🇮🇷 Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei made a passionate appeal for national unity this week, urging citizens to 'disappoint the enemy' during Wednesday's 47th anniversary celebrations of the 1979 Islamic Revolution. With U.S.-Iran tensions simmering, his televised speech emphasized resilience over military might: 'National power lies in determination, not just missiles.' 💥
The annual February 11 rallies—a cornerstone of Iran's revolutionary identity—come amid heightened friction with Washington. Recent U.S. military deployments in the Middle East and stalled nuclear talks in Oman have kept diplomats on edge. Khamenei framed the anniversary as a chance to force global powers to 'show modesty' toward Iran.
'Until the enemy is disappointed, a nation is exposed to persecution,'
Khamenei declared, framing the revolution's legacy as a shield against foreign interference. 🔥
This year's events revive memories of the revolution that toppled the U.S.-backed Shah, transforming Iran into an Islamic republic. While indirect negotiations continue, 2026 finds both nations still locked in a diplomatic stalemate—their ties severed since the 1980 embassy crisis.
As crowds prepare to flood Iranian streets, the world watches: Will this anniversary mark a turning point or deepen the divide? 🌍✨
