Khamnei: "We will stand firm till our last breathe"

Iran Press News: Translation by Banafsheh Zand-Bonazzi

Khamnei in a pep-talk on the subject of the regime's nuclear dossier to Basiji forces, bragged: "We will stand firm till our last breathe and we will give our last drop of blood though we are certain that it will not take that. We must impel a showdown with the false foundations of all these satanic forces. The IAEA is an example of one of these [false foundations]. Who can confront these forces? An individual, a political party, an assembly...cannot. The thing that can stand up to these massive and pounding waves [of pressure] is a massive international collective; this ever augmenting international alliance is taking shape and it's axis is the rule of our regime."

Khamnei who identified the nuclear program as "science" and nuclear weapons as "military might,” continued: "We must obtain 'the might.' If the Islamic Iran can talk 'science' on the first-world level, it will all be doable from there, as 'science' will bring us wealth and power."
