Ayat. Jannati: Iran not to yield to US

Ayat. Jannati: Iran not to yield to US

Friday prayers leader of Tehran Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati says Iranian people will not yield to the US.

Delivering his second Friday prayers sermon here at Tehran University campus, Ayatollah Jannati said, “Today, the US power has downgraded worldwide and crisis has ripped through the US and Europe as Islamic awakening has spread; today is the day of encountering the US as much as we can.”

He went on to say that today, we should make the world understand that our people have always been anti-American, not ready to yield in.

Addressing the US statesmen, Ayatollah Jannati questioned, “Why do you not take lessons from history? Your false claim for troop build-up in Iraq has become known to everybody worldwide; you have brought to Iraq thousands of billion dollars of American people, that 99 percent of whom have been protesting, so as to kill people.

The anti-US wave has spread in all countries, where Islamic awakening is taking place, said Ayatollah Jannati, adding, “You (the US) treat your people harshly; you should know that people can not be treated by force.”

"Ninety-nine percent are standing against one percent," said Ayatollah Jannati, adding that you are advised not to suppress 99 percent of your population just because of interests of the remaining one percent.

Also touching on the US allegations that Iran was involved in assassination of Saudi Ambassador to US, he said Iran has not a record in that connection. “You are yourself the terror agent, killing people in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan. What would Iran gain in assassination of Saudi Ambassador in the US soil?”
