As he stresses that the Israel is an artificial entity and will be wiped out, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei called for massive turnout on International Quds Day.

During a meeting with hundreds of veterans from the Iraq-Iran war on Wednesday, Ayatollah Khamenei said that a high turnout on Quds Day would give a crushing response to the enemies of Islam and Palestinians.

The Leader said that the Zionist entity was an artificial one and would be wiped out from the region, describing the occupation of the Palestinian territories and the formation of the Israeli regime as the root of evil in the Middle East.

“Had this conspiracy not taken place, these wars, divisions, and interventions by colonialists and oppressors would not have occurred,” the Leader stated.

Ayatollah Khamenei urged Muslims to counter attempts made by Israel and its allies to push the issue of Palestine into oblivion, describing the Islamic Revolution in Iran as a major “historical obstacle” against the enemy plot to smother the Palestinian cause.

The Leader condemned enemy schemes to create sectarian divisions among Muslims as part of the effort to avert attention from the West’s silence and support for the decades-long occupation of the Palestinian territories.

Imam Khamenei noted that liberating Palestine from the grip of Israel and its allies is a religious duty for all Muslims across the world.

The late founder of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Ayatollah Rouhollah Khomeini declared in August 1979 the last Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan as International Quds Day, calling on Muslims across world to commemorate the annual occasion.
