Israel will eventually collapse despite arrogant powers’ support, says President Raeisi
Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi says the Israeli regime will definitely disappear despite all the unconditional supports it receives from global arrogant powers.
“The fake Zionist regime, which draws support from the global arrogant powers, will certainly disappear. Injustice and oppression can never last forever, and this is a divine pledge. What will last is justice,” he told people in the northwestern city of Zanjan on Saturday.
Raeiei said the enemies’ animosity towards the Iranian nation, the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the Islamic establishment and late top anti-terror commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani is due to the fact that the Islamic Republic as well as Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei attach special importance to the rights of the oppressed Palestinians.
"This is the emphasis of our religion and our policy is to defend the oppressed people of the world," he said.
Raeisi said the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini, brought up the issue of supporting the Palestinian cause and stressed the need for the liberation of the holy al-Quds city and elimination of the Israeli regime as a cancerous tumor more than four decades.
Iran's "insistence on the legitimacy of Palestine after four decades has become clear to the whole world," he said.
Raeisi said while the Iranian people’s support for the Palestinians has generated enmity and verbal attacks against them over the past four decades, they have remained steadfast in their backing.
“During these four decades, the enemy made enmity with the Iranian nation. It sanctioned and threatened, imposed an economic blockade, and waged enmity of various kinds, but the Iranian nation won in this war of wills,” he said.
The president said the enemies, in spite of numerous attempts and threats, have miserably failed in their anti-Iran plots, while young Iranian specialists have acquired and employed cutting-edge technologies.
“They thought they could get us away from the nuclear industry, but they couldn't. It was the same in the military industry, but many great works have been done and many works are in progress.
“They wanted our economy not to grow, but it did. According to statistics, we have more than 5% economic growth. They wanted to stop production, but we revived many inactive and semi-active production units,” Raeisi said.
