The impact of the leadership letter of Brik university professor

Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei
Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran

Dear Supreme Leader;

Thank you for your second letter addressed to the youth of Western countries. The title of the letter “Today’s terrorism is our common concern”, shows that your wise and intelligent commentary is not limited to any particular age; Because the universal nature of the truths you convey is age-unlimited.

The concepts that you communicated are beyond generational boundaries and even these concepts are beyond religious, national, ethnic and ideological boundaries. It is clear to me that you are dealing with all of humanity in a situation where the world is on the brink of world war.

In this monumental moment of crisis, when the forces of madness, discord and hateful engineered media are made to appear more prominent, you have created for us a blessed and peaceful haven. You have created an atmosphere full of intention for women, men and children, away from psychological, militaristic and economic storms. Thank you for providing security and a haven for moderation, logic, tolerance in the midst of the mental and physical chaos that some Western powers are deliberately instilling.

For me, the words of imperialism and colonialism are considered by your eyes in this way: “The Western world, using advanced tools, insists on simulating and assimilating the culture of the world, which includes the humiliation of independent cultures”.

Terrorism and colonialism in the West

The efforts of the western world to expand and strengthen the imperial border began after 1492 AD. It was in that year that Christopher Columbus began a process whose true nature was how North America should best respond to the large migrations of Muslim populations from the Middle East.

After 1492, the entire Western Hemisphere became a frontier zone for the resettlement of European immigrants, as well as a place for the forced and involuntary migration of black Africans as slaves. In the process the independent cultures of the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere—those incorrectly described by Columbus as “Indians”—were badly denigrated.

The colonization of the first world countries of the Western Hemisphere has expanded over the centuries until today. In many cases, theft, oppression and even genocides have been forgotten. In this terrible cycle of injustice, these so-called American Indians have been true witnesses to the violent extremes that Western imperialists are capable of. As is now evident from the violent uprooting of millions of people in the Levant, this destruction of ancient and independent cultures is especially intensified when the lust for ownership and control of new lands and resources is expressed in the language of religion.

The founding of the United States as a white immigrant society

The emergence of the United States as an immigrant society within the vast frontiers of Western imperialism has had far-reaching consequences for the entire world. These days, the emergence of a superpower that is heavily equipped with military weapons and is the strongest superpower known in the world has had many consequences, especially for the people of Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Lebanon. As you explained in your letter, the recent increase in violence in Paris should be seen in the immense pain and suffering, madness and murder that has victimized a large number of innocent Muslims, especially in the Middle East.

At the same time, the founding fathers of the United States in the famous 1776 declaration of the American Declaration of Independence invoke the language of human rights including racial provisions. Black slaves who toiled in the construction process of cotton and tobacco plantations in the English American colonies in the South were not included in the rights of citizenship in the new republic. Black American slaves were privately owned by slave owners for much of the following century.

Additionally, the American Declaration of Independence contains provisions that have had the effect of increasing racial discrimination against indigenous peoples, who have since been annexed and controlled by the United States. This feature of the Declaration of Independence helps explain the psychology of the so-called Global War on Terror, a massive military campaign and psychological warfare that can be said to have started on July 4, 1776, as much as it did on September 11, 2001.

In response to King George III of England’s attempt to annex Native American lands to North America through negotiation rather than conquest, Thomas Jefferson and other drafters of the 1776 Proclamation accused the English monarchy of: He has incited civil insurrections among us, and endeavored to exterminate the inhabitants of our frontiers, who have been cruel Indian savages, of all ages, sexes, and under all conditions.

Creating an enemy for permanent economic warfare

From its inception, America seems to have defined real and imagined enemies in ways to justify, define, and strengthen its imperialist expansion. The Indians, who were referred to in the Declaration of Independence as “brutal savage Indians”, have been the main enemy of the American war machine. The Indians were then replaced by Red Communists, whose real, perceived, or fictitious threat to America provided the necessary justification for creating a permanent American war economy.

The interests of the main winners of this system of encroachment and ownership domination and controlling more shares in banking networks, media and military institutions are currently for the complete dominance of the political economy in today’s competitive world. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in the late 1980s, America has needed a new enemy to justify its continued encroachment into the realm of human health, freedom, dignity, and cultural independence.

