In a dramatic and provocative letter, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addressed American university students on Thursday, commending their "defense of the Palestinian people" amidst a surge of pro-Palestinian protests on U.S. campuses. His message, "Do not oppress and do not be oppressed," came at a time of heightened tensions and safety concerns for Jewish students.
Khamenei's letter, released during a wave of campus protests demanding a ceasefire in Gaza and divestment from companies with ties to Israel, criticised the U.S. government's support for Israel. He framed the students' activism as part of a larger "Resistance Front" against Zionist oppression, calling Israel's treatment of Palestinians a continuation of "decades of genocide and apartheid." He declared, "As the page of history is turning, you are standing on the right side of it."
