TAKE 1 OF 3 -- OUT-OF-TURN-EXCERPT: AL-QADHDHAFI SPEECH
LD282203
TRIPOLI DOMESTIC SERVICE IN ARABIC 1652 GMT 28 MAR 85
((EXCERPTS)) ((PASSAGE OMITTED)) THE IRANIAN PEOPLE RESPONDED
TO THE CALL AND STAGED THE REVOLUTION; WE CANNOT BETRAY THIS
REVOLUTION SINCE WE CALLED FOR WHATEVER HAPPENED. THESE PERSIANS
SAY WE ARE ARABS, BUT THIS IS A REVOLUTION. WE CANNOT BETRAY THE
REVOLUTION.
HOW CAN WE FIGHT THE REVOLUTION WHICH LIBERATED IRAN FROM
AMERICAN DOMINATION? IT IS A CRIME. THIS REVOLUTION HAS THROWN THE
ENTIRE WEIGHT OF THE IRANIAN PEOPLE ON THE SIDE OF THE PALESTINE
PEOPLE AND THE ARAB NATION AGAINST THE ISRAELIS AND AGAINST THE
RACISTS OF SOUTH AFRICA. IT TOPPLED ALL THE POLICIES OF THE
UNITED STATES AND THE SHAH IN THE REGION.
HOW CAN WE EIGHT SUCH A REVOLUTION? IF THE IRANIANS WERE TO
OCCUPY IRAQ, COLONIZE IT AND ANNEX IT, THEN THEY WOULD STOP BEING
A REVOLUTIONARIES AND BECOME COLONIZERS. THEN tJE WILL NO LONGER
SAY AN IRANIAN REVOLUTION BUT A PERSIAN COLONIZATION. ((APPLAUSE))
WE ARE ON THE SIDE OF IRAN BECAUSE IT IS A REVOLUTION. BUT WHEN
IT TURNS INTO A COLONIZATION WE WILL STAND AGAINST IT. THIS IS A
tJELL-KNOWN STAND AND WE REPEATEDLY TOLD THE IRANIANS: DO NOT BECOME
COLONIZERS, FOR THEN WE WILL FIGHT YOU AND CONSIDER YOU
IMPERIALISTS AND COLONIALISTS. WHEN YOU ARE REVOLUTIONARIES WE
WILL BE REVOLUTIONARIES ON YOUR SIDE. THIS IS A NATURAL ALLIANCE
AMONG REVOLUTIONARIES. ((APPLAUSE))
WE DOUBT THAT THE REVOLUTION WOULD TURN INTO IMPERIALISM OR
SECTARIANISM. IF IRAN TURNED INTO SECTARIANISM AND PLACED THE
SHIITES ABOVE THE SUNNIS -- IF THERE ARE STILL ANY OF THIS
HERITAGE -- AND IF IT OCCUPIED, COLONIZED AND MADE IRAQ SUBSERVIENT
TO IT, IT MEANS THAT THE REVOLUTION WHICH WE SUPPORTED ONCE AND
WHICH OCCURRED IN IRAN IS AT AN END. THEN IRAN IS NO LONGER
REVOLUTIONARY IRAN BUT A PERSIAN RACIST SECTARIAN AND COLONIZER
OF THE ARAB HOMELAND, AND WE WILL FIGHT THIS COLONIALISM.
HOWEVER, THE REVOLUTION WOULD NEVER DO THIS, UNLESS THE REVOLUTION
CEASES IN IRAN. IT IS ONLY A POSSIBILITY THAT THE REVOLUTION COULD
BE ABORTED. WAS THERE NOT A REVOLUTION IN EGYPT WHICH ENDED?
WAS NOT INDONESIA A COUNTRY OPPOSED TO IMPERIALISM AND THE
NONALIGNED? NOW IT IS SUBSERVIENT TO AMERICA. WAS NOT GUINEA
FIGHTING IMPERIALISM? IT IS NOW SUBSERVIENT TO THE ISRAELIS.
THE REVOLUTION IN IRAN COULD BE ABORTED AND END, AND IRAN BECOME
SECTARIAN, RACIST AND PERSIAN. THEN IT BECOMES COLONIALIST. OUR
ATTITUDE TOWARD COLONIALISM IS CLEAR. IT NEEDS NO ARGUMENT. THERE
IS NO NEED TO ASK US WHAT OUR POSITION WILL BE WHEN IRAN BECOMES
COLONIALIST. OURS IS A PRINCIPLED ATTITUDE.
ON THIS OCCASION, WHAT PAINS US IS THAT THE WAR HAS MOVED
TO THE CITIES. IN FACT, I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED THAT THE tdAR
CHANGED FROt4 BRAVERY TO C041ARDICE. BRAVE MEN FIGHT EACH OTHER
ON THE BATTLEFIELD. HOWEVER, TO RESORT TO CITIES, THIS IS A WAR
FOR COWARDS.
