The biggest harm that the enemies can inflict on a country is to harm its security, what they are doing in some countries of the region is to deprive the people of security, said Ayatollah Khamenei in the ceremony of graduation and oath-taking of cadets at Khatam al-Anbia Air Defense Academy on Wednesday.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that more than everyone, the US and some Western intelligence services, are stirring up disorder, with the money from some reactionary regional countries, which is the worst detriment and the most dangerous hostility to a nation.
The Leader said that their people have some righteous demands, but, they should know that their demands can be reached in the legal frameworks.
The Supreme Leader said when the legal structure of a country got disrupted, nothing can be done. When there is a vacuum of power in a country, no positive measures can be taken.
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces said that the enemies hatched plots against Iran as well.
"Thank God the enemies plots have been neutralized by timely presence of the people at the scene."
Urging the people, intellectual elite, and the officials to be alert to the enemies' attempts and try to disrupt their calculations, Ayatollah Khamenei said no one should trust the enemy and neglect its move even for a moment. No one should get too proud of victories and the military forces should be ready to fight their sedition.
The Supreme Leader said that absence of security blocks the way for economic, scientific, intellectual, and research activities, so that safeguarding security is an invaluable duty and should be highly-appreciated.
Talking about the difference between the armies of Iran and the enemies, he said that the duty of the armies of the arrogant powers is to invade, occupy, and harm other countries, but the philosophy and the logic of the Army of Iran is to guard the country powerfully, and there is no room for invading others.
Referring to crimes committed by the armies of the UK, France, and the United States in the last 100 years in Indian peninsula, the East and West of Asia, and the North and Central Africa, the Supreme Leader said that the main problem with these armies is the fact that they are based on arrogant regimes, that's why Iran stresses that the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran should follow guidelines of Holy Quran and Islam.
The Supreme Leader appreciated services of all the Armed Forces of Iran, including the Army, Islamic Revolutions Guards Corps, the Basij (voluntary forces), and the Islamic Republic of Iran Police.
The Supreme Leader said that the Army have played major role in the past several years to support the Resistance, which will be announced later in proper time.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that one of the plans of the enemy is to change the calculation of the officials, intellectual elite, and public opinion so as they will not be able to determine their interests correctly.
Likening the enemies' attempt to penetrating a malware into the computer system, the Leader said that sometimes a nation is not affected by it and bravely fights for its interests.
The Supreme Leader said that a nation needs an "insight" to identify plots of the enemy, adding that without insight, it is unlikely to recognize the interests, the path to them and the path of the people who have to bear the burden.
The Supreme Leader said that no one should think little of the enemy; the enemy should be countered proportionate to the level it is.
Ayatollah Khamenei said that the occupying regime of Israel is suffered subsequent setbacks, citing the Great March of Return, adding that the current movement will hopefully lead to the return of Palestinians to their own country.
