Ahlul Bayt News Agency ; Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on Tuesday that that fact that millions of people are now homeless or live in poverty is among bitter realities of the US society.
Imam Khamenei made the remarks in a meeting with Friday prayer leaders from throughout the country in Tehran on Tuesday.
The Iranian president merely revealed parts of realties and statistics during his splendid speech at the UN headquarters in New York, said Imam Khamenei.
Bullying powers have monopolized the world’s assets and wealth for a few individuals and their followers, said the Imam Khamenei, adding that the standard of living in the US citizens from various walks of life is a good evidence of this fact.
Shocking statistics about the US indicate that the Iranian president in his speech revealed pure realities about the standard of living and poverty in the US, said Ayatollah Khamenei.
The Iranian nation is determined to seriously deal with the US hegemony and fully backs oppressed Muslims particularly the Palestinians, the Imam Khamenei said.
It is quite natural for the big powers to threaten those nations not yielding to such threats, Ayatollah Khamenei stated.
Resistance is among main teachings of Islam and Holy Quran, said the Imam Khamenei.
The Friday prayers leaders should exercise vigilance in dealing with social issues, pointed out the Imam Khamenei.
All should be vigilant vis-a-vis the plots being hatched by enemies, Ayatollah Khamenei said.
The Iranian youths are the main target of enemies because they are the engine of the society, said Ayatollah Khamenei.
From the early stages of the Islamic Revolution the enemies have been bent on dealing a blow on the youths and in order to foil this it is necessary for the Friday prayer leaders to be vigilant, the Imam Khamenei cautioned.
