00:00:00and Oman, as the coastal states of the straight, have
00:00:03carried major share of this responsibility. While the
00:00:07global economy has benefited from this route, much of the burden has
00:00:10remained with the region: air and water pollution, the
00:00:14risk of fuel spills, possible collisions,
00:00:18search and rescue operations,
00:00:20wider security and environmental
00:00:23consequences. In this context, Iran's question
00:00:27becomes easier to understand, is it? reasonable for the world to
00:00:31benefit from vital straight without contributing to the cost of
00:00:34keeping it safe, and more importantly, is it fair for countries
00:00:38that depend on the security of this route to impose political
00:00:41pressure, economic sanctions and even war on
00:00:44Iran, while still expecting essential services in this
00:00:48corridor to continue free of charge. from Iran's
00:00:51perspective, the era of providing such services without
00:00:54compensation is over. This does not mean closing maritime
00:00:58roots or using the st. of Hormus as a weapon, it
00:01:02means creating a transparent, legal and predictable mechanism
00:01:05for sharing the costs of the services that keep this route safe
00:01:09and usable, if Suez and Panama collect fees for their
00:01:12artificial waterways and if some natural
00:01:15straights also have financial mechanisms for safety related
00:01:19services, then the straight of Hormus cannot be treated
00:01:22forever as a completely free root. The fact that Hormus is
00:01:26natural or international is not exempted from the costs of man.
00:01:30and protection and its strategic importance is exactly
00:01:33why financing its safety and management must be taken seriously.
00:02:04Mrs. Mr.
00:03:19sickbed, she had a
00:03:39Mehdi's father had been transferred by Bank
00:03:42Keshavarzi to Malayer and Mehdi
00:03:45attended elementary school in a school that years
00:03:48later Saddam would bomb during the eight-year
00:03:52war. That very same school with its
00:03:56brick walls. I fell in love with these little
00:03:59boys sitting in the corner of this school in the photo
00:04:03and it is unclear what he is thinking
00:04:05about
00:04:10during the revolution days Mehdi was a teenager, like
00:04:13any other teenager swept by the fever of the
00:04:17revolution into the streets
00:04:19of
00:04:24Chalous. Mehdi said that in those days he and his friends
00:04:27used every opportunity to get themselves
00:05:00position in the fields
00:05:02of, in fact, basic sciences, especially
00:05:06physics, mathematics, biophysics, and some
00:05:09aerospace fields, they said that Russian universities in
00:05:13these fields, in these areas, are strong universities,
00:05:17they are good universities, and it is better to go there.
00:05:20He went to the Institute of General Physics
00:05:23there, and in fact,
00:05:26he started his work in the field of laser magnetism.
00:05:30My father's personality was such
00:05:34that, since he was a government
00:05:37scholarship recipient, he only felt obliged
00:05:40to study in Russia and not do anything else.
00:06:12they had a dream, but with your father's knowledge, I chose
00:06:16him, in a way, a person who is completely
00:06:18Hezbollahi, with a clean
00:06:22collar, for example, his collar buttons are neat,
00:06:25and his beard, they said, was not like someone who was going to
00:06:29propose, but rather a "bazaar kid,"
00:06:32they said, that he maintained
00:06:36his student status, and his Hezbollahi
00:06:39and regional identity.
00:07:42free opportunity to visit Karbala.
00:07:46Mahdi's mother was also with us on many of these
00:07:49trips.
00:07:53After Haj Abdullah's passing, Mehdi never
00:07:56separated from his mother for moments. My
00:07:59relationship with his mother in those years was more like
00:08:03a mother-daughter relationship. I
00:08:06remember when people saw us together, they would think I was her
00:08:10daughter. Even when we moved to a new
00:08:14house, Mehdi always made sure his mother was
00:08:17close to us. In those final
00:08:20years, she even lived with us. She was the
00:08:24blessing of our
00:08:25life.
00:08:28In the last days, on her
00:08:32request for Mehdi.
00:08:35She told him, "I am content with leaving,
00:08:38you should also be content."
00:08:42Mehdi stayed by his mother's side until the very
00:08:45last moment, until she was
00:08:47satisfied.
00:08:51Despite all these sorrows and unfortunate events,
00:08:55Hajj never lost his motivation for scientific
00:08:58work. He attended to his managerial and university
00:09:02duties with that same motivation.
00:09:06Mehdi knew from the very beginning the path he had
00:09:09chosen, and he knew that the path could not...
