In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Excellency Mu`ammar Qadhdhafi, President of the Republic of Libya,
Your telegram to congratulating on the anniversary of the Islamic Republic of Iran was received. Your affections expressed therein towards me and the noble in-campaign nation of Iran is very much appreciated. I hope that the Islamic Revolution of our great nation and their glorious victory over the enemies of Islam become a beacon for all the victimized nations under dominance. Further, they may get rid of their vicious and malefic domination; in particular America, the big enemy, and cut short their influence and regain the lost glory under the sacred teachings of Islam.
