“The Islamic Republic’s stance against this aggression has been courageous, resolute, and prophetic,” Sheikh Isa Qassim said in a message on Sunday, after the Israeli regime launched attacks on Iran that have resulted in the martyrdom of Iranian military commanders, scientists and civilians, including many children.
Following are excerpts from his message:
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Greetings and peace be upon our master Muhammad (PBUH) and his pure, infallible family (AS).
The blatant aggression of the Israeli regime—a vile entity notorious for its belligerence and violation of all human rights and international norms—has been enabled by the staunch support of another arrogant power seeking global dominance. This same power falsely claims to steer the ship of humanity toward salvation, security, love, and peace!
The Islamic Republic’s stance against this aggression has been courageous, resolute, and prophetic. It is the stance of a faithful, courageous, and zealous leadership—for the sake of God’s religion, the Islamic Ummah, and all the oppressed of the earth. This position is shared by the majority of the people as well as the official institutions of the system, and it must be the stance of the entire nation.
Anyone who fails to condemn the savage aggression against the Islamic Republic—which is a fundamental pillar of this Ummah—and the targeting of it as one of the gravest assaults against the Ummah, its faith, and its honor, as well as an attack on human unity and the oppressed worldwide, is effectively supporting falsehood. Their silence equates to an endorsement of this aggression. Moreover, mere verbal condemnation by any state capable of supporting the evident truth embodied in this battle cannot be accepted by Islamic understanding, human conscience, or the public opinion of the nation.
The believers of these nations must not be hindered by anything they can resist, nor should anything prevent them from exerting every possible effort to uphold the just stance of the Islamic Republic in defending its existence and its people, or from contributing to the decisive defeat of the aggressors.

The position of international organizations—supporting the aggression, complicity in this crime, and encouragement of it—reveals a grotesque civilizational decay and deliberate collusion in a conspiracy to eradicate all values, including security and the very foundations of humanity.
The Islamic Republic, on the path of dignity, honor, and inevitable victory—God willing—and the defeat of corrupt tyranny on earth, stands firm under the leadership of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution.
May God forgive and accept the martyrs of this battle, the men of the blessed Islamic Republic, and its noble, faithful people. May He elevate their status and place them among the righteous prophets and imams.
