TEHRAN – Iranian officials marked the anniversary of the United States embassy (known inside Iran as the Den of Espionage) takeover with messages celebrating it as the commencement of the nation’s fight against Global Arrogance and Imperialism.

The chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) described November 3 as a "Yawm Allah" (Day of God), highlighting the brave actions of Muslim students who stormed the political stronghold of arrogance in the sacred territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran, effectively dismantling the last remnants of American colonial influence in the country.

Major General Hossein Salami emphasized, “This decisive action by the victorious students aligned with Ayatollah Khomeini represented the conclusion of U.S. dominance over the significant nation of the Islamic Republic of Iran.”

Eskandar Momeni, the Iranian Minister of Interior, reflected on the embassy takeover as a testament to the bravery and self-confidence of Iranian students, asserting that this event symbolizes the youth who absorbed the principles of faith and freedom, revealing the true nature of the U.S. Imperialism oppressors through their sacrifices.

Momeni further noted that students throughout history have been at the forefront of hope, growth, and advancement. 

Following the brutal actions of the oppressive regime against students, Iran’s minister observed the resurgence of students who, inspired by Imam Khomeini's teachings, executed their historic movement to dismantle the American intelligence hub in Tehran.

The spokesperson of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the seizure of the espionage facility as a significant day in the struggle against Global Arrogance, highlighting the collective bravery of Iranians in their pursuit of a free and dignified existence, free from foreign interference and domination.

“The Iranian populace remains acutely aware of the extensive and troubling history of unlawful and destabilizing American interventions in their country. This includes the American-British coup on August 19, 1953, which dismantled the first democratically elected government in Iran and reinstated a dictatorial monarchy, as well as the unwavering American support for Saddam Hussein during the eight-year war imposed on Iran,” Iran’s spokesman pointed out.

Esmail Baqaei acknowledged that even after forty-five years since the capture of the espionage facility, the United States illegal and oppressive actions against the Iranian people persist to this day.

Also, the spokesman for the Guardian Council remarked on the recent capture of the Den of Espionage, emphasizing that following the Islamic Revolution of Iran and the establishment of the regime, hostilities became overt. 

Hadi Tahan Nazif articulated that the essence of the Islamic Revolution was a rebellion against Global Arrogance, asserting that the struggle against U.S. imperialism is a fundamental aspect of the revolution. 

He further claimed that discussions surrounding democracy and human rights are merely superficial and stated that, according to the Qur'an, the ultimate fate of arrogance is failure. 
the spokesman for the Guardian Council noted that those who reject the truth embody arrogance, with Iblis being the archetype of such arrogance. He emphasized that the Islamic message and the teachings of the prophets are fundamentally rooted in the battle against Global Arrogance and that the Islamic Republic, by dismantling the espionage network, has reaffirmed its commitment to the path of freedom.
