(AhlulBayt News Agency) - In an address to a congress to honor the martyrs of Hamedan Province, Imam Khamenei stressed the importance of taking "purposeful, spiritual, deep and influential" moves to keep the culture of martyrdom alive.
Imam Khamenei said “a policy and creepy move" started since more than 20 years ago to isolate the issues of martyrdom, Jihad, martyrs of the eight-year Sacred Defense and the nation's feeling of responsibility.
Imam Khamenei added that the move sought to keep away the Iranian people from developments inside the country surrounding the Islamic Revolution.
He said those who pursued such a policy brought the culture of martyrdom and Jihad into question insolently through direct and indirect ways.
"They introduced the Iranian nation's move during the Sacred Defense as blind, aimless and unmotivated," Imam Khamenei stated.
However, the move was isolated by the Iranian nation, the Imam Khamenei emphasized.
