Before noon, the council had a meeting. We have approved two or three items that need a general policy. In the education chapter, we had a detailed discussion on examples of general policy, which was a way to continue the work.
After the meeting, Mr. Khatami, Natiq Noori and Yazdi came together and asked me to participate in the monthly meetings of the heads of the three forces. I accepted Mr. Yazdi, [Head of the Judiciary], told the story of the recent meeting of the teachers' community [Qom Seminary] that due to the opposition of Mr. [Ebrahim] Amini and some others, they could not reach a decision regarding the issuance of a notice in support of the leadership and quality of treatment of Ayatollah Montazeri. In the evening, Mr. [Mohammed] Fallah came from the Ministry of Information and brought the report of Qom issues and the statements of religious figures in recent events.
Mr. [Mohammed Reza] Rahimi, the former governor of Kurdistan, came and criticized the removal of forces in the new government, especially in Kurdistan, and asked me to gather these forces and organize them. Mohsen [Hashmi, CEO of Metro Company] came. Regarding the transfer of the metro [company], [the Ministry of Interior] consulted with the Tehran Municipality, so that with their help and getting a suitable user for the urban land, the problems of the metro could be solved.
In the evening, I watched a football match of the Iranian team in Melbourne, Australia. It was very exciting. Football fever has taken all of Iran and all Iranians all over the world, and basically during the round-trip matches of the teams, for the World Cup in France and the whole world. They say that the same football match will be broadcast live today on 90 TV channels in the world. I saw some TV channels from the satellite, like Lebanon and Saudi.
By God's grace, we won and after twenty years, we once again qualified for the World Cup. It has taken so much enthusiasm and celebration all over Iran that it is even wider than the celebrations of conquest of Khorramshahr. I also sent a congratulatory message.
Today, everyone who saw me spoke about the importance and historicity of my sermons yesterday in the Friday prayer and called it comforting. Mr. Khatami, [President] also said last night, it was a manifestation of a high and good judgement, whose place was empty; Even some analysts on foreign radios and BBC radio praised it with mischievousness and it was said that, contrary to the provocative speeches of Ayat Khamenei and Yazdi, this speech was forward-looking and expedient and suitable for a leadership position; It is clear that they bring this up to seek sedition.
