The Russian editor believes that Iranian advances are due to their spirituality.
According to BarackObama.ir ,"Alexander Prokhanov”, the Russian editor of the "Zavtra” Russian weekly magazine, traveled to Iran, during the time of mourning for Sayyed al-Shuhada(AS) and has apparently been influenced spiritual atmosphere.

The influence was to such a degree that in an article entitled "Iran has the bomb", by highlighting its spiritual atmosphere, its different point of views about the world and its advances in knowledge creation, he introduces the Islamic Republic of Iran as the biggest challenge for the west because its driving force resides in the spirituality of the young Iranians and the belief in the justice seeking movement led by Imam Hussein (AS).
 
"I’ve recently returned from a trip to Iran: modern cities and excellent roads, lots of cars and glassy skyscrapers located at the crowded junctures and Boulevards. Where Grand Ayatollah Khomeini lived was a small simple home even if he was the one who made an unprecedented spiritual revolution in the world that has put Iran at the center of the world’s civilization. Wonderful Mosques and shrines were gleaming like pearl shells and were holding their golden or azure domes.
 
The holy city of Qom is where the spiritual power of Iran is concentrated with many Islamic universities and schools where the verses of the Quran are studied and being interpreted. I’ve met with officials and ministers, intellectuals and outstanding editors of leading newspaper and I talked to theologians.

I visited the computer centers, where highly equipped salons and laboratories are intended to create computer programs. With their help, we studied the Quran in many of its interpretations and comparisons. I had some conversations with technocrats and scientists associated with the modernization of Iran's nuclear program.I attended in Taziyeh of Ashura, the religious mystery where thousands of Muslims come to the streets of the cities at night and participate in the mourning rites devoted to the martyrdom of Imam Hussein.
 
I moved along with the hundreds of thousands of people who were wailing and weeping and among heavy banners or Alams adorned with ostrich feathers.
Beside me young people, children, children and white-birded old men were moving and were symbolically beating their shoulders with chains to show their sorrow and sympathy not only with a martyr who has been kill as an Imam but also to all of the people grieving today and to all of the downtrodden and the ones who suffer in an unjust manner.

I made a conclusion for myself: Yes, modern Iran has the bomb.  And this bomb is the image of society, the social and spiritual order, to which Iran after the Islamic revolution was made on the world stage and challenged the whole destructive global system.

This system and the society placed in the center of human existence spiritual perfection, spiritual insight and a sense of divine justice giving it a truly universal principle of cosmic meaning. Earthly life, human experience, life, human activities, professions, earthly science and everyday acts are all conceptualized in terms of heavenly values which give them the possibility to find their justification in the religious teachings and in the divine plan.
