In the name of the author
“Freedom and truth are behind the path that people of thought and pen, guides, missionaries and heralds walk, and what better way than this blessed path to find the excellence of man and society.”
On Mordad 17, Journalist’s Day, as one of the most important days of the year that reminds us of thought and the urgent need of society for it, I congratulate and congratulate the members of the media, especially journalists who have always walked on the path of truth.
Critical thinking, as one of the pillars of a developed society, paves the way for health and progress. Therefore, it can be acknowledged that journalists are seekers of truth, excellence and the constant echo of the quest for truth in society.
In a time when the evil hope of our enemies of dear Iran is focused on blowing despair in the country, journalists are the first line of defense against these ill-wishers, in a way that during the imposed 12-day war, the national eyes and ears were in the demarcation with the cunning enemy and raised the flag of unity, and this unity was the secret of our victory. In this time, your words made the borders and walls of Iran (more precious than our lives) more vivid and was our powerful defensive shield against the enemy of the time.
I honor this blessed day, which is immortalized in our calendar with the memory of dear martyr Saremi as a high-ranking journalist, and I appreciate and thank each and every activist in this field and I ask God Almighty for his eternal dignity, honesty of speech and courage for them.
