Sayyed: Resistance Is the Key

Sayyed Khamenei to Palestinians: Resistance Is the Key

27/02/2010 The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei said Saturday the Palestinians are the most resilient people in history who will "definitely and undoubtedly" see the freedom of their land.

Sayyed Khamenei described the Palestinian resistance as an amazing phenomenon, which is driving Israel toward "defeat and annihilation."

Resistance is what has united different Palestinian movements as well as having faith in God, his eminence said. "And the supporters of the Zionist regime will find nothing but shame and historic notoriety."

Sayyed Khamenei expressed deep gratitude to the Palestinian nation. "Bearing the atrocities and endless pressures in Gaza and throughout Palestine is impossible without the guidance and assistance of God and the Palestinian nation truly deserves to be named as the most resilient nation in history," his eminence said.

Ayatollah Khamenei also touched upon the 22 day Gaza war and said the Arab governments claim that "the Palestinian issue" is an Arab one but when it comes to helping Palestinians, they left their Palestinian brothers unassisted in front of the enemy and its supporters. The Arab behavior will go down in history, his eminence stressed.

Sayyed Khamenei said the US president's slogan of change was an attempt to repair the damaged image of Washington and said, "such dishonest attempts bore no fruit because the Americans blatantly lie in the issue of Palestine and other issues."

The Leader said the Palestinian issue was a serious challenge for the Western civilization and advocates of liberal democracy. "The resistance of the Palestinian nation has questioned the West's multi-centennial claims of freedom and human rights and has disgraced the West."

Ayatollah Khamenei said the future America will have been defeated by the Palestinian nation. "Without a doubt, the actions of the United States over the past 60 to 70 years in support of the Zionists will be remembered as an instance of this country's dishonor in history."
