'Astonishing increase of female scientists is a source of pride for Islamic Revolution'

The fact that there are so many knowledgeable, educated, broad-minded and outstanding women--in intellectual and practical areas--in our society is really one of the greatest glories of the Islamic Republic. This is an extremely wonderful blessing and a great source of honor.

'The obscenity of supporting Zionists is no less than supporting Nazis'

Today, the behavior of Europeans and Americans [in U.S.], or the materialistic civilization, represents a huge contradiction. They reject the racist behavior of Nazis against the Jews; but, surprisingly, they support Zionists who share some common or similar aspects with the Nazis.

Hijab gives women freedom and identity: Ayatollah Khamenei

Hijab brings about dignity. It makes women more valuable. It increases women's dignity and respect. Therefore, it is necessary to appreciate hijab and to be thankful to Islam for emphasizing hijab.

Hazrat Zeinab (as) proved a woman can play a role in society that no man can do

Lady Zeinab represents a multi-dimensional personality: she is wise and well-educated with great knowledge; a distinguished person; anyone who meets her, feels humble before the greatness of her wise soul and her insight.

Zionists' efforts to promote Islamophobia will be counterproductive: Ayatollah Khamenei

Their effort to create Islamophobia will produce the opposite result. Their actions will make the youth curious about Islam. If the masses of the people in the world are given a little nudge and if we attract their attention, they will begin to understand why the Zionist press and television networks - those which are dependent on powerful and well-to-do cliques - launch so many attacks on Islam.

U.S. seeks to protect the Zionist Regime through promoting terrorism in Syria

American politicians themselves have acknowledged in their analyses – whether knowingly or unknowingly – that they should wage war and create discord in West Asia and pit Muslims against each other so that the Zionist regime can have security and live a comfortable life.

Iranian women played a pioneering role in 1979 Revolution: Ayatollah Khamenei

Iranian women rose up at a time when only a few religious scholars and outstanding personalities were involved in the issue. They arranged a gathering and blocked the path of the ruler of the time. The ruler ran away from them and went into hiding in his palace. Later on the agents of the government beat them up.

Since 1979, Iran has championed the cause of Palestinian self-determination

After the Palestinian resistance, it was the Islamic Republic of Iran, which drove this slow but steady tide against the racist state. Lebanese Sunni scholar, Sheikh Ahmed al-Zein, pointed out that it was Iran’s leader Imam Khomeini who ‘moved the focus onto Palestine, not out of hatred of Judaism but to safeguard human dignity, to safeguard justice, and in rejection of aggression, racism and extremism’. Since 1979, the Islamic Republic consistently elevated and championed the cause of Palestinian self-determination.

The U.S. must be held accountable before global public opinion: Ayatollah Khamenei

You who claim to be supporting human rights should answer public opinion of the world.  When thousands of children and thousands of men, women and civilians are killed inside their houses and in hospitals and schools without any defense, is this not terrorism? Is this not the most brazen and cruel form of state terrorism? Why do you support it? However, the U.S. does not answer these questions. They have no shame and they make claims about advocating human rights!
