Referring to the revelation of the West's claims about human rights, the Leader said, "The Westerners, who are making a fuss about the execution of a criminal, have turned a blind eye to the killing of 30,000 innocent people in Gaza, and the United States has brazenly vetoed the resolution to stop bombing Gaza for the umpteenth time."
Ayatollah Khamenei made the remarks in a meeting with the organizers of the congress of 24,000 Khuzestan martyrs on Saturday morning.
This is the true face of Western culture and civilization and their liberal democracy, whose politicians are smiling on the outside, but on the inside, they are a rabid dog and a bloodthirsty wolf, he added, referring to the Westerners' hypocritical behavior and double standards.
Touching upon the ongoing Israeli war in Gaza, the Leader stressed that the steadfastness of the Resistance forces and the patience of the people of Gaza in the face of bombings shows strong religious faith.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Ayatollah Khamenei stressed that the most important problem of the enemies of the Islamic Republic is their lack of understanding about the people of Iran and their lack of knowledge about Islam.
The enemies of the Iranian nation, by their miscalculation, thought that the Islamic Republic would not become 40 years old, but the progress of Iran did not stop and it will continue with the grace of God and relying on the people's will and their religious faith, he concluded.
