When the Leader of the Islamic Revolution calls the Islamic Republic of Iran is a “mighty unshakeable tree”, he is not exaggerating.
As a matter of faith he is speaking the undeniable truth, as the avowed enemies of the Iranian people very well know from their string of failures of the past 43 years during which they have always ended up in a state of dizziness with badly bruised heads bleeding from the hits received from the twigs of the firmly rooted tree.
Of course, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei was not referring to the recent scattered incidents of rioting in some localities of Tehran and a few other cities by thugs, traitors, and terrorists, whose crimes the western media tried to magnify out of proportiion, but ended up in disgrace, thanks to the massive million-strong rallies of committed men and Hijab-clad women – the latest one in the centre of Tehran yesterday.
The mighty unshakeable tree of the Islamic Republic, whose steadily growing branches ensure the security and welfare of the Iranian people in addition to providing shade for the independent governments, movements, and people of the region, has foiled the American bids to invade, hatch coups, impose a war, murder scientists and senior military commanders, unleash the most macabrely murderous terrorists in such friendly countries as Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, illegally freeze assets, clamp economic sanctions, and instigate characterless men and women to indulge in scattered cases of urban terrorism.
Washington is totally wrong in thinking the outcasts of the society with no roots in either Islamic faith or Iranian culture and who cannot even be called humans in view of their desecration of sanctities, obscene sloganeering, and indecent attire, can axe at least a few branches of this giant tree.
It has even utterly failed to mislead the Iranian expatriates in the Americas and Europe – majority of whom are patriots of persons of faith – to support its propaganda campaign against the Islamic Republic.
This is fully evident by the rabble the enemies often gather in front of Iranian embassies and diplomatic missions abroad to shout slogans against the Islamic Republic and vie with one another to prove who is more slavish to the western imperialism and international Zionism.
What a crazy thought! How can a country nurtured by sacred blood of martyrs and flourishing on the faith and dedication of scores of millions of Iranian Muslim men and women active in all spheres of society, be overrun and handed over to the minions of the US, Britain, France, and Israel?
Revolution requires roots to triumph and continue its triumphant course, as the dedicated Iranian Muslim masses have constantly shown from 1978 till this date, helping the country achieve spectacular success in all fields, including medicine, modern science and technology.
No wonder, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, at the mention of whose name the US and its comrades-in-crimes shake in fear, has called the Islamic Republic of Iran a mighty unshakeable tree.
