Head of Lebanese Hezbollah Political Council said that the late Founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini introduced Islam to global equations turning it into a superpower.

The official added that the late Imam pursued two objectives by his Islamic Revolution one was to introduce true image of Islam, bring back dignity, kindness, peace and freedom.

The Islamic Revolution was not an Iranian revolution only, but it was also a revolution for all humans. the late Imam managed to discover the Islamic nations’ potential courage, capability and preparedness and tell them that they can also achieve independence, dignity and freedom like the Iranian nation, Al-Seyyed said.
