RNA – Speaking during a meeting with General Gholamreza Jalali, the head of the National ‎Passive Defense Organization, Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem-Shirazi said that the enemies ‎have been made hopeless, although they have tried all options to counter Iran’s Islamic ‎system and people and said, “In military and political issues, they have reached a dead end ‎and have put all of their efforts toward sanctions, and, fortunately, due to the resistance of ‎the nation, they have not been able to achieve their goals so far.”‎

The revered source of emulation stressed that the enemies and the Americans are caught up ‎in the delusions and issues that the hypocrites suggest to them and said, “They say that if ‎we leave the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JPCOA), such and such will happen to Iran ‎and the situation will collapse, but in reality we saw that their dreams were not interpreted.”‎

He considered the enemies’ investments as a lie and said, “They lie about our country and ‎our people day and night and even some of their electoral rivals say they are embarrassed ‎by these lies.”‎

Ayatollah Makarem-Shirazi stressed that the sanctions are costly for the Americans and the ‎West and added said, “The world imagines that a dictator stands above them and must ‎always follow its commandments and prohibitions and not endure this. That the whispers of ‎this issue have been heard in Europe itself. Besides this, sanctions also have costs for the ‎Americans and are harming them.”‎

The prominent teacher in the Islamic Seminary of Qom said that the sanctions on Iran’s oil ‎will increase its price throughout the world and governments and nations of the world won’t ‎be happy with this issue and added, “American officials speak frequently of November 4th ‎‎[to launch the second wave of sanctions against Iran] but they know that the day will come ‎and noting will happen and due to divine grace, they will be disappointed.”‎

He said more than ever, Iran needs unity, sympathy of the people, officials and various ‎political groups and emphasized, “Today, everyone must abandon factional issues and have ‎concern about solving the problems.” ‎

Ayatollah Makarem-Shirazi emphasized that we must explain to the people that which the ‎media  of the enemies say is baseless and said, “The people must know that the enemies ‎who claim that they are negotiating with Iran every day are looking for an excuse. One day, ‎they make claims about missiles, another day they make claims about human rights, the ‎IRGC, the Popular Mobilization Forces and Hezbollah. The people must know that the ‎Americans’ excuses have no end.”‎

His Eminence emphasized that we have no choice but to resist against the enemies and the ‎Americans and said, “If resistance and unification is created, the enemies’ weapons won’t ‎achieve anything. God-willing, nothing new will occur on November 4th.”‎

He added, “The Americans are bluffing about Iran and this must be well explained to the ‎people.”‎
