In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
A Revolution that has sprung up from beliefs and faith
I thank him «2» and his government for coming here to get first hand knowledge of the condition of the people of Iran and for lending support to our uprising. This uprising in Iran is an uprising based on beliefs; based on faith; based on Islam and it has progressed by the power of faith and Islam. Otherwise, the people of Iran had no weapons in their hands to fight with, whereas the enemy was armed with various weapons and was backed by the super powers. Even though at the same time that the powerful forces were behind the Shah and were supporting him; the power of faith of our nation from which the unity of expression sprang up, and everyone's wanting the same objective prevailed, and the superpowers could not sustain the evil power. Moreover, because this movement was humane and was for humanity, all human beings that are endowed with humane qualities must support it.
Governments at the service of nations
In addition, the governments should note that they must be at the service of their nations and the nations must support the governments. Moreover, the reason why the former Shah was not able to sustain himself was that the nation was not behind him; the nation turned its back on him because he too had betrayed the nation. Governments must take note of the fact that they must be at the service of the people. If they are at the service of the people, the nations will support them.
Moreover, I pray to the Blessed and Almighty God for the happiness of all the nations of the world and all the oppressed people; and that all governments be at the service of the nations so that the happiness of all humankind is ensured. In addition, I pray to God for the happiness of all nations and your nation. Convey my greetings to your nation, the head of your government, «3» and the government.
