TEHRAN Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei here Monday lauded high status of Majlis and said people serve as determining factors and deep roots of the Islamic system.

Ayatollah Khamenei told Majlis Speaker Mahdi Karrubi and MPs on the anniversary of the Majlis establishment that Majlis is symbol of public presence at the scene of the revolution.

The Leader thanked Majlis for organizing the Second International Conference on Palestinian Intifada, that was held here on April 24-25, and said it was an 'influential and lasting' move in the history of Majlis, the Islamic Republic and Palestine.

The Leader regretted the May 17 plane crash incident that left 30 people dead, including former transport minister the late Rahman Dadman and 7 MPs, and said the incident should serve as a lesson and remind one of the issue that man is subject to the fact of death.

The Leader said the main duty of Majlis is making laws adding that Majlis, through passing laws, sets and paves the ground for the government to act on the basis of the general policies and goals of the Islamic establishment.

The Leader said that besides legislation and preparation of the ground for government's activity, MPs have the duty to give vote of confidence to ministers and all these show the high status of Majlis and the grave responsibility of MPs.

Ayatollah Khamenei referred to firm determination, strong faith, clear knowledge about social and global realities and constant care as necessary conditions that MPs and officials of the Islamic establishment should observe.

The Leader stressed that officials should always be careful of themselves, their families, relatives and the people who have political and cultural influence on them.

The Leader added those serving various responsibilities at Majlis should always try to improve the cultural, social and administrative structures, observing real interests of the public, fighting poverty, corruption and discrimination, bridging the gap between the poor and the rich in society, bringing the public closer to the Islamic and religious values, ensuring psychological tranquillity of the public and preventing institutionalization of tension in society.

The Leader cautioned against extensive well-calculated and complicated plots of the enemies of the Islamic Republic so as to portray the Islamic system as inefficient. The Leader added that the enemy tries to portray the Islamic system as inefficient in the minds of the public, especially the youth, and present a pessimistic outlook of the future by preventing economic problems get tackled and by launching a publicity campaign against beliefs of the public in Islam, jihad, principle of revolution, (the late) Imam (Khomeini), the Constitution and all sanctities, by depriving the information and Judiciary systems from the chance to make any measure and by creating an tumultuous political atmosphere.

Ayatollah Khamenei said all people and officials should confront the enemy plots and MPs too should use their position as an MP and face the plot and move in an opposite direction.

The Leader called as 'unrealistic' the customary factional linings in society and dwelt on four real currencies in the present political scene of the country. The first current, which dominates wings and groups, believes in the Islamic Revolution and system, values and independence of the country, said the Leader, adding that the second current is the current which is hostile to the revolution and is for removal of the Islamic system.

There is however another current that supports the current that is opposite to and tries to topple the Islamic system, clarified the Leader.

The fourth current is the one that does not oppose the Islamic system but often serves unwillingly and ignorantly the current that opposes the system.

The Leader stressed the need to logically confront those who ignorantly serve the hostile current. One should behave these people in such a way to remove their ignorance, added the paramount Leader.

All officials are in the current that believes in the Islamic system and they should be watchful of the hostile current, added the Leader.

Touching on the grave responsibility of MPs at present juncture, the Leader described prospect of the country as bright and promising despite all pressures and conspiracies.

The Leader said that all should in light of their endeavors and faith and reliance on god, as well as unity, solidarity and chastity use the exceptional opportunity available by the Islamic Revolution and host banner of the Islamic values and compensate for cases of backwardness in the past.
