Sanei Letter to Mousavi

Here is a letter that Grand Ayatollah Sanei wrote to Mousavi:

Greetings to my honourable friend – the kind and faithful Mr. Mir Hossein Mousavi,
long-time supporter of the departed Imam and of the nation,

I received your letter. We wish you success with your noble plans and projects. We hope that they will be met with increased social awareness – something that has always been at the fore of the missions of the great prophets, the sacrifices of the martyrs, the devotion of the pious and the prayers of those close to God. In addition, we anticipate the attainment of civil rights and the realization of justice as a cultural product of our society.

We must be mindful of the fact that one of the key goals of any plan is to strengthen the union between all abused people because the source of all happiness and hope lies in this very unity on the path of God. We must take great care so that, God forbid, this message of unity does not become a tool for the oppressors to [take advantage of and] attack the oppressed. Such development would lead to nothing but further oppression.
