RNA – Speaking at Qom’s Imam Khomeini Madrassah (part of al-Mustafa International University), Hujjat al-Islam Mohammad Mohammadi-Golpaygani addressed "the courage and bravery of the Iranian youth" saying: "a recent example of this is the recent capture of American forces near the Persian Gulf’s Farsi Island which humiliated the country which claims to be the undisputed superpower of the world, even over European and independent nations."

Supreme Leader’s Chief of Staff said that Iran’s actions presented a message to the United States that this is the fate of anyone who threatens Iran’s honour and also warned Saudi Arabia that this is an example of our strength.

Hujjat al-Islam Mohammad Mohammadi-Golpaygani, referred to Ayatollah Khamenei’s second letter to the youth of Europe and North America saying that the greatest asset of any country is its human resources, who play a fundamental role in the development of the country. He added that the youth are the flagship of every country as they lead to the blooming of a country in every field.

He pointed to the two letters written to the youth of the West by Iran’s Leader after the terrorist attacks in Paris, saying the Supreme Leader spoke directly to the young people of the West, saying that their politicians have misled the younger generation and encouraged the youth not to listen to their politicians or pay attention to the Islamophobia they propagate but rather to research Islam from its primary sources – the lifestyle of the Prophet Muhammad and the Holy Quran.

Hujjat al-Islam Mohammadi-Golpaygani explained that terrible crimes which are far worse than what happened in Paris are occurring in Muslim countries every day, including the burning of homes in Palestine by Zionist forces and settlers, but Western politicians have been silent and the ears of the world have been deafened over the terrorist attacks in Paris.
