether they were, in fact, certain
00:09:27political currents seeking benefits. Well,
00:09:31this is very important, and the 13th of Aban is a turning
00:09:35point in this regard, because
00:09:38it distinguished the true from the false.
00:09:41Why? Based on US documents, and because
00:09:44it's important, and this is probably being said for the first time,
00:09:47page 52 of this collection
00:09:51of documents, 52 and 53, there it talks
00:09:54about currents from within
00:09:58the interim government at that time,
00:10:01at the highest level of government and ministers,
00:10:05who had gone to the American side
00:10:08and requested for cooperation
00:10:13because they anticipated that if
00:10:15they were to come under pressure from revolutionary forces
00:10:19or if a change occurred within the revolution, they wanted to align
00:10:23themselves with those. That is, the analysis they presented
00:10:26was that our most important supporter could be America, and that's
00:10:30why, based on the text of the document,
00:10:33they had requested intelligence cooperation with them.
00:10:37The intelligence and assessment that happened there,
00:10:41incidentally, is also Graysick, the one who reported this document
00:10:45to, in fact, the Supreme Council, as in, the US National Security Council,
00:10:48says, "They are requesting security cooperation and want
00:10:51the CIA to support them against
00:10:55the revolution." Well, what happened was that with
00:10:58this action of the 13th of Aban, these
00:11:02currents were practically sidelined. That is, the revolution and those
00:11:05who had joined the revolutionary movement, but were practically America's
00:11:09agents, we can even say, and had themselves gone
00:11:13to America to request intelligence cooperation,
00:11:16they were purged, and the purging of that current
00:11:20played an important role in enabling the revolution to follow its correct path.
00:11:23The most important points of everything you mentioned as an introduction
00:11:27will be another part of my questions to Your Excellency. Dr. Azizi
00:11:31is with us from another studio. Dr.
00:11:34In the message of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution,
00:11:38a section refers to
00:11:41the Leader saying that if there are still those who have
00:11:44a little hope for a change in behavior or partisan
00:11:48and factional shifts in the system of domination,
00:11:51or who imagine that by giving concessions to America, they can
00:11:55dissuade it from enmity with the Iranian nation,
00:11:58they are gravely mistaken. Given
00:12:01the results of the US elections and the very
00:12:04nature of the enmity, malice, and
00:12:08interventionist policies of the system of domination
00:12:11in various countries, including the Islamic Republic of Iran, please
00:12:14tell us what message this section of the message of the Supreme
00:12:18Leader of the Islamic Revolution
00:12:19holds.
00:12:26Well, once again, I must thank all my good
00:12:30and dear people, especially the heroes of
00:12:33the 13th of Aban 1405, who, as always,
00:12:36our great, dear, insightful,
00:12:39current-aware, and enemy-aware people entered
00:12:43the scene and gave a decisive and crushing
00:12:46response to the empty words of the Americans
00:12:50and the leaders of the American regime.
00:12:53Look,
00:12:55my dear brother, Mr. Jamshidi,
00:12:58made some points. The history
00:13:02of the 13th of Aban, the cause of these
00:13:05events, the root of the Americans' enmity
00:13:08with the great nation, and then
00:13:11the transformation of even some currents that perhaps
00:13:14played a role on this day, these are, in my opinion,
00:13:18very important issues, and they themselves can
00:13:22serve as a basis for us to analyze
00:13:25this path of the 13th of Aban from the past
00:13:29to the present and beyond, and to define our
00:13:33mission, duties, and responsibilities
00:13:36in the upcoming arenas. However,
00:13:39since I want to answer your
00:13:42question, I believe that
00:13:45besides the fact that the dear, wise,
00:13:49and powerful Leader of Islamic Iran,
00:13:52his message on the 13th
00:13:57was a guiding light, just like the messages
00:13:59he has given throughout this period since the beginning
00:14:02of the administration of Islamic Iran in various fields,
00:14:06in the 40-day war, in the Ramadan battle,
00:14:10in various developments, this message
00:14:12can also be a beginning for
00:14:15the continuation of this path of anti-arrogance for the great
00:14:19nation of Islamic Iran. However,
00:14:22specifically, well,
00:14:25the wise and visionary Leader of the Revolution
00:14:28greatly emphasized the role that our youth
00:14:31played in field developments
00:14:34and in confronting arrogance. He always invited
00:14:38them to participate, invited them to, in fact,
00:14:41a comprehensive strategic
00:14:44and grand vision for the future of the Islamic
00:14:48Revolution and the role played
00:14:51by youth and adolescents who have been the creators
00:14:56of this on the 13th of Aban until today. The second part
00:14:59that I think was very important and perhaps
00:15:03your question is more related to this issue
00:15:06is regardless of the history
00:15:09of America's enmity, malice, and hostility,
00:15:12and why Americans have engaged in these criminal
00:15:16behaviors over the years, why they have always
00:15:20carried out these hostile actions against the great and brave
00:15:23nation of Islamic Iran. It has not
00:15:26From the 13th of Aban 1958 been insignificant.