KHOMEYNI ((AS HEARD)) SENT ME A MESSAGE SAYING I AGREE THAT YOUR
ANALYSIS WAS CORRECT AND THAT THIS IS A WAR OF COWARDS AND THAT
WE ARE AGAINST STRIKING AT CITIES. I ONLY RESORTED TO STRIKING

CITIES BECAUSE IRAQ BEGAN TO STRIKE AT CITIES. IF IRAQ STOPS
STRIKING CITIES, I AM PREPARED TO DO THE SAME. THIS WAS IN
A WRITTEN MESSAGE.
THE IRAQI REPLY CAME. IT SAID I WILL NOT STOP STRIKING AT CITIES
UNTIL IRAN AGREES TO NEGOTIATE TO END THE WAR. THIS IS VERY
STRANGE. FOR THE FIRST TIME, STRIKING AT CIVILIAN TARGETS BECOMES
A CONDITION FOR NEGOTIATION AND ENDING WAR.
I AM REALLY SURPRISED. DO THE BROTHERS RULING IRAQ HAVE NO PITY
FOR BAGHDAD? BAGHDAD IS OUR CITY AND ITS PEOPLE ARE OUR PEOPLE.
INDEED, WE HAVE TOO MUCH PITY FOR IT. I BELIEVE THAT WHAT THEY
ATTRIBUTE TO SADDAM HUSAYN -- THAT HE WILL NOT SURRENDER IRAQ UNTIL
THERE ARE NO MORE PEOPLE IN IT -- IS NOW BEING IMPLEMENTED IN DEED.
HE HAS BEGUN TO DRIVE THE IRAQI PEOPLE IN FRONT OF HIM SO THEY ARE
ANNIHILATED AND THEN IF HE SURRENDERS IRAQ, HE WILL SURRENDER IT
WITHOUT PEOPLE. IT SEEMS THIS STATEMENT IS COMING TRUE.
THIS IS EVIDENT. IT IS EVIDENT NOW THAT THE IRAQI PEOPLE ARE
BEING SQUANDERED AND THAT THERE IS A DECISION TO DESTROY BAGHDAD
BY THE IRAQI OFFICIALS THEMSELVES.
KHOMEYNI HAS SAID I AM READY TO STOP STRIKING BAGHDAD
AND THESE CITIES, PROVIDED THE IRAQIS STOP STRIKING MY TOWNS.
BUT OUR BROTHERS IN IRAQ SAY WE WILL NOT STOP STRIKING CITIES
UNLESS THE WHOLE WAR ENDS. THIS MEANS IRAN GOES AHEAD AND CONTINUES
TO STRIKE BAGHDAD, BASRA AND OTHER CITIES UNTIL THE IRAQI PEOPLE
ARE ANNIHILATED. THIS MEANS THAT THE IRAQI OFFICIALS BELIEVE IN
FACT THAT IRAQ WILL SURRENDER AND SINCE IT IS GOING TO SURRENDER,
THEN THE SAYING MUST BE IMPLEMENTED THAT IT BE SURRENDERED WITHOUT
PEOPLE. THIS IS EVIDENT.
NOBODY CAN DEFAME THE IRAQI ARMY OR ACCUSE IT OF NOT BEING BRAVE,
OR NOBLE. IT IS AN ARAB NATIONALIST BRAVE AND NOBLE ARMY. THE
IRAQI PILOTS ARE BRAVE PILOTS.
THE IRAQIS FOUGHT IN OCTOBER BETWEEN THE ISRAELI AND EGYPTIAN
FIRE. WHEN THEY RETURNED, EGYPTIAN MISSILES USED TO HIT THEM.
WHEN THEY ATTACKED THE LAND OCCUPIED IN 1973 ISRAELI MISSILES FIRED
AT THEM. AN IRAQI SQUADRON WAS SUBJECTED TO ISRAELI MISSILES
AS IT ATTACKED THE OCCUPIED TERRITORY, BUT IT KNEW THAT THE ISRAELIS
WERE RESISTING IT. ON ITS WAY BACK, IT KNEW THAT THE EGYPTIANS
LJOULD FIRE AT IT. THEY -- THE EGYPTIANS -- FIRED AT ANY
PLANE AND NOT ONLY THE IRAQI PLANES, BUT ANY PLANE AT ALL. IN
FACT, EGYPT LOST HALE OF ITS OWN AIRCRAFT THIS WAY. AN
IRAQI HAWK-HUNTER SQUADRON WAS ANNIHILATED THIS WAY. THEY ;dERE
CENTERED IN THE DELTA. THE IRAQI PILOTS WERE BRAVE. THEY DID NOT
COMPLAIN, SAYING WE GO TO THE ENEMY AND HE FIRES ON US AND WE
RETURN TO YOU AND YOU FIRE ON US.