00:09:42The head of Nature, in fact, the European
00:09:46editor of Nature, was sent to Iran. He came,
00:09:49quickly took a tour,
00:09:52and returned. There, he wrote
00:09:56two articles analyzing
00:09:58why Iran
00:10:02is fossil-rich. It's the first.
00:10:05Iran is first.
00:10:08Iran's Long March, the great Iranian march.
00:10:13The subtitle that, as you, dear friends, know,
00:10:17says that the scientific
00:10:20authority in Iran is being
00:10:23rebuilt.
00:10:26Unless it is stopped by political
00:10:29unrest or additional sanctions.
00:10:32In 2004 and 2005, it was
00:10:35198.
00:10:40It was a very difficult task with all this great work, but he accepted, as they say,
00:10:44he went into the lion's mouth,
00:10:47but he believed that it would become a lion's den. Perhaps
00:10:50no minister, no university president
00:10:54has seen anyone like this
00:10:58person who is so involved in the discussion of
00:11:01development, in the discussion of innovation, in the discussion of
00:11:04new ideas and mastery of the
00:11:07subject matter. For example, you have a document
00:11:10that says, for example, which province is ranked what in research.
00:11:13Believe me, during the time that Dr.
00:11:17was not there for a century, the entire presence of
00:11:20Dr. Azad University as the president of Azad University of the country
00:11:23is 98.
00:11:27Four who are martyred.
00:11:29He used to say that Western
00:11:33countries and America allow
00:11:36other countries to have science to a certain extent.
00:11:40Well, beyond that, if our scientists'
00:11:43heads hit the ceiling of this red
00:11:47line, they will confront and eliminate them.
00:11:50This was his view. He said the edge of science. He said Ali Mohammadi
00:11:54Shahriyari's group knew more than what the
00:11:57enemy had drawn for them.
00:11:59That's why
00:12:02this animosity happens.
00:12:05Peace be upon you. Peace be upon you. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most
00:12:09Merciful. With praise and thanks to
00:12:12the presence of the Almighty God, and greetings to the Seal of Prophets and his
00:12:16noble household, according to explicit
00:12:20documents, the scientific development of the United States and England in recent
00:12:23years has progressed. The progress of other
00:12:27countries and the changing geography of
00:12:30research and education, and even after decades of American and
00:12:34European leadership, is considered a threat to the
00:12:37dominance of these countries. Therefore, from the
00:12:40perspective of the West, the scientific progress inspiring Islamic
00:12:43Iran, with its nuclear, missile,
00:12:46space, and converging sciences and technologies,
00:12:50and changes in the foundations of social humanities, must be
00:12:53stopped.
00:12:56We must note that the cessation of support for
00:13:00national mega-projects and university research
00:13:03has not been without effect
00:13:06on the audacity of the other side and its treachery.
00:13:09Finally, I would like to point out that disheartening
00:13:12and frustrating scientists, especially
00:13:16nuclear scientists, is one of the main goals of the enemies of the Islamic
00:13:20Republic. The implementation of international treaties should not be such
00:13:23that it causes restrictions in the execution of
00:13:27projects, cuts financial resources, and induces
00:13:31despair among scientists and even
00:13:34supporting businesses
00:13:35and workers.
00:13:40One Monday, my wife came to the university to pick me up. We went to get
00:13:44wedding invitations. I was sitting
00:13:47in the car as we were going towards Baharestan.
00:13:51My wife told me that one of her colleagues, I was at school in the morning, said
00:15:28Ali Mohammadi studied in Iran. He told a beautiful story. He said
00:15:31it takes 50 years for someone like Ali Mohammadi to be
00:15:35nurtured. If all these conditions of
00:15:38time and place remain the same, it will take 50
00:15:42years.
00:15:45Well,
00:15:49when I became the president of Shahid Beheshti, I told these ambassadors
00:15:52to come and see me. What kind of creature am I? I told
00:15:56the German ambassador that I am a physicist and I teach the history of
00:16:00science. You once persecuted Galileo, and
00:16:03hundreds of years later, you received a black response.
00:16:08You will not be able to answer for what you are doing to Iran today 100
00:16:11years from now. You killed Shahriyari, you sanctioned
00:16:15the university. You sanctioned information
00:16:18sources. The German ambassador turned
00:16:22around and said, "I agree with
00:16:24you. We have held everything hostage against you, and
00:16:28science as well."
00:16:30That's why the West sanctions Shahid Beheshti. It sanctions
00:16:34Mr. Tehranchi. The institution of
00:16:37power is the institution of science. Without the institution of
00:16:41science, other institutions are
00:16:42meaningless.
