The Leader of the Islamic Revolution has said the United States and Israel are enemies of the entire Muslim world, not of Iran alone, and called on Islamic countries to close ranks.
In a message marking Unity Week, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei described the American and Israeli governments as “sworn enemies” of Muslims as a whole, according to Iranian media.
He urged leaders across the Islamic world, and in West Asia and the Persian Gulf in particular, to identify what he called their “real enemy” and to work against its strategies in the region.
Unity among Muslim nations was essential to resolving the region’s problems, he said, arguing that outside powers deliberately exploit racial, cultural, social, economic, political and geographical differences in order to divide Muslim countries and weaken their collective strength.
The message comes six months into the war between Iran and the United States, which began on February 28, and amid a US naval blockade of Iranian ports that has left Tehran struggling to import fuel.
