The secretary general of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement has praised the outstanding achievements made in Iran, stressing that the Islamic Republic is now top-ranked in many fields both in the Middle East region and the world four decades after the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIran was under the significant influence of the United States during the [ousted monarchical]\u00a0Pahlavi regime, and was Israel\u2019s closest ally as well,\u201d Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said as he addressed his supporters via a televised speech\u00a0broadcast live from the Lebanese capital Beirut on\u00a0Wednesday evening.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was the case until a courageous man (late founder of the Islamic Republic\u00a0Imam Khomeini)\u00a0came out of Qom after years and years of observation, and stood against the Pahlavi regime\u2019s dictatorship and its complete submission to the US,\u201d Nasrallah added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Hezbollah chief then underscored that late Imam Khomeini had no personal benefits in leading the revolution, and merely sacrificed his life for the sake of Allah.<\/p>\n

PressTV-Iran begins celebrations marking 40th revolution anniv.<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Iranian people have started 10-day celebrations marking the 40th anniversary of the country\u2019s 1979 Islamic Revolution.<\/a><\/div>\n

Nasrallah went on to say that the late founder of the Islamic Republic\u00a0and anyone who supported his struggle suffered oppression and imprisonment at the hands of the Pahlavi regime, describing Iran\u2019s 1979 Islamic Revolution as one of the most influential events both at regional and international levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Pahlavi regime used to serve Americans\u2019 interests in the region. It was seeking to forge broader relations with the US and Israel. The regime presented the worst form of dictatorship in the Middle East,\u201d the Hezbollah secretary general pointed out.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe divine nature and essence of the 1979 Islamic Revolution distinguishes from other uprisings [in the world]. Late Imam Khomeini led the revolution against the poverty created by the Pahlavi regime. People from all strata of the society participated in it as it was an uprising of the oppressed against injustice,\u201d Nasrallah said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He highlighted that Iran achieved genuine independence after the Islamic Revolution, and is now one of the few regional countries that makes independent decisions.<\/p>\n

The Hezbollah leader said Iran has made great achievements under the rule of \u00a0the Islamic\u00a0Jurisprudence, and is now leading in the region concerning the number of university students, international researchers and scholars, share of\u00a0science production besides activities in the fields of\u00a0nanotechnology, space technology and sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cIran is currently ranked second in the world in terms of stem cell research. The Islamic republic now produces more than 97% of its medical drug needs. It produces over 95% of its required military hardware, and exports five billion dollars worth of munitions annually,\u201d Nasrallah highlighted.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
