Why It Matters:
In 1979, the people of Iran under the leadership of the late Imam Khomeini overthrew Iran's Shah with a revolution that paved the way for other people across the world to stand and revolt against Western imperialism and injustice.
What He Is Saying:
"During the regime of Shah, Iran had no development. Some people consider Iran as a state of America. American states were developing and progressing while Iran had nothing to show. Now Iranians do not need others," he emphasized.
Key Points:
- Islam is the solution and protector for the oppressed nations in the world from imperialism and oppression of America and the West.
- the whole world especially Islamic countries has become aware and awakened due to the Iranians' Islamic revolution.
- If the revolution had not been founded on genuine Islamic principles, it likely would not have survived.
- Despite Western sanctions, the Islamic Republic is still developing.
- The world has come to understand that Islam is the religion of progress and civilization.
