Leader
of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says the notion
that the US may come to terms with Islam and Islamic movements is a
mistake.
In
a meeting with hundreds of scholars, academics, thinkers and
researchers participating in the International Conference of Muslim
University Professors and Islamic Awakening, Ayatollah Khamenei said
that ‘any notion that the global arrogance, led by the US, may come to
terms with Islamic movements is wrong.’
“Wherever Islam and Islamic movements are present, the US will make every effort to eliminate them.”
Referring to the violence in Syria, the Leader said, “Those who are driving Syria toward civil war and fratricide are to blame.”
Ayatollah Khamenei added that all the demands of the Muslims must be resolved peacefully.
Hailing
the Palestinian people as well as the resistance movements of Hamas and
Islamic Jihad, the Leader said no one could believe that in a war
between the Gazans and the Israeli regime, “the Palestinian side would
be the one to set conditions for ceasefire.”
“The
enemies are afraid of the phrase Islamic Awakening and try not to use
it,” Ayatollah Khamenei said, adding that the enemies also fear an Islam
which is practiced by large numbers of people.
"We
believe that the current huge movement is a real Islamic Awakening
(movement) and will spread and grow and won't be derailed so easily,"
Ayatollah Khamenei added. "People's Islamic slogans in the regional
revolutions and the role played by Muslim believers in encouraging
massive rallies and overthrowing corrupt regimes altogether signify that
the movement is Islamic."
The
Leader further said that people's yes vote to Islamist parties in the
recent elections was another indication of the Islamic identity of the
recent uprisings.
The
two-day International Conference of Muslim University Professors and
Islamic Awakening began in Iran’s capital, Tehran, on Monday with the
theme of advancing justice and religious democracy.
