Evolution in the words of Islam versus Darwinism: Ayatollah Khamenei explains

In the logic of Marxists and Dialecticians, evolution is this: becoming more complex. However, within Islamic Logic, all forms of becoming more complex does not mean becoming more evolved.Hence, within the scope of Islamic Logic, evolution is not only becoming more complex; but, evolution happens when an animal essence changes into human essence.

Iran proved Hijab promotes acquiring knowledge among women: Ayatollah Khamenei

Today, in the Islamic Republic of Iran, various fields of sciences are available for women: women who have preserved both their modesty and chastity--their womanly purity, their hijab, thoroughly; raise their children based on Islamic values; take care of their husbands the way Islam advises; while they continue with their scientific and political activities at the same time.

"I will tell you that, by Allah's favor and grace, this year's 22nd of Bahman (February 11th) rally will be a spectacular one. This is because, with the nonsensical statements that some American politicians and others made, the people feel that the enemy is busy setting up an ambush and preparing for an invasion – not necessarily a military invasion, rather this means the intention to show enmity. When the people feel this, they enter the arena. By Allah's favor and grace, this year, the people's presence will be warmer and more enthusiastic than ever. By Allah's favor, everyone will participate." Ayatollah Khamenei, February 8, 2018

Iran's Revolution was a courageous example to the people of the world and a setback for USA

Did you see how barbaric ISIS was? U.S. regime is more barbaric than ISIS

Did you observe the barbaric behavior of ISIS? The U.S. government is even more barbaric than ISIS. The U.S. regime is the same system that created ISIS and the like. The current president of the U.S. mentioned this during his presidential campaigns, listed as a move by the Democrats; and he was right. There are documents and evidence to prove his claims.

ISIS and Blackwater, creatures of the savage West

You’ve witnessed how bad, oppressive, and savage DAESH was. The US government is even worse than them. The US government is the same machine which created the likes of DAESH – not just DAESH itself. It facilitated the tasks for them. It acted as the cause. This is not just our claim, rather they themselves have acknowledged this. The one who is the US President, presently, used to constantly highlight the fact, in his electoral campaign, that the creation of DAESH was a measure adopted by the Democrats -- the opposite party to his own. He would repeat this over and over again, and he was right. Evidence and proof for this claim did exist. In the present time, too, there is such evidence. It was they who created DAESH. It was they who strengthened it. It was they who offered DAESH their weapons, and their financial support and the like. Most probably, it was they who trained them to use certain methods. Those savage U.S. organizations which are dependent on the US administration – such as the former Blackwater [it changed its name again] – are carrying out these tasks. They know these methods to perfection. They are experts at carrying out these savage acts against humanity. Most likely, it was they who have taught such methods to DAESH. Otherwise, how does a depraved individual from the Caucasus know how to torture an individual, how to drown people by torturing them, gradually, and how to burn them little by little? Likely, it was they [US mercenaries] who taught them these methods

If possible, we would provide Yemen with a 100 missiles instead of one

Sanctions on Haiti, Cuba and Iran: First nations to free themselves of arrogant powers

Washington reacted in a similar way to the 1959 Cuban Revolution, imposing a blockade that continues today. The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has met a similar fate for refusing to bow down to U.S. demands.  And yet, even with these precedents, the depth and breadth of U.S. hostility against the Islamic Republic of Iran stands out for its pathological intensity.

'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 Leader of the Revolution narrates a memory, from the days of preparation before Imam Khomeini's return to Iran:

'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.
