Millions Ready to Sacrifice Lives for Khamenei, Claims Sheikh Isa Qassim
He asserted that millions of Iranians remain ready to sacrifice their lives at a single command from Khamenei, according to a report by international news outlet Press TV on Wednesday.
Sheikh Isa Qassim remarked that Ayatollah Khamenei stands apart from contemporary leaders due to his profound religious wisdom, spiritual stature, and strategic political foresight. He emphasized that Khamenei’s leadership is viewed by countless men and women in Iran not merely as a political mandate but as a sacred religious obligation. The cleric further noted that Muslims across the globe support Khamenei’s ideology and stand by his efforts to establish global peace and human brotherhood.
Referring to recent unrest in Iran, Sheikh Qassim highlighted the massive nationwide pro-government demonstrations held on January 13. He claimed that the presence of millions of citizens on the streets to protest against rioting was a clear testament to the public's unwavering support for Khamenei against foreign-backed sabotage. During his address, he also sharply criticized US President Donald Trump, stating that no one in the international community believes Trump’s claims of supporting "reforms" in Iran.
Political analysts suggest that such strong endorsements from an influential Bahraini leader underscore Iran's enduring spiritual and political influence within the Middle East's complex geopolitical landscape.
