Tehran, Iran, Oct. 11 – A top general of Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps issued on Tuesday a direct threat to the United States and its allies, warning that the Islamic Republic had identified “all the weak points of our enemies” and has suicide operation volunteers “ready to strike at these sensitive locations” in retaliation to any attack.
“We know all of the enemies’ weak points and what to do against them. Today, we have ready martyrdom-seeking individuals who are ready to strike at these sensitive points”, Brigadier General Mohammad Kossari, who heads the Security Bureau of Iran’s Armed Forces, told the state-owned news agency ILNA.
Kossari said that Iran’s “enemies” were bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan and were looking for a way to escape.
“Enemies of a nuclear Iran could not do a damn thing” to stop the Islamic Republic in its nuclear pursuit, he said.
“If Iran’s nuclear case is not resolved logically through discussions at the [International] Atomic Energy Agency, it is better for Iran to withdraw this organisation. Take note, just like in the [Iran-Iraq war] they cannot do a damn thing”.
The top security official called on leaders of Iran’s neighbouring countries to side with the Islamic Republic so that foreign forces would be forced to leave the region.
He said that Iran’s ambition was to become a regional superpower.
Is it too early to start rolling in the tanks?
Man, can these turban boys talk some sh*t or what?
Good. The next homocide bomb attack on the US will be a 'cause of war' against Iran.
I've grown very tired of being threatened as an American.
"Would you just bomb them based on threats...?"
Yes my hippie friend...yes I would.
"When would you bomb them...?"
Today my hippie friend...today.
ah, they will be carrying out their acts in memory of the field of fused glass that was once known as Iran...
How many ICBM multi-warhead missiles are needed to return Iran to the paleolithic era?..........
And we need to quietly tell them they will be introduced to suicide nukes.
That should read "world superpower."
Someone needs to do something about Ahmadinejad. Now.
Where do they breed these idiots? In a sewer somewhere?
Actually, any military engagement with the U.S. can be considered a suicide operation, Haji.
Perfect.
Thank you Jimmy Carter.
ummmmmm, isn't this a declaration of hostilities? doesn't this call for a response? like, say, the destruction of one atomic weapons plant?
It would seem that they certainly are calling us out.
The last one was plenty cause. But for some reason we seem to be deliberately avoiding giving them the major butt-whoopin' that they're begging for.
“Enemies of a nuclear Iran could not do a damn thing”
Except blow them to smithereens.
This was a ranking military officer? I'm struck by the fact that the government isn't even reeling in people like this a$$hole and the public statements they make. Unbelievable.,p>
On the other hand, since this comes from a ranking military officer we need to pay careful attention. And act accordingly.
You would think after seeing what is happening on either side of them currently that they would show some restraint in the threatening posture. To paraphrase our great President......
"BRING IT ON IRAN"
That isn't talk either.... If they want to attack us we one of the most well equipped well trained military in the world, plus all the citizens behind them. (excluding the leftist peace weenies.)
