Iranian Envoy: Only Resistance, Jihad Can Liberate Palestine
Hamas Militants In Gaza
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Ambassador to Beirut Mohammad
Fathali strongly condemned the recent Israeli attacks on the
Palestinians, and underlined that Palestinians should continue their
armed struggle against Tel Aviv.
“No option other than Jihad and resistance of the Palestinians can help liberate Palestine or any other occupied land,” Fathali said on Saturday.
He underlined that the international resolutions
which have been issued since the occupation of Palestine in 1948 have
merely postponed a decision about the fate of Palestine to future.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran
will stay beside the Palestinian nation and lays emphasis on the
solidarity of all Palestinian groups in confronting the Zionist regime,”
the Iranian ambassador said.
In relevant remarks earlier this week, Supreme
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei underlined
that Palestinians should continue their armed struggle against Tel
Aviv.
“The armed resistance by the Palestinians is
the only way to confront Israel,” Ayatollah Khamenei said, addressing a
group of Iranian university students in Tehran on Wednesday night.
The Iranian Supreme Leader noted that criminal
acts of wolfish, child-killer Zionist regime in Gaza have revealed its
true nature, and said, “Only way to solve this problem is full
annihilation and destruction of the Zionist regime.
“We should realize that the truth and reality of
the United States is manifested in this approach, and the Iranian
nation, too, will show in the International Quds Day with its huge and
roaring demonstrations that they are the supporters of the oppressed and
the enemies of the oppressors,” added Ayatollah Khamenei.
He noted that as founder of the Islamic Republic late Imam Khomeini used to say “Israel must be annihilated”,
but of course the annihilation of Israel, as a true way to resolve the
problem, does not mean that the Jews in the region should be evacuated,
as for conducting this logical approach there is a practical way that
the Islamic Republic has proposed to the international society.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that in accordance with
Iran’s proposal, which is a favorable method for the world nations, the
people who live there and comprise the true natives of that land should
in a referendum announce the preferred political system, adding, “In this way the usurper and forged regime will be practically annihilated.”
“It would be wrong for anyone to assume that if
the Gaza missiles would not have existed, the Zionist regime would have
come to terms with the Palestinians,” Iran’s Supreme Leader said.
He further noted that in the West Bank where the
people’s only weapons are little stones Israel both kills and humiliates
the Palestinian people.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that based on such
realities “we believe the West Bank, too, should be armed just like Gaza
and those who are interested in the fate of the Palestinians must work
in this respect so that the pains and miseries of the Palestinian people
will be decreased due to their mighty hands and the weakness of the
Zionist enemy.”
Israel has been pounding the blockaded Gaza for 19
consecutive days, killing at least 891 people and injuring more than
5,700 others.
According to the UN, 77% of the victims in Gaza are civilians and defenseless people.
Since July 8, Israeli warplanes have been carrying out incessant airstrikes against Gaza.
On July 17, thousands of Israeli soldiers launched a ground invasion into the densely-populated Gaza Strip.
