Leader Celebrates Monday Rallies as a Powerful Show of Support for the Islamic Revolution

In a recent meeting, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, praised the remarkable turnout of citizens participating in the rallies commemorating the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution. This significant event has not only showcased the unity of the Iranian people but also highlighted the strong voice of President Masoud Pezeshkian, whose “clear and decisive” speech resonated with the populace.

During a Wednesday gathering with scientists, specialists, and officials from Iran’s defense sector, as well as families of martyrs, Ayatollah Khamenei reflected on the importance of the recent celebrations. He stated, “This recent Bahman 22 (February 10) was one of the most outstanding celebrations of the [Islamic] Revolution – one of the most significant ones.” He described the rallies as a “popular uprising” against the enemy’s extensive propaganda efforts aimed at undermining the Islamic Revolution.

  • Widespread Participation: The Leader emphasized that citizens across the nation, including rural areas, demonstrated their commitment despite harsh weather conditions.
  • Message of Unity: The participation of the youth conveyed a strong “message of unity” from the Iranian nation.
  • Showcasing Strength: Ayatollah Khamenei noted that the turnout was extraordinary, showcasing the nation’s “identity, dignity, strength, and resilience” against threats.

Furthermore, he commended President Pezeshkian’s remarks for complementing the popular movement, stating, “Complementing this great popular movement on Bahman 22 were the clear and decisive remarks of the esteemed president, who voiced the people’s concerns and articulated what needed to be said.” The Leader encouraged the youth to act decisively at the right moments, underscoring that the Iranian nation did just that during the recent rallies.

Prior to the meeting, Ayatollah Khamenei spent an hour at the Eghtedar-1403 exhibition, which displayed the advancements and capabilities of Iran’s defense industry. This exhibition showcased:

  1. Advanced air defense systems
  2. Ballistic and cruise missiles
  3. Smart munitions
  4. Space technology
  5. Drones and aviation
  6. Naval vessels
  7. Energy systems

During his visit, he highlighted the importance of national defense, stating that Iran’s military capabilities are now respected by allies and feared by adversaries. “Iran’s defensive power is now widely recognized – admired by the ‘friends of the Revolution’ and feared by its enemies,” he noted. The Leader also recalled a time when global powers were reluctant to sell Iran essential military equipment, even at high prices.

Ayatollah Khamenei pointed out the stark contrast between past and present attitudes of these powers, stating, “Those same powers now demand that Iran refrain from selling military equipment to others.” This shift, he attributed to the hard work of Iranian scientists and specialists who have successfully bridged the gap between the past and present.

In conclusion, Ayatollah Khamenei emphasized that Iran’s defense industry has made remarkable strides, and if any part is withheld from them, Iranian youth are capable of producing even better versions domestically, showcasing the resilience and ingenuity of the nation.
