RNA – In an interview with Rasa News Agency, Hujjat al-Islam Nasrollah Pejmanfar, the representative of the people of Mashhad in the Islamic Consultative Assembly, referred to the rallies which were held in various Iranian cities on November 4th to mark the fortieth anniversary of the takeover of the embassy of the United States in Tehran and said, “Today, the enemies have entered into the arena of political issues to create harm in [Iranian] society and put pressure on the people.”
The American embassy was taken over by hundreds of students on November 4, 1979, nearly nine months after the Islamic Revolution dethroned the American-backed Pahlavi regime.
Referring to the enemies’ plots to create polarization among the people of the country, the member of the Islamic Consultative Commission on Cultural Affairs said, “Today, the enemies have made every effort to tear down the different sections of the people and destroy the Islamic system through this means.”
Hujjat al-Islam Pejmanfar noted, “The enemies are always trying to create disparities and fragmentation in the presence of the united people.”
The representative of the people of Mashhad and Kalat in the Islamic Consultative Assembly stated that the epic presence by the people in the rallies today is a nullification of the mistaken fantasies of the enemies and said, “The passionate presence of people in different scenes demonstrated that the propaganda of the enemies is false and wishful thinking.”
He stressed upon the necessity of re-examining the acts of animosity perpetrated by the United States throughout the history of the Islamic Revolution, especially for the younger generation, and noted, “Today, everyone knows that the United States is a disloyal country, has an arrogant approach and has always undermined the rights of the Iranian people.”
Hujjat al-Islam Pejmanfar emphasized the need for building culture in line with the Resistance Discourse in society and stated, “We must stand up against the criminal United States and institutionalize the Resistance Discourse and resistance among society, especially among the younger generation.”
