• We are on the side of the oppressed which-ever pole they may be in. Palestinians are oppressed by the Israelites, therefore we side with them.
• We fully support our Palestinian brothers and those of southern Lebanon in their fights against the usurper Israel.
• Neither the Iranian Muslim nation, nor any other Muslims and, as a matter of fact, no open-minded individual, will recognize Israel. We shall always support our Arab and Palestinian brothers.
• We must all rise, destroy Israel and replace it with the heroic Palestinian nation.
• The Quds Day which is coincidental with the Night of Destiny (Lailatul-Qadr) must be revived among the Muslims and be the starting point of their awakening and awareness.
• Muslims of the world should regard the Quds Day as All-Muslims Day or the oppressed People's Day.
• It is the intonation of Allah-o-Akbar, the cry of our nation, that disappointed the Shah in Iran and the usurpers in Palestine. Essentially, it is the duty of all Muslims to liberate the Quds and remove this nucleus of evil from Islamic lands.
• The issue of Quds is not a private or personal issue. It is not the exclusive problem of one country nor a present-day problem of all Muslims. Rather, it is a phenomenon concerning the monotheists and faithful people of all ages-past, present and future.
• Quds belongs to the Muslims and must be returned to them.
• The Quds Day is the Day of Islam.
• The Quds Day is a day in which the destinies of the oppressed nations must to determined.

• The Quds Day is a day in which Islam is to be revived.
• The Quds Day is Islam's Live Day!
• The Quds Day which fall on the last days of the God's Great Month (Ramadan) is a proper day on which all Muslims be freed from the bondage of the Big Satan (Great Devil, USA) and other superpowers and join the Infinite Might of God.

THE QUDS OCCUPATIONIST REGIME (ISRAEL)

• It is a duty of the proud nation of Iran to harness the interests of America and Israel in Iran and invade them.
• It is necessary for oil producing Islamic countries to use the oil and other things available to them as weapons against Israel and the colonisers.
• It is incumbent on all Muslims especially Muslim countries to do away with this core of corruption any way possible.
• This degenerative tumour that has, with backing of major powers, been planted in the heart of Islamic states and whose roots daily threaten the Islamic lands must be removed with help and effort of Islamic states and the great nations of Islam.

THE ARROGANTS AND THE SUPERPOWERS

• We would surely destroy all arrogant powers if we could have the power to do it.
• The peace and safety of the world is keyed to the extinction of the arrogant. As long as these domineering, uncultured group exist on earth, the oppressed will not gain the inheritance that Almighty God has granted them.

• The aim is just one-the defeat of the superpowers.
• It is our duty to stand and oppose the superpowers and we have the power to do so.
• We are so suspicious of the superpowers that if they speak the truth we think that they say so to deceive the people.
• Today, all superpowers collectively oppose this nation in all its Islamic aspects. We must wake up and realize that their propaganda is more harmful to us than wars.
• The basic purpose of colonizing governments is to wipe out the Quran, the ulema and Islam itself.
• That day is blissful to us in which the domination of worldmongers over this oppressed nation and over other oppressed nations is smashed and all nations take their destinies in their own hands.
• The slap-in-the face which the superpowers received from Iran, was matchless in all their lives.

NATURE OF THE USA GOVERNMENT

• We have been hurt more by America than by all others.
• American domination carries with it the entire miseries of the oppressed nations.
• America is the number-one-enemy of the oppressed and deprived peoples of the world.
• America says 'we have interests in the Region.' Why should it have interests in our Region and why should the interests of the Muslims belong to America!?
• Muslim nations hate foreigners generally, Americans, especially.
• Let the world know that any trouble that Iranian nation and Muslim nations have is caused by foreigners, by America.
• The most important and painful problem that Islamic nations and non-Islamic nations of the dominated states face concerns America.
• All of our distresses are caused by America.
• Our entire misery is by the hand of America.
• America wants you for your oil, wants you as a market, to take away the oil and sell you junk!
• The real enemies of the Quran, Islam and its holy Prophet (SAW) are the superpowers, especially America.
• America, this natural criminal that has set the world on fire and its colleague, world Zionism, to reach their objectives commit crimes that pens and tongues are ashamed to describe.
• Our entire troubles come from America and Israel.
• Let the president of America realize that he is the most hateful individual to our nation.
• The feelings of the Iranian nation concern American government, not American nation.

FIGHTING AMERICA

• Shower all your cries down on America.
• Today, America is the number one enemy of our whole nation.
• Cold and warm weapons, that is , pens, words and machineguns should all be aimed at the enemies of mankind, headed by America.
• We believe Muslims should unite and together slap America and know that they can do it!
• We do not want America to work for us, we override America.
• If opposition to America implies independence of that country, then, by all means, we are opposed to it and if this point is what America is afraid of, then let it remain afraid.
• Our common enemies today are Israel and America and others like them. They want to destroy our prestige and put us back in bondage. Repel the common enemies!
• The stigma that this Movement inflicted on America has never been experienced by any one.
• Our crime is that we oppose America.
• Much better we all perish than live in misery under American or Israeli hands.

