The Islamic Republic's position against the domination system in the view of the leadership is the discourse of the Islamic system, shouting and exposing against oppression and domination, rejecting the domineering system and destroying domination, producing knowledge and strengthening faith, maintaining anti-American slogans and constant struggle. In his view, the struggle against arrogance and the system of domination is not unstoppable and is even one of the basic tasks and foundations of the revolution.
