Iranian Supreme Leader Seyyed Ali Khamenei on Monday called on the Muslim world to promote unity and stand against the United States, the official IRNA news agency reported.

"The Muslim world should promote unity and stand against the global arrogance of the US anywhere and in whatever manner," Khamenei was quoted as saying.

"Today, the oppressive US has attacked the Muslim world and is killing people in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine under the pretext of anti-terrorism and through mottos such as democracy and freedom," Khamenei said.

Khamenei also recalled the hatred of the Muslim world against the US, saying that Islamic countries should obtain energy from the hatred to fight against the US.

"The logic of the global arrogance of the US is assassination, oppression and aggression. This logic has never been dialogue and fair compromise," he said.

"The US, as a clear manifestation of evil, will never be content with anything but absolute domination over the Muslim world and the Middle East," Khamenei added.

Khamenei further criticized some Islamic countries for keeping silence toward the "atrocities of the US and Israel in the Muslim world" under the pretext of fighting terrorism.

"The US and the Zionists are the real sponsors of terrorism," he said.

Relation between Iran and the US has always been tensed since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Washington has accused Tehran of supporting terrorist and seeking nuclear weapons, labeling Iran as "axis of evil". In return, Iran terms the US as the enemy of all Islamic countries.
