We saw how the martyrs are able to solve many problems. We saw how all the active, advanced military powers of the world joined forces to attack a country that had just undergone a revolution, and was dealing with the bitter legacy of the period of the tyrant rulers. In order to stop them, the martyrs stood against them and thwarted this all-out attack. These eight years of the Sacred Defense demonstrated the roles that our martyrs played in solving the problems.
