Ahmadinejad: Resistance Only Way to Liberate Palestine

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in a meeting with Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniya stressed Iran’s continued support for the Palestinian nation, and said resistance is the only way to liberate Palestine from the occupation of the Zionist regime.

President Ahmadinejad said the Zionist regime and its supporters have acute weak points and that resistance is the only way to liberate occupied Palestinian territories and Holy Quds al-Sharif.

He said that the Zionist regime is a means for the global arrogance to suppress the Muslims worldwide and that Palestine is representing resistance of entire Muslims to the occupying Zionist regime.

Ahmadinejad said that humanity is currently going through a critical period and that resistance must withstand the hegemonic powers in order to make justice prevail in the world.

Haniya felicitated the President on the 33rd anniversary of victory of the Islamic Revolution, and said that presence of millions of people in the streets to celebrate anniversary of the triumph of the Islamic Revolution heralds a promising future and would serve as an invaluable backing for the resistance of the Palestinian people to Israeli occupation.

He said that the Palestinian people’s national resolve and resistance over the past 60 years proved that they will not allow even an inch of their territories to remain under occupation.

Millions of Iranians in Tehran and other cities poured to the streets to show their unconditional support for the Islamic Republic through staging massive rallies on February 11th, marking the 33rd anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

Huge masses of people from all walks of life converged on streets and squares all over the country to express their support for the cause and ideals of the Islamic Revolution.

More than 1,700 foreign reporters have covered the Bahman 22 (February 11) rallies.

In Tehran, demonstrators then congregated at the Azadi Square, Tehran’s main square and the site of major national rallies over the past three decades.

The nationwide rallies also proved to the world that the brave Iranian nation is fully ready to resist and challenge the enemies of Islam and the Islamic Republic.
