Palestine from the Perspective of Ayatollah Khamenei (Persian: فلسطین از منظر آیت‌الله خامنه‌ای; Felestin Az Manzar-e Ayatollah Khamenei) is a 2011[1] book excerpting many statements of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei about Palestine and Israel. The book consists of 8 chapters and 416 pages in Persian. It is currently available in Iran only, while an Arabic translation is promised.[2]

A condensed 104-page paperback (also online) all-English version is entitled on the front cover as: "Palestine: Selected Statements by Ayatollah Khamenei About Palestine" but on its Title Page the title is slightly revised as: "The Most Important Problem of the Islamic World: Selected Statements by Ayatollah Khamenei About Palestine", ISBN 978-964-2951-40-6; published by: "Moasseseh Pajooheshi Farhangi Enqlab Eslami".

According to the New York Post, the book opposes the Jewish state, and Khamenei emphasizes making life unbearable for Israeli Jews rather than starting formal wars or massacring them. Khamenei claims that his strategy for the "liberation of Palestine" is based on "well-established Islamic principles".[2]
