In a Friday, April 14, 2023 sermon in Arak, Iran, Khamenei’s representative in Markazi Province, Gholamali Dorri-Najafabadi, said that the Jews “love life” and fear death, and that in contrast, Iranian children “love martyrdom” and “will [inherit] the Kingdom of Heaven.”
He said that if you capture one Zionist, it is “as if you took the lives of all of them […] They would be willing to give up everything to free just one of them.”
He added that the Zionists do not care about “matters of faith” and that all they do care about is “lust, sex, other dirty activities, embezzlement, plundering, treason, and other things.”
In addition, Dorri-Najafbadi cited Hizbullah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah’s statement that Israel is “weaker than a spider web.” The sermon was aired on Aftab TV (Iran).
