TEHRAN – Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei here on Wednesday said the day will come when the people of Iran and all believing nations will witness the victory of Palestine over its occupiers.
Addressing a group of Iranian laborers on the occasion of National Workers’ Week in Iran, the Leader called on the faithful to remain hopeful and steadfast.
“By God’s help, Palestine will ultimately triumph over the Zionist usurpers. The temporary reign of the forces of falsehood will be perished,” he said.
The Leader touched on the deafening silence of world powers on crimes being committed by Israel in Gaza and elsewhere in Palestine, saying they aren’t something that can be overlooked.
Ayatollah Khamenei said biased global policies are deliberately employed to sideline the Palestinian cause and to blur its urgency in the minds of the people.
“There are biased policies being employed in the world today against nations in efforts to cause people to forget the issues related to Palestine.
“Muslim nations must not allow rumors, various talk, and new issues to divert minds from the Palestinian Issue,” he said.
Ayatollah Khamenei said it is essential to adopt a firm global stance against not only the Zionist regime, but also its well-known supporters.
“The entire world must stand up firmly against the supporters of the Zionist regime. The U.S. is supporting the Zionist regime in the truest sense of the word.”
Ayatollah Khamenei said, “The reality is that the oppressed people of Palestine and Gaza are facing not only the Zionist regime, but also the U.S. and England.”
“Instead of stopping the killing and destruction, they empower and support the criminal regime by sending weapons and equipment,” he added.
Elsewhere in his speech, Ayatollah Khamenei highlighted the profound human and spiritual value of labor. Describing workers as a vital force in society, the Leader said the workers must recognize their worth.
The Leader said making a living with lawful means, without exploitation, parasitism, or encroaching upon others’ wealth, and to fulfill society’s needs by producing goods and services, are two valuable human characteristics, adding in the sight of God, such work is a righteous deed.
Labor, he said, is not merely an economic necessity, but a pillar upon which the continuity and functionality of human life depends.
“Work is the main pillar of human life and its continuity. Without it, life becomes paralyzed.

Though science and capital play crucial roles, it is the worker who animates capital and makes progress possible.”
Touching on the new Iranian year’s slogan of “Investment for Production,” the Leader emphasized that no financial investment can succeed in the absence of the worker’s will and capability.
“Financial investment, without the resolve and capacity of workers, leads nowhere. This is precisely why the enemies of nations, including the enemies of the Islamic Republic, have from the very beginning of the Revolution sought to discourage and provoke the working class against participation in the Islamic Republic’s progress.”
He touched on past and present attempts to sow unrest among workers, saying in the early days of the Islamic Revolution, communist elements tried to bring production to a halt.
“That same motivation exists today. But then and now, our workers have stood firm and struck those agitators with a firm punch in the mouth.”
Ayatollah Khamenei stressed the need to protect the dignity and security of workers. He said to safeguard such a valuable asset, all sectors must fulfill their responsibilities.
“A worker must know that his job is secure, so he can plan his life with confidence and not feel that his future is at the mercy of others’ whims.”
The Leader also underscored the importance of cultivating a healthy workplace culture as he rejected the Marxist notion of inherent contradiction between worker and employer.
“According to Marxist philosophy, the workplace is one of conflict, and workers are to be enemies of factory owners. With this misguided notion, they stalled themselves and the world for decades.
“Islam, by contrast, views the workplace as a setting of alliance, cooperation, and synergy. In such a space, both sides must work sincerely to advance the cause of production.”