00:15:31until today, in every scene, in every environment,
00:15:35in every action, whether political,
00:15:37military, economic, cultural, social,
00:15:41or regional political systems,
00:15:44Americans have intervened with various behaviors.
00:15:48This interventionist behavior of the Americans,
00:15:51this behavior based on
00:15:54American unilateralism, which has been the enemy of many
00:15:58nations, and not just the great nation
00:16:01of Iran during these years, but also the oppressed
00:16:05people of Palestine, Yemen, many
00:16:08countries. This shows the peak of that hostility
00:16:12and malice of the Americans
00:16:16towards pure Islam, towards that
00:16:19authentic current of Islam.
00:16:23However, in this section, as I said, regardless of the history
00:16:26of American hostility, which stems from that
00:16:29spirit of arrogance, the dear Leader
00:16:33of the Islamic Revolution emphasized a very important
00:16:36point: not to rely
00:16:39on the false promises of the Americans
00:16:43and to avoid miscalculations.
00:16:45This seems
00:16:48to be an important issue that
00:16:52is decisive, but its audience
00:16:55is undoubtedly all segments
00:16:59of the people, especially officials and all
00:17:01those who today have the responsibility of governing society
00:17:05in various fields. We should not.
00:17:10We should not think that Americans have been or will be
00:17:13sympathetic to the Iranian nation. We should not have this
00:17:17imagination. Americans have no other
00:17:21thought than hostility, enmity,
00:17:24hatred, and harming
00:17:27the Iranian nation. At no
00:17:30time have Americans throughout these years
00:17:33desired the growth, progress, development,
00:17:37and resolution of our problems.
00:17:40Yes, we have said this many times. Certainly,
00:17:44our struggle with the Americans
00:17:47is both essential and existential. Essential because we stand on our true
00:17:51principles. Essential because it is based on the rightful
00:17:54principles of Islam, the Islamic Revolution, territorial
00:17:57integrity, and the prevailing values.
00:18:00It is existential because Americans have truly taken every action they could
00:18:04against our nation throughout these years.
00:18:07Avoiding wrong and mistaken
00:18:11calculations, and not relying on
00:18:15false and empty
00:18:18promises by, in any case,
00:18:21officials, is among the important issues
00:18:24and the necessity of continuing resistance,
00:18:28field presence, understanding the currents,
00:18:32and recognizing the enemy. These were also important
00:18:35points that were clearly manifested
00:18:39in this message. This is our path, this is the right path.
00:18:42First, obedience. First,
00:18:45obedience to the commands of the wise and powerful Leader of Islamic Iran.
00:18:49Second, with unity and
00:18:51insight. Third, understanding
00:18:55the currents for all people, political
00:18:58currents, and alongside all of this,
00:19:02we must accept that today, with these
00:19:06very principles that were manifested
00:19:09and evolving in this very message,
00:19:13we must continue this path. This message,
00:19:16although, well, as I said, in continuation of the messages
00:19:19and guidance that the wise Leader
00:19:22of the Islamic Revolution has given throughout this period for our
00:19:26nation, for the resistance front, for free
00:19:30nations, for all those who today are fighting
00:19:33in a single front against arrogance.
00:19:38This message clarified very important
00:19:41and instructive points, duties, and responsibilities.
00:19:44I am sure our great nation, which
00:19:48today is the standard-bearer of this movement, will continue
00:19:51to learn from its glorious
00:19:55past, using these
00:19:57commands and guidance of the Supreme Leader
00:20:00of the Revolution, of course, with unity, coordination, and cohesion, with
00:20:04the field presence of our dear people in the squares.
00:20:08I have said this many times before.
00:20:12Perhaps it is not right to repeat it. Americans
00:20:15themselves admitted, it's true.
