Commander: Enemies Unable to Wage War on Iran (says capable of targeting US and Israeli interests)

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – A senior Iranian military commander reiterated that the country's military might has prevented enemies from launching military attack against Iran, and stressed that the country is fully capable of targeting US and Israeli interests in the region.

“The enemy is aware that the Islamic Republic has the power to destroy the US and Israeli illegitimate interests in the region and can deliver them serious and crippling blows,” Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Brigadier General Masoud Jazayeri said on Monday.

He dismissed the US war rhetoric against Iran, and said due to Iran's high military capabilities, the US is incapable of launching a military attack against the country.

“For years, our commanders have kept their fingers on the trigger," he stated, adding, “They have been given both the permission and the authority (to attack enemies) and this is neither a bluff nor propaganda.”

In similar remarks last month, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan said the US is absolutely incapable of making any move against Iran, adding that the general conditions in the world and the region will not allow them to act.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a ceremony to commemorate the second anniversary of martyrdom of the father of Iran’s missile technology, Hassan Tehrani Moqaddam, here in Tehran, the defense minister said that it is not a new development that the US says the military option is on the table.

“The Americans are in clash with for 34 years and they have been acting against our system and our revolution in various ways,” he said.

My answer to General J-Z is in the form of a New Years greeting:

“Blow it out your ass, camel humper”.

Now, wasn’t that nice of me?

I think, especially SINCE 2011, we'd be wise to consider the possibility it can be done.

The Plames and Wilsons and Arrafat's and Benghazi's have come and gone ... unchallenged and unaltered.

Maybe they'd LIKE is to continue thinking they're a 6thy century mentality.

I'm sure Sun Tzu has something to say about that tactic

Notice the muzzies always spew their trash talk when a weak knee president is in office.

As soon as Ronald Reagan was elected, the Iranians released the embassy hostages...they knew the cavalry was about to ride in to save the day.

America can crush their infrastructure, never setting foot on Iranian turf nor use our newkler toy’z.

I'm thinkin paybacks in order.

His two greatest assets that allow him to make this claim are Barrack Obama and Valerie Jarrett, so he is probably correct...for now.

Muslim’s are always full of themselves.

And for some reality... Enemies fully capable of decimating Iran, current muslim puppet resident in America incapable of harming it's masters, while Israel fully capable of raining hell fire upon Iran and turning it into a sea of glass. Iran, loud talk, no stick.
