In a recent address, Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, voiced his concerns about what he sees as the decline of the United States on the world stage. He emphasized the vital importance of vigilance among nations and their leaders, particularly in the face of significant global developments. Ayatollah Khamenei also pointed out what he described as the enemy's strategy to provoke crisis points within Iran, with the ultimate objectives of undermining national unity and weakening national security. Despite these challenges, he expressed unwavering confidence that Iran could effectively counter these threats as long as its people and leaders remained cautious, awake, and alert.
During the address, Ayatollah Khamenei underscored the need for increased attention from nations and leaders in an era marked by profound global transformations. He drew parallels with historical events, citing the British colonial rule in the 18th century over key areas of Asia, including the Indian subcontinent, and the subsequent Western dominance in much of West Asia following World War I. He contended that the neglect of nations and governments in these regions had led to prolonged suffering under colonial powers.
Ayatollah Khamenei characterized the contemporary world as being on the brink of significant change, noting the weakening of colonial powers and the ascent of new regional and global forces as key features of this transformation. He referenced Western sources to support his claim that American influence, including in the economic realm, had waned considerably. Moreover, he stated that the United States' capacity to instigate regime changes had significantly diminished.
In a related context, Ayatollah Khamenei referenced historical events, such as the 1953 coup in Iran, orchestrated with American involvement. He contrasted this with the present, highlighting the United States' inability to exert its influence in a similar fashion. He also cited the American failure in Syria and the recent withdrawal from Afghanistan as glaring examples of its diminishing global power. Similar trends, he claimed, were evident elsewhere, with uprisings against old colonial powers like France occurring in various African countries.
While acknowledging the weakening of America's global influence, Ayatollah Khamenei cautioned against underestimating the enemy's capacity for scheming and aggression. He stressed the importance of vigilance among both the Iranian people and their leaders, urging them to remain cautious and focused. He emphasized the need to understand the enemy's tactics, avoid inadvertently aiding the enemy through words or actions, and remain vigilant, as even the slightest lapse in attention could prove costly.
Ayatollah Khamenei also noted that America's plans were not limited to Iran alone, pointing out that the United States had designs for several countries in the region, including Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Afghanistan, and the Persian Gulf nations. He revealed intelligence information suggesting that the U.S. government had been actively fomenting crises in these countries, including Iran, by identifying and exploiting potential points of conflict.
Highlighting the enemy's perspective, Ayatollah Khamenei mentioned that they believed ethnic and religious differences, along with gender-related issues, were potential triggers for crises within Iran. He refuted comparisons between Iran and countries like Syria and Yemen, asserting that Iran could avoid such a fate as long as it remained vigilant, stayed on the right path, and did not inadvertently assist the enemy. He emphasized the need to understand the enemy's tactics fully and to avoid complacency, likening the potential threat to that of an armed adversary poised to strike.
