Ayatollah Khamenei: Iran is strong, US unable to harm

If Iran were not powerful, one tenth of the attempts enemise are making would be enough to deprive Iranian people of their popular Islamic Establishment, said the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution on Saturday.

National authority is not splashing the nation’s money out on weapons; this is idiocy,’ said Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in a ceremony of cadets’ graduation.

Ayatollah Khamenei said this is not authority that a country from the other side of the world come here to establish bases to protect a family. ‘This is not authority; this is humiliation. Authority comes from people.’

‘The biggest proof for the authority of Iran is that Iran is progressing and the US has not been able to harm it whatsoever.’
