In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Of course, all things you said «2» were crimes committed. The Shah had committed more crimes in Iran than those committed there (Sahara). Here (in Iran) the weapons, tanks and cannons were used to kill the very same people whose money was used to purchase them! We are aware of all these crimes and the things you have mentioned were also crimes committed by the Shah's government. Presently his government is not at the helm any longer. And, if there had been some degree of involvement previously, it had been perpetrated by the Shah. We know all about these crimes and you are aware that more crimes had been committed in Iran than in other places,(e.g. in the Sahara). However, now, thanks to God, his hand has been severed off and the nation emerged victorious. Our nations now are facing many tribulations, and we commiserate with all the world's oppressed nations in their sufferings and we condemn all the arrogant powers. If we had power, we would destroy all oppressors. I hope that Iran's Islamic movement will serve as a paragon for all the oppressed nations to win their cause. I also hope that this key which opened doors to victory in Iran, which consisted of the nation's unity of expression and reliance on the Exalted and Blessed God, be also found among all nations, who will also eventually emerge victorious, God willing.
[In response to other statements made by the Polisario representative, Imam said:]
Tell them (addressing the translator) that I thank them for coming over here to find out about our nation's well-being. I always pray for not only all Muslims but also all the oppressed people as well. I hope that wherever you are, your nation will be in welfare and those who are oppressing people be destroyed. I pray that God grant His approval on you and I implore God to grant you victory.
[In response to the requests made by the above-mentioned organization for Iran to recognize it, the Imam said:] «3»
Well, this issue is something that is relevant to the government.
