Rafsanjani: Iran resists all threats

2003/10/08
IRIB

Tehran, Oct 8 - Chairman of the Expediency Council (EC) Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani here on Wednesday said the Islamic Republic of Iran resists all pressures and threats.

Addressing the 18th meeting of Friday Prayers leaders from all over the country, he stressed on the importance of holding Friday Prayers in all parts of the Islamic Iran.

The former president called on Friday Prayers leaders to inform people of all the country's affairs in order to prepare the ground for their presence in all aspects of the society.

On the people's presence in all elections held ever since the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Rafsanjani said the Islamic Republic system will only exist through active presence of people in all affairs, particularly during such a global and regional sensitive status.

Underlining the need for maintaining unity and solidarity among the Iranian people by the authorities, he pointed out that the global arrogance has made great efforts to overthrow the Islamic system in Iran and will continue its attempt in the future.

The global arrogance is very much concerned over expansion of Islam-seeking wave in the world, he said, adding that the Islamic Revolution has turned to a pattern for all Muslim states.

There are many Moslem fanatic States, and one Jewish State! Can someone explain why there is no Christian, Budist, or Hindu States. I know the Vatican is a Christian State, but it is only a couple of city blocks, and has no army. India does not call itself the Hinhu State, China or Japan do not call themselves the Budist States. Nations should never have partiality to one religion over the others. This, by definition would create systematic discrimination against its own citizens.

Ode to His Holiness The Global Arrogance

Humptysanjani sits on a wall
Humptysanjani shall have a great fall
All the ayatollah's camels
And all the ayatollah's men
Shan't put Humptysanjani back together again.
