Press TV- Leader�of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says the annual Hajj pilgrimage provides the best opportunity to thwart the propaganda campaign against the Islamic Republic.

Speaking during a meeting with Iranian officials in charge of the 2017 Hajj in Tehran on Tuesday, Ayatollah Khamenei said that there was a very dangerous, active, and well-equipped anti-Iran front.
�The Islamic establishment has enough capacity and capability to stand against and counter this front, and the Hajj opportunity is the best advertisement platform to establish contact with the world�s people and neutralize the other side�s propaganda,� the Leader said.
Ayatollah Khamenei touched on the Riyadh regime�s initiatives to cancel or undermine Iranian ceremonies on the sidelines of the Hajj and said, �Today, in the Muslim world, there are numerous intellectuals who want to hear the truth from the Islamic Republic.�

Thus, he said, those in charge of the Hajj should speak to the audience, with �an effective literature, good tone, and deep reasoning,� about such important issues as �fighting arrogance, exposing the nature of the West, and distancing oneself away from the enemies of Islam.�

With the extent of negative propaganda against Iran, the existence of ambiguities in the minds of ordinary people is �natural,� Ayatollah Khamenei noted, adding, however, that authorities had to remove those ambiguities by establishing contact with people.
