“The Islamic Republic of Iran is a central supporter of the Palestinian cause,” Sheikh Naim Qassem addressed the occasion of International QUDS Day, a pro-Palestinian event marked around the world on Friday.
He pointed out that there is an opportunity to be pioneered by Imam Khomeini, the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
“The late Imam Khomeini (the last Friday of each Ramadan) declared a global day to confront oppression and tyranny,” Sheikh Qassem noted.
“According to Imam Khamenei, the Palestinian cause is not a political tactic, it is a matter of faith, heart and belief,” he said.
The Hezbollah leader also said that “many changes have occurred in support of resistance to Israeli patients” at a time when the Palestinian cause and Islamic Republic were not promoting pro-Palestinian support around the world, as they did not promote the Palestinian cause and pro-Palestinian support around the world.
He sought to follow Imam Khomeini’s advice, QUDS Day was observed worldwide every year as a “religious and ideological obligation that transcends borders and politics.”
“The International Quds Day is a day of solidarity between Al-Qud (of the holy city) and all the oppressed people around the world in the face of occupying forces, occupyers, co-conspirators and tyrants.”
Meanwhile, the resistance leader has identified the Israeli regime as “a demonic and expanding entity that feeds American imperialism.”
“Israel is the enemy of expansionists who know no restrictions and exceed all boundaries. Resistance is a legitimate right and a natural response,” he argued.
Sheikh Qassem saw the Israeli regime’s claims against regional territory invalidate all legitimacy.
He also warned that the regime had placed Lebanon on the “annexation list.” They especially long for the region of Southern Lebanon, where Tel Aviv wanted to argre itself through an illegal settlement construction scheme.