• America cannot act as a swaggerer before the Muslims.
• America can't do a damn!
• The fight, the dispute now going on is not America and us, it is between Islam and paganism.
• Counteracting America is presently above all our problems. If today our forces become divided, it benefits America. Right now, America is the enemy and all our equipments should be aimed at this enemy.
• Our perfect happiness comes the day when the domination of all the Eastern and Western colonisers, especially that of worldmongering America is removed from the heads of the Muslims.
• America can defeat us but not our Revolution. for this reason I am confident of our victory. American government does not understand the concept of martyrdom.
• I am confident if we carefully perform and continue our duty which is to fight the criminal America, our children shall taste the sweet nectar of martyrdom.

RELATIONS WITH THIE USA

• Our relation with America is the relations of the oppressed to the oppressor, relations of a robbed person to his robber.
• We are not a protectorate of America or Soviet Union nor of any other power.
• May God awaken those who dream of America.
• The day America praises us that day we must mourn.
• We do not want America to supervise us. We do not want America to take away the entire gains of our nations.
• It is a disgrace for a Muslim country to extend a band to America and ask for bread.
• We shall not establish relations with America unless it became humane and give up oppressing others.
• We will establish relations with America and the USSR provided they do not interfere in our domestic affairs and have good relations with us.

THE WEST AND WESTERNIZATION

• By autosuggestion we must realize that nothing goes on in the West except the idea of keeping us behind from the caravan of progress and civilization.
• We accept the advancements of the Western world but not the Western corruption of which they themselves complain.
• The progress of the West is materialistic, it rears the world as a wild fighting beast.
• Western upbringing or education has divested mankind of his humanism.
• We have come to believe that everything is in the West. No! That which is in the West is the training of savage animals.
• We can't be independent, we can't have anything unless we purge our minds of westernization and come to know ourselves.

THE ORIENT

• The Orient has lost itself It has to find itself
• The Orient must wake up and separate its account from the West as far as it can if possible to the end, at least separate its culture.

COMMUNISM

• From its inception, Communism has had the most dictatorial governments, its authorities have been most dictatorial, power-hungry and monopolistic persons.
• It is clear to all that from now on communism may be looked up in the museums of World's political history.

INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND HUMAN RIGHTS

• We are in an age when criminals are praised and confirmed rather than being punished.
• These so-called human rights agencies condemn the oppressed rather than the oppressors.
• These agencies that are created for human rights, are all agencies for pilfering mankind.
• They commit so much crime, they turn countries into grounds for massacre and bloodshed yet they claim: 'we cannot see human rights destroyed!'
• We want to act according to the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights. We want to be free. We want independence in our country. We want freedom.
• This, and any other, nation has a right to determine its destiny itself This is a human right and it is embodied in the Human Rights Declaration.
• These (states) speak of human rights but act against it. Islam both respects and observes human rights.

FOREIGN POLICY

• While maintaining independence, we shall have friendly relation with all countries.
• We are on friendly terms with all nations and, if governments behave respectfully, we shall reciprocate in kind.
• The foreign policy of Iran is based in mutual respect with all governments without discriminating among them.
• We shall behave with respect toward all governments provided they do not interfere in our internal affairs and treat us with mutual respect.
• We should have relations with foreign countries which do not mean to swallow us. Relations with those who seek to subordinate us through relations are not required and these must be dealt with caution.

• We are not prepared to let a government use economic exchanges as levers for political influence and imposition of its colonialization aims.
• World conditions no longer admit a few to be "masters" and all others to be "slaves".
• Just as we do not accept oppression in our relations with other countries, we do not oppress others.
• Relationships between a nation that has risen to free itself from the clutches of International pilferers and a worldmonger is always in the interest of the pilferer and the loss of the oppressed.
• We oppose any country, whether Eastern or Western, that wants to oppress others.
• Today the only non-aligned country is Iran. You cannot find another country that is 'non-aligned in the real sense".
• Destroy anyone in any position who may want to compromise with the East or the West, drive him away as ruthlessly as you can.
• Defence of Islam and the Hizbullah (Party of God) is the unimpeachable principle of the policies of the Islamic Republic.
• We cannot separate our own account from that of other Muslims.
• Care for the affairs of Muslims is a most necessary duty.
• Tending to the affairs of Muslims is a very important religious duty.
• We hope that the Islamic nations will overcome colonialization in near future, we shall not spare any assistance when due.
• Our state is an independent sovereign state, and we are on friendly terms with those states that do not interfere in our domestic business.

MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND THE EMBASSIES

• The Foreign Ministry can, by Islamization, better than any other agent, demonstrate our Islamic substance to people abroad.
• This Ministry, that has to do with all other countries of the world, is more sensitive than any other ministry.
• The responsibility of Foreign Ministry is very heavy because of its dealings abroad therefore, try, as much as possible, to place your embassies in the path of Islamic growth, progress and advancement to high status.
• When people come to our embassies, they should see an Iranian setting not an American or French environ.
• If embassy conditions, its staff, its management and attitudes be not in conformity with standards of the Islamic Republic, it is better not to have them.
• Our embassies must be centers of publicity.
• The representatives of the Islamic Republic abroad must perfectly conform to Islamic Order.

GOVERNMENTS OF ISLAMIC STATES

• The misfortunes of the Islamic states is caused by interference of foreigners in their affairs.
• Regional governments must know that in time of trouble neither America nor any other power will support them.
• For more than 20 years past I have been recommending to the heads of Islamic states, either in my sermons or talks, to put aside the minor local disputes and unite in deeds and minds for advancement of Islam and its aims.
• The problem of Islam is its Islamic governments not its nations.
