Hawzah News Agency- In a message marking the anniversary of the 1979 Revolution, al-Yasser said the occasion transcends national boundaries and carries lessons for the broader Muslim world and advocates of justice worldwide.
“February 11 is not an ordinary day, nor is it an event confined to one nation and then concluded,” she said. “It is a revealing moment that demonstrates how sovereign decisions are made and how any dissenting voice in this powerful global order is met with pressure. It is a world that imposes its conditions, and whoever refuses compliance is subjected to siege—not because of wrongdoing, but simply for declaring: ‘I do not wish to be subordinate.’”
Al-Yasser argued that the confrontation between the United States, Israel, and Iran is not solely geopolitical but ideological in nature. “Washington and Tel Aviv are not merely in conflict with Iran as a state; they are confronting an idea—an idea that has unsettled them: that a Muslim country can preserve its identity and say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ without seeking permission,” she stated.
According to the Iraqi commentator, this is why February 11 has evolved into a broader symbol of resilience. She pointed to what she described as Iran’s endurance under economic sanctions, political pressure, and security threats as evidence of sustained national resolve.
“It is the steadfastness of daily life under pressure, the resilience of an economy under sanctions, and the firmness of decision-making under constant threats,” she said. “The lesson presented by the Iranian nation is not abstract rhetoric. It is a lived experience offered to the Islamic Ummah and to free people around the world.”
Al-Yasser further maintained that Islamic identity, in her view, cannot be preserved through silent conformity or retreat. “Identity is not safeguarded through blind integration, nor protected through silence, nor defined by withdrawal,” she said, emphasizing that dignity and sovereignty require perseverance and readiness to bear costs.
Concluding her remarks, she described the Islamic Revolution as a movement that “restored a sense of dignity to human beings” in a world she characterized as dominated by power politics and disinformation.
Her comments reflect a broader discourse across parts of the region that views the anniversary of the Islamic Revolution not only as a national commemoration, but as a symbol of resistance and self-determination in contemporary international affairs.
