Morals in US are on such a decline that people can't walk down streets without guns: Ayatollah Khamenei

No where in the world sees as much violence against women and beating of women to death as in the US. Today, no where in the world sees as many crimes against children- whether in the form of assassination or sexual crimes- as the United States.

Homicide and increased use of weapons have become a serious problem in the United States, which can be solved by banning the use of weapons by the people, but because of the armament manufacturers mafia domination in the United States, the ruling board of this country do not dare to ban the use of weapons.

They say: 'We are the leaders of the world!' "This claim is worse than their previous claims, that a number of bullies who do not have the slightest amount of the most primitive principles of human morality, claiming that they are the leaders of several billion people is, in my opinion, the worst offense than any previous insult to humanity.

The American government believe they are leaders of humanity! Now in the streets of New York and Washington, and other regions, ordinary people cannot walk in the streets without guns during the night! Their safety is as such. Today, in that spiritually-ill country, children in their homes do not have sexual security from their stepfathers! Their ethics are as such. Today, no where in the world sees as much violence against women and beating of women to death as in the US. Today, no where in the world sees as many crimes against children- whether in the form of assassination or sexual crimes- as the United States. Twelve, thirteen-year old teenagers carry guns, smoke and drink alcohol in the streets of the United States! Then they claim that they want to lead the world! It's embarrassing!

There is the word of democracy, but there is no practice of democracy. There have been scientific advances in the West, but these scientific advances were used as a means to exploit other nations. As soon as they achieved scientific power, the West turned it into political and economic power, and started expedition toward the east and the west of the world. Wherever there was a country they could exploit, they did not hesitate. Wherever they didn’t exploit, it was because they couldn’t! In the West, there was freedom, but freedom with oppression and immorality. The press are free in the West and they write whatever they want, but to whom belong the newspapers in the West? Do they belong to the people ?! This is a clear matter; go see for yourselves. You cannot find a noticeable newspaper in Europe or the US that does not belong to the capitalists! So freedom of the press means freedom of the capitalists, so they can say what they want, destroy the reputation of anyone they want; make anyone they want famous; lead the public opinion to where they desire! This is not freedom. If someone rises and talks against Zionism--like that French philosopher (Roger Garaudy) who wrote books against the Zionists saying that it was not true that the Jews were burned in the cremation furnaces--they treat him differently! If someone is not affiliated with the capitalists and is not at the center of the capitalist power, his word will not be expressed, or heard, nor will he have freedom of speech! Yes, the capitalists are free to say whatever they want via their newspapers, their radios and TVs! This freedom is not a value; it is against values. They lead people to immorality and faithlessness; make wars wherever they want; make imposed peace wherever they want; they sell armaments wherever they want. Freedom is this!?