00:16:46Martyr Shahriyari was assassinated at the entrance of
00:16:49Mahallati town when he was going to Shahid Beheshti
00:16:52University. What happened
00:16:56that day was that my father was a little busy with work and so on.
00:16:59He left the house a little
00:17:03later than usual. The incident
00:17:05that happened to Martyr Shahriyari,
00:17:09immediately, Martyr Shahriyari's driver
00:17:13called, and my father's driver,
00:17:17who had just come out at the moment of the
00:17:20assassination and had seen the events, the first thing he did was
00:17:24call my father's driver, and my father's driver immediately
00:17:28called my father and told him not to come out.
00:17:31This was the incident that later security
00:17:34friends said that more than two assassinations were planned for that
00:17:38day, which led to the assassination of Martyr Shahriyari and Martyr Abbasi,
00:17:42whose assassination was unsuccessful. Martyr
00:17:46Shahriyari was martyred.
00:17:49But they said it was more than that.
00:17:52The danger that I was sure would definitely happen one
00:17:56day was after the martyrdom of Martyr
00:17:59Fakhrizadeh. With the evidence we have from
00:18:03his desk, from the papers that this
00:18:05assassination event
00:18:07would be carried out for him,
00:18:11but he had absolutely told none of us anything.
00:18:15The fact that my father was really happy
00:18:17that Israel and America
00:18:21were trying to assassinate him or impose sanctions
00:18:24on him, or for years Israeli
00:18:28media reported on this, my father
00:18:31always said that it was like a
00:18:35medal of honor for him that much in the eyes of Israel and
00:18:39America. But the truth is it was difficult,
00:18:42the stress was difficult, and
00:18:45all these years, when my phone rang outside
00:18:48regular hours, my hands and feet would
00:18:51tremble. The only thing that came to my mind was that
00:18:55probably they had hit him, especially
00:18:59this.
00:19:07On the sixth floor, from this
00:19:11adjacent unit, one person was martyred, meaning there was a young couple
00:19:13whose wife was martyred.
00:19:17On this side, there were also four
00:19:20neighbors. The wife's
00:19:23daughter was killed by the blast that destroyed the walls between the two
00:19:27houses, and
00:19:3016 people were martyred from all the floors.
00:19:34طبقات.
00:19:46A month before his martyrdom, he called
00:19:49me and said, "These are my articles,
00:19:52correct them." Well, they had students who corrected them,
00:19:56they had joint articles, and
00:20:00they had removed these
00:20:03to, now, this is the doctor's own
00:20:08words, "they want to do something wrong."
00:20:11He meant assassination, so that when I am not
00:20:15around, people search for who Tehranchi
00:20:18is, and they say, "Look, this was a nuclear
00:20:22scientist." As friends said, they had misspelled the doctor's
00:20:25name so that when you search for Mohammad
00:20:28Mehdi Tehranchi, you don't find
00:20:31his articles.
00:20:35were together, but the
00:20:39security detail didn't allow us to leave the house
00:20:42together.
00:20:46Mahdi, along with his protection team, left the house a little
00:20:50earlier.
00:20:52After a while, I set off in my own car. On our
00:20:56way, suddenly two ambulances with their sirens
00:20:59blaring passed by my car. It seemed an
00:21:03accident had happened ahead.
00:21:06All the pain in the world poured into my heart. I
00:21:10was certain something had happened to Mehdi. I
00:21:14couldn't drive properly. I pulled
00:21:16over to the side of the highway and suddenly burst out.
00:21:51media but
00:21:53we are from the school of an Imam
00:21:56whose 72
00:21:59companions and himself were
00:22:02killed in front of his family
00:22:05and wives and children, but the religion
00:22:09continued and gained strength.
00:22:13Someone who reaches the status of a scholar
00:22:15is not just intelligent,
00:22:19but also pure-hearted.
00:22:21There is
00:22:24a sun hidden in a particle,
00:22:26suddenly that particle
00:22:30will open its mouth,
00:22:34and the heavens and earth will become particles
00:22:37before that sun, when it emerges from
00:22:41its shell.
00:22:45If you worked hard for your
00:22:48country,
00:22:51you must also expect a reward.
00:22:55A person who has no enemies, in
00:22:59my opinion, does not exist. The more
00:23:02ruthless your enemy is, the more serious
00:23:05it means
00:23:07that, in my opinion, you have been more effective in your life. Well, how is life going?
