read uh the letter of the supreme leader of the islamic republic of iran, the letter he wrote to the youth of europe and north america. it was very poetically worded and it made me think many things and it made me want to learn more about the islamic republic of iran and and learn more about your country, your revolution, your beliefs and and what the truth really is, because the letter pointed out that we really shouldn't trust us media, so uh, it was, it was, it was important to me to come to the islamic republic of iran.

classics from the us, so i saw they had a lot of iranian literature, but they also have some literature from the us. this is uncle tom's cabin, novel about the struggle to abolish slavery. it was very famous, played a very important role in us history. now, it's interesting, they tell us in the us, i've heard so many times in the us that in iran uh, reading the writings of carl marx is illegal, but when i walked into the store, i see them, not only are they not illegal, but they're very, very accessible, here they've got uh, mark's... "there are a lot of iranian

young people who are very, very interested in ideas, philosophy, and uh, this this is something we don't, we're not told in the us, and the us, they tell us for example that music is illegal in iran, well it's not illegal to listen to music in iran, there's music everywhere. we're here in a very, very of sacred place, this is ak'. celebrations going on, they haven't actually started yet, celebrations for imam, he's the 12th imam in shia islam, and he has has left, but it is believed that he will return at the end of time along with jesus christ.

معظم انقلاب خیلی ساده و خیلی هوشمنددانه است اگر حرف از رو صداقت باشه اصلاً توضیح ندارم اگر هفت دروغ باشه هی باید یه دروغ دیگه بگیم بذاریم اونو جبرانش بکنیم این مقدمه را عرض کردم که بگم من در مورد نامه رهبر معذب به انقلاب هیچ چیزی نمیگم فقط میگم حرف ایشون گوش کنین برین یک بار قرآنو همینطوری بخونیم. جوونای اروپا و امریکای شمالی بالاخره آدمایی هستن که تحصیل کردن کاری نداره به عنوان وقت گذرانی بخونن ضرر نمیکنه فکر کنی یه فیلم داری نگاه میکنی از معجزه قرآن اینه که حتماً جذب خواهید شد من خواهش میکنم یه بار برم بخونن خیلی خوش آمدین. and i thank you, you're

welcome, he's he's known as kind of very skilled singer, he he does this kind of spiritual singing that they do here in iran, it was a brief and... interaction i had with him, but it was very, very good interaction, and i felt very welcomed uh, as somebody from the united states, as someone who's not a muslim to be taken taken into this to this holy, holy place, this shrine, to be taken there, um, and taken all the way upstairs into the back back room, where only the performers are, to be sat a couch, given tea and and chocolate candies sitting there and to speak with this man was such... a prominent figure, such such a well-known spiritual musician to be able to just sit there and just have a chat with him, he then invited me, even though i'm a christian and not a muslim to join the ceremony that we

have and of course امام زمان منجی بشره نجات دهنده مسلمونا فقط.

it was just something special, something that you can't find anywhere else in the world, and if i try to explain it, if i try to you, scientifically analyze it,

this room was full of passion uh and and so much so much love and so much spirituality in that room so much emotion uh it was like nothing i've ever seen before anywhere you now even though i had a translator and so i couldn't hear word for word what he was saying i could emotionally understand what he was saying they weren't looking at each other they weren't looking at each other it was like it was it was a spiritual experience, being in that room was a spiritual experience. i know after heard one song uh, my guide uh said to me, he said do you want to go? i said, no, i want to stay, i want to see this, it was like nothing i'd ever felt, there was an energy in that room of all these men, here in iran, full of energy, you know, having a relationship with god through music,

it's a kind of um spiritual religious music that is about so much more than than just the sound. i have that much love, that much emotion, i could definitely see myself doing that, and there are other times in my life where i felt

this way, full of passion, you know, it's just, it's very deep. when i get back, i'm going to read the quran, ever, all of it, every page, i need to, i need to learn about... islam, i need to understand islam. i also want to read the hadith so that i understand about the imams, and their history. here we are in a very sacred place where so... many people who gave their lives in support of the islamic revolution are buried, these men are shaheed or marters, people gave

their lives in support of the islamic revolution, you can look at at all these faces here, and most of these men are people who signed up, they were people who signed up in the military to defend his iran's revolution during the iraq iran war, fought and died to protect the revolution that imam komeni led, but then you come over to these two, these... two men, these weren't soldiers, these weren't people who were engaged in any kind of armed fighting, these two men were simply doing what many people do all over the world and doing scientific research, these were scientific researchers, these were people involved in science related to iran's peaceful nuclear energy program, they were trying to help develop iran's peaceful nuclear energy program, doing scientific research and investigation, and for that they were killed by the israeliver. in collaboration with terrorists, they killed these two men, we're doing nothing but trying

to develop peaceful nuclear energy, build up their country, engaging in peaceful scientific research. these men were killed, murdered in their own country, simply for trying to engage in scientific research. "no, no, wait, i'm so emotionally involved

that i forgot to define the principle. the film is still not over. let us return once more to the holy shrine. we're here in a very, very sacred place. this is imam zodi ali akbar. um, and there are celebrations going on, they haven't actually started yet, celebrations for imam makti after the ceremony. had a good chance to talk with some the participants in this ceremony, with what was left of my trip, i still could not meet with the author of the letter. i want to introduce myself first of all, my name is caleb and i'm from the united states and i read the letter of the supreme leader uh to the youth of europe and north america and i've come to iran to learn more about the supreme leader and the revolution, and if i wanted to meet the supreme leader uh, kaminee, how how would i do that? دفتر بیت بگن حتماً ملاقات براشون. iran's supreme

leader, but meet him rather in a public ceremony. he suggested that the nearest one was the public ceremony on the anniversary of imam komaini. i decided to take part in that ceremony. i set up detailed email to the office of the supreme leader. i know that the time for coordination for the public and private is too short. so at least i could have been allowed foreign guests. there's still three days left until the meeting and it was a good opportunity for to me to complete my trip to iran. امریکا واقعاً.

so i have to go out and get what they call and i've done this actually, i'm a reporter, vox pops sometimes where you have to ask people their opinion, lot of people have no idea, have don't care about politics, don't care about world events. have no idea what's going on, but the iranians, so many people had answer, everyone anxious to give me their opinion, well i'll let me tell you what i think, well let me tell you what i think, i'll tell you what i think, i, and there was a diff

does around the world and i know they're not chanting against me, they're not chanting against my family or the people live in my community, they're chanting against the government of the united states and what it does around the world, which is mass murder. زمان گذشته دیگه. بعد حرف های ما رو گوش کنید شما قبول نکنید از خلیج و فارسم. بیرونتون میکنیم. نظر خود من من جند.

in my heart and all that do, oh we shall overcome, some we walk hand in hand, we walk hand in,

wann, wenn nicht jetzt ist es an der zeit, eine rote linie zu ziehen, verdammt noch mal.
