break | Iran, the leader of the revolution and the Islamic Republic, Seyyed Mujtaba Khamenei, on the occasion of the "Day of the War on Arrogance": - The only way to achieve total deterrence is to continue the strategy of strengthening Iran through comprehensive progress. - The scenario in the Gulf, and especially in the Strait of Hormuz, exposed the lie of the myth of "invincible America". - The scenario in the Gulf and Hormuz revealed the weakness and humiliation of those governments that depend on powers that are not their own people. - The situation in the Strait of Hormuz proved the treachery and inability of the great powers to protect their regimes. - Iran's control of Hormuz and the elimination of US bases in the region are considered a preparatory jihad against imperialism on a regional scale. - The Iranian response will take on much larger dimensions in the event that the attacks are repeated.