00:23:11You should ask my wife how strange life has been that
00:23:14we can no longer walk together, we can't go anywhere together, we can't.
00:23:18Wherever you go, there are guards and so on. It's part of life.
00:23:22For example, if we want to leave, everyone is a partner.
00:23:24In other words, this is part of it. But let me tell you something,
00:23:27Mr. Najasat, today, with all these
00:23:31hardships, I perhaps
00:23:34knew the day when I
00:23:37believed that we should dedicate
00:23:40all our lives, our knowledge, God's blessings
00:23:44to the good people of this country and the great
00:23:47name of this country. That day too,
00:23:51I knew it wasn't without trouble, but I didn't think it would be so painful. I mean, that day,
00:23:55I used to say you are comfortable in Tehran,
00:23:58outside of Tehran, I didn't know it would be difficult even in Tehran,
00:24:01but I'm not a bit regretful. I mean, if I could go
00:24:05back, I would follow the same
00:24:07path again.
00:24:10About two weeks before, I think it was
00:24:14Sha'ban, the month of Sha'ban,
00:24:16we went on a trip that happened very
00:24:20coincidentally. Suddenly, we told Hajj Agha Reza,
00:24:24his brother, that we wanted to go to Karbala. He said, "Okay, I
00:24:27will make the arrangements so that we can
00:24:30go together." I, along with my four sisters
00:24:33and Hajj Agha Reza, went on a two or three-day
00:24:37land trip. We joined them and went
00:24:40there for a pilgrimage and thank God, we were able to visit
00:24:44both Najaf and Karbala. Then,
00:24:47in Karbala, when we wanted
00:24:51to return, we wanted to say goodbye
00:24:54and return.
00:24:56He always used to say, he often used to say, "Pray that I will be martyred with Dr.
00:25:00We said, "How do you know?" Sometimes I would jokingly ask him, "How do you know Dr.
00:25:03will be martyred?" He said, "No, I know that he will eventually be martyred, but
00:25:07pray that I will be with him." Then I said, "Okay, God willing,
00:25:11may He grant your wish." Then during the farewell pilgrimage, as we were
00:25:14coming, in the area between the two
00:25:17shrines,
00:25:19they lined us all up and said, "Stand facing the shrine of Imam
00:25:23Hussein." We also stood facing the shrine and
00:25:26he said, "Pray that I will be martyred."
00:25:30I jokingly told him, "Are you saying it again?" He said, "No, pray that I will be
00:25:33martyred so that I can be with Dr.
00:25:36Well, we said okay, and we prayed for him
00:25:40that God willing, his wish would be granted. All his wishes were granted, just
00:25:44as he
00:25:44wished.
00:25:53The month before her martyrdom, Haj Khanum had a dream about Haj
00:25:56Qasem, who gave her six
00:25:58pieces of Karbala soil. She recounted this
00:26:02dream to Dr. and said, "Sir, I had such a dream, and in short,
00:26:06we don't know who to give the other two
00:26:09to. We didn't understand who they wanted to give these four
00:26:13to." Dr. jokingly told his friends, "Sir, we have four pieces of Karbala
00:26:16soil." In short, for the martyrdom, it was the soil of Haj
00:26:20Qasem. Haj Khanum saw this dream. You see, then
00:26:24we see that on the day of their martyrdom, even though
00:26:27there were five guards in the house, four of them were
00:26:31martyred. One of them had a closet fall on him and
00:26:35was not martyred. Some of the children were on the fifth
00:26:37floor. Then we realized that the two pieces of soil belonged to Haj Khanum
00:26:41herself, and the four were for the companions of Hajj.
00:26:57In fact, we
00:27:01had a river. We throw a stick into this
00:27:03river, but our difference, our point has only been
00:27:07that they threw us into this river,
00:27:11and you are looking at the issue from
00:27:14the perspective of that dry stick. The idea that
00:27:17we were something, no,
00:27:21our only art has been to be a dry
00:27:24stick and try not to have too many
00:27:28branches and leaves, as they say, so we don't get
00:27:31stuck. It should be
00:27:35easy to go with this
00:27:38water. Therefore,
00:27:40the main point is that all this narrative
00:27:44is the narrative of a generation in a cradle, a soldier in a cradle.

00:28:44Social media platforms are vying to get the attention of more and more
00:28:48users because it means more money for
00:28:51them, but it isn't a new
00:28:54phenomenon.
00:28:56It has roots in the past decades since newspapers were the only
00:29:00mass media.