00:20:18They themselves said that this presence of people
00:20:22in the field was the cause of our defeat. Well,
00:20:25a part of this presence is precisely this presence on historical
00:20:28occasions, like this very 13th of Aban, which truly,
00:20:32once again, our great nation came and
00:20:35created glorious
00:20:39deeds alongside these actions. I hope, God willing, we will implement this message correctly.
00:20:42Our duty is not merely to celebrate the message,
00:20:46it is to execute its commands.
00:20:49We must follow what is required
00:20:52of us as a duty in this sensitive period,
00:20:55and I think, God willing, it will be so.
00:20:59I would like to further discuss
00:21:02America's miscalculations and
00:21:05their wrong assumptions and actions
00:21:09with my dear colleagues, taking advantage of this opportunity
00:21:13to present my remarks. These
00:21:16US elections, these elections,
00:21:21the developments in European countries,
00:21:25the successes of the resistance front, the readiness
00:21:28of our armed forces, these are all important topics that, if
00:21:32God willing, there is time, I think
00:21:35we need to emphasize them anyway.
00:21:38Dr. Azizi, you emphasized several very important points,
00:21:42which I will certainly ask you about in the upcoming
00:21:46intervals. But Dr. Jamshidi,
00:21:50Dr. Azizi also mentioned the US elections, and the US elections and
00:21:53the results that were obtained have almost been analyzed
00:21:57by analysts, to the surprise of the Americans themselves and the US government.
00:22:01And we will talk about it.
00:22:04And a much more important point is
00:22:07the first part of the message of the Supreme
00:22:11Leader of the Islamic Revolution on the occasion of God's Day, the 13th of Aban, where he says
00:22:14that the Iranian nation has clarified
00:22:17its position with criminal America more clearly
00:22:21this year than any other year,
00:22:24and knows that given that there are US elections
00:22:28now, will these elections, the results that have been
00:22:31obtained, will Americans change their approach, change their policies
00:22:35regarding what we have always emphasized, namely enmities,
00:22:39hostilities, domineering and interventionist
00:22:42policies towards countries?
00:22:45Look, the simple answer
00:22:48to this question is no.
00:22:52But if we want to look at the issue a bit more deeply,
00:22:56when you talk about America, you must
00:23:00understand the nature of its policy. And the nature
00:23:03of its policy, according to scholars,
00:23:06strategists, American policy designers,
00:23:10and foreign governments, all agree that over
00:23:14the past 250 years, not over the past
00:23:17few years, America's policy
00:23:20has been completely imperialistic, hegemonic, and domineering.
00:23:23Everyone says, when did America enter the international
00:23:27arena? After the Spanish-American War, from
00:23:301890 to 1900 onwards, or after World
00:23:33War II, they refer to it. Before that, everyone says
00:23:37America was isolationist and had the Monroe Doctrine. Now, I'm saying these things
00:23:40so you know that these are serious academic
00:23:44discussions, and books have been written
00:23:46on these topics. The era when America was introduced
00:23:50as an era of isolationism
00:23:53was an era when it said, "Half the world is mine." That is, it considered
00:23:57the Western Hemisphere its own and said that no European power,
00:24:01colonial government, had the right to enter the Western Hemisphere,
00:24:04not because it wanted to free the nations of Latin America,
00:24:08but because it wanted to colonize it itself.
00:24:11This is very important, and it wanted to expand
00:24:14its territory. This continent, it took the continent at that time.
00:24:18That is, at first, well, it was limited to the eastern
00:24:22coasts, and then it moved to the western coasts. Therefore, America was a colonial
00:24:25power from the very beginning, an imperialistic government,
00:24:29and then hegemonic motives and
00:24:33for world domination ruled it. American
00:24:37strategies have identified three main regions for their
00:24:41global dominance: one is Western Europe,
00:24:44the second is East Asia, and the third is the Persian Gulf.
00:24:48That is, the strategic value of the region we are in is so great
00:24:52that control over it shapes the global power equation
00:24:55for America. So the feeling that
00:24:58America will change its methods, change its policies
00:25:01with one election, means we haven't fundamentally
00:25:05understood America. But unfortunately, some
00:25:08people internally are and have been of such
00:25:12an opinion. They thought that if we reached an agreement with America, for example,
00:25:16it would lead to a change in its behavior. If we give concessions to America,
00:25:19it will lead to a change in its behavior, or if
00:25:22we say, for example, come and invest in Iran, America seeks to plunder
00:25:26countries. It's not looking to put money into other countries; it wants to collect money
00:25:30from all over the world and take it to America. Those who say
00:25:34these things or those who say these things fundamentally haven't understood
00:25:38America's policy or Trump's policy. Now, why does His Holiness mention
00:25:41that this year it has become clearer?
