In a speech, Hossein Taib, head of the Basij organization of the Revolutionary Guards, said: "The American way of life was supposed to spread throughout the world by 2025, but today, even within America, this way of life faced a challenge, and American students, university professors and artists rose up." Taib added: "The Americans said they would replace the government in the Islamic Republic, but today the American people are tired of the war and they say our statesmen took our money, equipment and soldiers and took them to distant areas to fight."
