The Leader of the Islamic Republic, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, has called Gaza the beating pulse of Muslim world.

Ayatollah Khamenei said the people in Gaza are not only standing against the Zionist regime of Israel but are also resisting the US, world tyrants and arrogant powers, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).
 
The Leader made the remarks in a meeting with thousands of the people and eulogists held on the birth anniversary of Hazrat Fatemeh Zahra (AS), daughter of Prophet Mohammad (PPBUH).
 
Ayatollah Khamenei said,” When the US President Joe Biden publicly announces being a Zionist, then it means he bears the same evilness and heinous objectives of the Zionists.”
 
The Leader called the hard power as temporary and referred to the shameful withdrawal of the US forces from Afghanistan, the abhorrence of the Iraqi nation for the White House and said,” Even the power of US could not guarantee its presence in these two countries while the soft power of the Palestinians has set the minority group at the focal point of the global attention and that is because of the patience and resistance of the Palestinian people.”
 
Ayatollah Khamenei called the soft power as more efficient than hard power and said,” That is the reason why the US is investing more in its media, arts, literature and movie industry.”
 
The meeting of the religious eulogists and elegists with the Leader of Islamic Republic was held on Wednesday morning in Imam Khomeini Husseiniya in the capital Tehran.
