In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I wish I were a revolutionary guard
You should thank God that these Islamic operations are being done by you. Not everybody can do it successfully. Today, after meeting with some revolutionary guards I wished I were a revolutionary guard. See what they do and what I do. They go to war against the enemy of Islam while I am here and I cannot do that. You should appreciate yourselves. God has bestowed on you this preparedness so that you cab preserve the glorious Qur'an and the dear Islam. The divine rule ha ordained you to be chosen to serve Islam, and this is recorded before God. God and the angles will support you, so be firm and steadfast. Every step you take for Islam is a divine step that God has caused you to take. If you think, you will fear neither killing nor getting killed. The main point is that your intention should be pure and, thank God, is so. The strong spirit of these twenty-year old youth astonishes one. Our intention today is to put this afflicted, Westernized monarchic country on the track of Islam once again and nothing else.
One of the things I want to remind you of is to maintain order completely. Bravery is different from recklessness; bravery in war is a heroic, well-planned and calculated move while recklessness is to rush into the enemy without calculation and order. Things should be done on the basis of order and rule. When something is done for God and is well-ordered, there will not be any fear, no matter who is killed or who kills. God willing, you will be supported by (God's soldier) and march ahead. Yesterday when I saw that Iraqis buried a number of women, I said to myself that no matter how much we shout to tell the world to look at what they do, it will be useless; because we are oppressed and we do not want to be under the domination of anyone, so we must bear the pressure. But since we work for God, there is no fear. Let them propagate against us as much as they want and let them project a wrong image of us as much as they can. Commander of the Faithful, `Ali (may God's peace be upon him) said," If the whole world turns its back to
me, I will not fear anything." So when something is done for God, there is no fear. Whoever works more for God will be insulted more; just like you the revolutionary guards who were insulted more than anyone else.
May God grant you success.