The crusade to expand the borders of the imperialist power of the West has led to the pollution of our psychological, spiritual and physical environment, as well as the pollution of renewable environmental cycles. With the events of September 11, 2001, the new enemy of Islamic terrorism appeared in the form of a red communist or, before that, ruthless savage Indians. After the Cold War, a new enemy was needed, and a new armed and financed enemy was created. The Global War on Terror brought the same top-down regime of elite oppression, the same structure used against the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere, and the permanent war economy of the Cold War.

The false flag of terrorism and Takfiri mercenary armies

Those best known for the expansionist plans of the Jewish state of Israel are the main architects of what is known as the Global War on Terror. The falsification of the events of September 11, 2001, and the false flag of counter-terrorism, became a tool to make the indigenous Arab, mostly Muslim, part of the land of “Greater Israel” and to describe them as the global enemies of the West.

Much of the concept of the West has been redesigned in a period of extensive psychological operations to trivialize the role of Islam. It is not at all true that the West arose exclusively from Judeo-Christian roots and that Islam emerged only through newly arrived immigrants. For example, we should not forget that the emergence of the Renaissance in Europe was strongly influenced by Islam and caused a lot of interaction between Jews, Christians and Muslims in the Caliphate of Andalusia in the present day Spain.

As documented by Edward Said and other researchers on the overlap between Islam and Christianity, pluralism within Islam has been manipulated over time to exploit and advance the interests of Western imperialism. After World War II, the United States inherited this legacy from Hitler’s Germany to exploit Islam as a bulwark against the Soviet Union’s atheistic domination of parts of South Eurasia.

The CIA’s role in the 1980s in creating, training, financing, and arming the Salafist proxy army to overthrow the Soviet Union is well known. One of the appendages of this CIA project in Afghanistan has been al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda, formed by the CIA, became a fake example of Islamic terrorism. Al Qaeda provided agents and forces to exploit for the false flag terrorism that led to the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Al-Qaeda and its successors, including Al-Nusra and ISIS, are best identified as takfiri mercenary armies to be used in the process of poisoning Western minds against Islam. These mercenaries have enough power. Those who participate in these operations are shown by the western media as independent entities that have exclusively religious prejudices. these people  And the institutions are often directly funded by Western intelligence agencies.

The real goal of the occupiers in the 9/11 wars was not to fight Islamic terrorism. The main goal of these wars has been to overthrow different governments and societies to destroy competitors and achieve monopoly power. Those who offer new interpretations of the global war on terror often point to the fact that they are fighting terrorism with high quality.

A new metropolis from an old empire

The disastrous result of this style of malevolent intervention is on full display in Libya. Who can doubt that Syria has become a frontier for adapting imperialism’s updated formula of domination by divide and conquer? Who can doubt that behind the deceptive facade of global counter-terrorism, oil politics, pipelines and Israel’s plan for global and regional expansion are hidden?

The global war on terror can be better described as the continuation of Western imperialism with Israel as a new metropolis of an old empire with roots dating back to the conquest of America in 1492. Continuation of this war program requires a steady stream of new terrorists, which is currently funded by ISIS, a proxy army whose financial sponsors include Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, and the United States. You, the supreme leader, have created a very decisive enlightenment in the current psychological environment, an environment that has become a tool to advance the strategies of ISIS.

To conclude, let me quote a part of your letter: “The obvious and well-known supporters of Takfiri terrorism, despite having the most backward political systems, have always been in the ranks of the allies of the West, while the most progressive and brightest ideas arising from dynamic democracies in the region have been brutally suppressed.”

Since my visit to Tehran last year, I have had the pleasure and honor of meeting with some of these pioneering, dynamic and intellectual democrats. Some of them have given you advice and suggestions over time. I am happy for the wealth of inspiration they have to offer you through God’s grace.

Your comments about the tendency of Western powers to unify backward political systems have had very important consequences in the contemporary era and are accompanied by many historical precedents. Unfortunately, a characteristic of imperialism is its tendency to dominate people by empowering puppet regimes to continue to dominate the region through remote control.

It is the young generation that can change these manipulated patterns and continue this path by receiving appropriate training from various reliable sources, including those who are at the forefront of the Islamic Revolution of Iran.
