Until double-standards dominate western policies, until terrorism- in the view of its powerful supporters- is divided into “good” and “bad” types, and until governmental interests are given precedence over human values and ethics, the roots of violence should not be searched for in other places. ~Ayatollah Khamenei, 29/11/2015 #LETTER4U

Be a messenger. The second letter from the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, with the subject being CommonWorry , has been published for the youth in the West. Play your part by making use of Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms to spread this letter around. #LETTER4U

According to reports received, some countries in Europe have issued guidelines encouraging citizens to spy on Muslims.  This behavior is unjust and we all know that pursuing injustice has the characteristic of unwanted reversibility. ~Ayatollah Khamenei, 29/11/2015 #LETTER4U

The pain of any human being anywhere in the world causes sorrow for a fellow human being.The sight of a child losing his life in the presence of his loved ones, a mother whose joy for her family turns into mourning etc, these are scenes that rouse the emotions and feelings of any human being. #LETTER4U Anyone who has benefited from affection and humanity is affected and disturbed by witnessing these scenes- whether it occurs in France or in Palestine or Iraq or Lebanon or Syria. 

Without a doubt, the one-and-a-half billion Muslims also have these feelings and abhor and are revolted by the perpetrators and those responsible for these calamities...if today’s pain is not used to build a better and safer future, then it will just turn into bitter... #LETTER4U

I genuinely believe that it is only you the youth who by learning the lessons of today’s hardship, have the power to discover new means for building the future and who can be barriers in the misguided path that has brought the west to its current impasse. #LETTER4U

...Today terrorism is our common worry...the insecurity and strain that you experienced during the recent events, differ from the pain that the people of Iraq, Yemen,etc have been experiencing for many years... #LETTER4U ...The Islamic world has been the victim of terror and brutality to a larger extent territorially... unfortunately this violence has been supported by certain great powers through various methods and effective means. 

Today, there are very few people who are uninformed about the role of the United States of America in creating, nurturing and arming al-Qaeda, the Taliban and their inauspicious successors.  #LETTER4U The prejudiced response of the west to the awakening movement in the Islamic world is an illustrative example of the contradictory western policies.

Anyone who has benefited from affection and humanity is affected and disturbed by witnessing these scenes- whether it occurs in France or in Palestine or Iraq or Lebanon or Syria.  #LETTER4U

I genuinely believe that it is only you the youth who by learning the lessons of today’s hardship can be barriers in the misguided path that has brought the west to its current impasse.   #LETTER4U

The other side of these contradictory policies is seen in supporting the state terrorism of Israel.  The oppressed people of Palestine have experienced the worst kind of terrorism for the last sixty years.  #LETTER4U

  If the people of Europe have now taken refuge in their homes for a few days and refrain from being present in busy places- it is decades that a Palestinian family is not secure even in its own home from the Zionist regime’s death and destruction machinery. #LETTER4U
