AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The head of the Islamic Seminaries of Iran said, “Throughout the forty years since the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the arrogant powers have been striving to play down the achievements of the Islamic Revolution.”
Speaking at the meeting on the purpose of organizing the Second International Congress to Commemorate the 140 Martyred Clerics of the Defenders of the Holy Shrines in Qom, Ayatollah Alireza Arafi referred to the blessings of the Islamic Revolution and stated, “The Islamic Revolution has numerous blessings and its manifestations and blessings can be presented in various dimensions.”
The head of the Islamic Seminaries of Iran continued, “Throughout the forty years since the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the arrogant powers have been striving to play down the achievements of the Islamic Revolution and consider them as insignificant. They have spent a lot of money to make the Iranian people neglect the greatness of the Iranian nation and create indifference in society.”
He considered Iran’s presence in the international arena as among the blessings of the Islamic Revolution and stated, “The presence of the discourse of Islamic Revolution in the international arena has been created waves and built networks and I want to say strongly that this presence in the international arena is based on the axes of legality, rationality and wisdom. While all the powers of the world have gathered to declare our presence in the world as illegal, we declare that the discourse of Islamic Revolution doesn’t have any illegal presence.”
Ayatollah Arafi added, “The dangerous wave of Daesh came with open and hidden support from the United States and Israel, which Iran escaped with the help of friendly states. Its assistance to the Islamic Resistance movements in the region against terrorism were completely principled. The attempts to resist against the Takfiri and extremist movements, such as the actions of the Islamic Resistance against Israel, were derived from within. Iran’s actions against Daesh were advisory and based on international law between Iran and countries friendly to us.”
