He gave a speech at the ceremony commemorating the 36th anniversary of the end of the Islamic Revolution leader Imam Khomeini.
“The sudden decline of America’s status in the world is influenced by his existence, and hatred of Zionists is influenced by his revolution,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.
“Today, in the Western world, you are looking at a movement towards a dislike of Western values. The Imam has created such a revolution,” the leader said.
Referring to the hostility towards the Islamic Revolution in recent decades, he said, “In my opinion, the conspiracy against the Islamic Revolution is unprecedented compared to the revolutions of the world.”
Ayatollah Khamenei said, “The Islamic Republic endured all the plot and hostility.”
The Islamic Revolution, he said, had surprised the Western world. He said Iran’s political system has since developed with stability and strength.
Regarding the US claims about Iran’s peaceful nuclear program, he said, “The first US statement is that Iran should not have a nuclear industry. Our response to America’s nonsense claim is clear.
“The nuclear industry is a parent industry. Many scientific fields are influenced by the nuclear industry. Uranium enrichment is key to the nuclear issue, and the enemy is focused on enrichment,” he said.
Israeli government crimes
“Today’s Islamic government has a lot of duties on the issue of Palestinians. Today is not a time of politeness, consideration, and neutrality. Today is not a day to remain silent.”
“They are killing people with bombs and bullets. How sleazy, mean, evil, there are humans! America is conspiring to this crime and they have to be expelled from the area,” he said.
Ayatollah Khamenei said, “If the Islamic State supports the Zionist regime in any way, eternal shame will certainly remain on that amount.”
“The government should know that relying on the Zionist regime does not create security for the government. It will collapse at God’s command and God will not last long,” he added.
