“Iran enters diplomatic or military field fully armed”

Ayatollah Khamenei made the remarks in a meeting with the head and executives of the judiciary held at Imam Khomeini (RA) Husseinya on Wednesday morning, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).

The Leader hailed the “great job” the Iranian nation did during the 12-day imposed war on the country for blowing away the hostile plots and lauded the remarkable unity of the Iranian people from diverse political and religious spectrum.

Ayatollah Khamenei said,” The great epic of the people during the 12-day war originated from their determination and national self-confidence since having the mere morale to confront a power like America and its savage dog, Zionist Israeli regime, is quite valuable.”

The Leader addressed “both friends and foes” that the Iranian nation does not enter a field as the weaker side and added,” We are equipped with all necessary means, among them rationality and military capabilities, therefore we will enter the diplomatic and military fields fully armed.”

Ayatollah Khamenei emphasized,” Although we found the Zionist regime as a cancerous tumor and the US as its criminal supporter, we did not begin the war, however our response was harder whenever we were attacked.”

The Leader noted the dependence of the Israeli regime to the American military support and said,” If the regime was not sealed to the ground and was able to defend itself, it would not have asked for the US’s help but the Tel Aviv regime understood it could not outdo the Islamic Republic of Iran.”

Ayatollah Khamenei also praised Iran’s retaliatory attack on the US as a hard blow to Washington and added,” Whenever the news censorship is lifted, we will know the extent of damage Iran inflicted upon America although bigger blows to the US and others are also possible.”

The Leader highlighted importance of national solidarity as a vital issue that prevented the hostile plots to materialize and said,” Enemies’ plot was to attack some officials, important figures and sensitive sites in order to undermine the system preceding to involving hidden thugs from MeK to monarchists and rubbles in order to provoke the public and drag them to the streets in order to topple the system.

Ayatollah Khamenei called the cooperation and unity of people with different religious and political views as the reason that created the massive national solidarity and reiterated necessity of safeguarding this unity.

In this meeting held with the judiciary executives and officials, Ayatollah Khamenei hailed the measures by the branch as “satisfactory” and emphasized legal pursuit of the crimes committed during the 12-day war at Iranian and international tribunals.
