This year, the Islamic world observed the demonstration of some parts of the most Muslim nations of the world; the protests existed in the eastern Islamic world which means Indonesia to the western side of the Islamic world which means Africa and Nigeria. Each part of the world that the Muslims were allowed to come to the streets to express their intentions and determination on the Quds day, some people came to the streets and they exhibited what feelings they have towards the issue of Quds; even those Muslims who live in Europe, the minorities who are staying under the pressure of governments and the European institutes, they also honored the Quds day.

This issue indicates that the matter that against what the enemies of Palestine wanted, the issue of Palestine is getting more living day by day in the Islamic world. They aimed to wipe out the name of Palestine from the memory of the Muslim nations.

In fact it was their determination and goal to wipe out the map of Palestine and a nation whose name was Palestine completely from the geography of the Islamic world. They did all of their struggles during the past 60 years that passes from this big disaster; indeed they concentrated all of their efforts on this issue, but what has happened is absolutely on the contrary. It means what they wanted to do and follow was not done at all.

Today the world of Islam is more sensitive to the issue of Palestine and it has more motivations in this field. The reason is that the world of Islam has awakened. If this awakening would be available in 1948 during the year that Palestine was officially occupied by the Zionist, for sure the reality would happen in another form and this bitter event of the Islamic world and this deep wound would not happen on the body of Islamic nation.

Today the Muslims of the world are awake and they know what is happening. Thanks God, they are getting more awake day by day too and it is necessary that I say one of the most important factors for this support and global expansion is the resistance of the brave nation of Palestine.

We would like to express our honor and greeting to the nation of Palestine. This nation has truly proved which it deserves the name of a Muslim country and it is worthy to consider it as a living nation of the world. From here, in front of you Muslim nation we would like to say to the Palestinian people and to the legal government of Palestine and to our Mujahed brother Mr. Haniyeh : “You should know that the nation of Iran has not abandoned you and it will never abandon you too.”?

Also on the other side, the Zionist enemy in regards to its morale and the field of construction reality and foreign existence, it has gotten weaker and weaker gradually.

Today the senior authorities of the Zionist regime admit that day by day their weaknesses is getting increased and for sure the world of Islam will observe the day that it will be fully wiped out and we hope that the current generation of Palestine see this reality. In fact we hope that the current Palestinian nation to observe the day that Palestine be fully freed from the claws of the Zionists and they be the landowner of this country and as a result they be able to live in a way that they like and they want in this land.