00:25:45Because people have seen how America behaves, especially during the Trump
00:25:49administration, which clearly shows its
00:25:52outlook that it seeks domination everywhere, not just domination
00:25:56but ownership. America is not merely seeking domination
00:26:00over the Persian Gulf and the oil of this region.
00:26:02It wants to take ownership of it, meaning it says it's mine, it's America's.
00:26:06And others say, well, let them benefit from its profits.
00:26:10This is a serious view that exists
00:26:13in America. But why is it clearer this
00:26:16year? This is a point, in my opinion,
00:26:20meaning if we look closely behind the scenes, it's because
00:26:23America hides its intentions and goals.
00:26:27That is, its language is a language of democracy,
00:26:31humanitarianism, and freedom. But under this very
00:26:34name, it has committed all kinds of crimes. You
00:26:38should pay less attention to this in the recent period. I intentionally want to say
00:26:41these things to the Iranian people. For example, they say that in
00:26:45the last two or three decades or after the revolution, the best president
00:26:48for Iran was Obama, and he came and signed the JCPOA
00:26:51and so on. But this very Obama is the one
00:26:55who, for the first time in his official nuclear
00:26:58document, as the NPR Posture Review,
00:27:02threatened Iran with nuclear weapons. That is, in his military
00:27:06doctrine, he threatened Iran with nuclear weapons,
00:27:10which I remember His Holiness Rahmetullah Alayh
00:27:13referred to at that time and said that this is an unforgivable
00:27:17sin that the American government committed, meaning a nuclear
00:27:20threat against a country that was a member of the NPT. At that time,
00:27:24there were these stories about the JCPOA and so on, but even then, he did
00:27:28this. And our dear Leader,
00:27:32the great martyr,
00:27:35why did they say it? So that the nation would not forget what they did.
00:27:39Well, these were the people who fundamentally
00:27:41designed the JCPOA not
00:27:45to create a real opening for our people.
00:27:48They had a plan. They wanted to move step by step. They themselves
00:27:52later brought this up, and they wanted pro-American
00:27:56currents within the Iranian government and
00:27:59within Iran to be strengthened. This is what later became
00:28:03they explicitly stated, and it's still the case, even Trump's government says the same thing. You see,
00:28:07since the beginning of the revolution, since November 4th, based on those documents,
00:28:10if you look, up to Obama's government, and then even
00:28:13Trump's government, there has always been a line of thought
00:28:17which is that they are seeking to
00:28:20strengthen the currents that they themselves introduce as moderates,
00:28:23the political currents within
00:28:27the establishment that lean towards
00:28:30America. That's why he even gives concessions to the agreement, saying, "Come and do this."
00:28:33Why? Because he says, "Well, I'll give them this trump card,
00:28:37it will be strengthened inside Iran, and ultimately this will secure
00:28:41my interests two steps ahead." This is what they are officially
00:28:44saying. In my previous session, they were trying
00:28:48to hide their own goals and even justify
00:28:51war with their rhetoric, in the name of the people, they attack
00:28:55these very people. This year they showed themselves more, and
00:28:59everyone must really be careful because of this. A few
00:29:03sentences later, he says, "The slightest inclination towards
00:29:06surrender and interaction with America, which ultimately leads to surrender,
00:29:10no one should show it." Why? Because
00:29:13the first result of that will be that the American
00:29:17enemy will be hopeful of that current,
00:29:21and little by little, they will eliminate them, meaning they will unfortunately separate
00:29:25them from the revolutionary current. This is their hope, and God willing,
00:29:28this will never happen, with the vigilance of the leadership, the vigilance of political
00:29:31currents, officials and the people. Well, they are seeking this.
00:29:35So when we really hear his speech, we must truly see its dimensions
00:29:39and understand America's policy. America's policy towards
00:29:42Iran will definitely not change, but its calculation regarding
00:29:46Iran has been severely affected. Americans didn't think this would happen.
00:29:50They thought everyone already knew. They thought it would be over in a few
00:29:53days. Even now, they think this. Mnuchin,
00:29:57their Treasury Secretary, went and promised Trump, saying,
00:30:01"Sir, Iran's work will be done in a few weeks," for example, because of the blockade, because of economic
00:30:04pressures, it will end. He's waiting to see that.
