The Deputy Commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), Hossein Salami, is continuing to threaten Israel.

Speaking on Thursday at a conference in the city of Mashhad, Salami declared that, in case of a new war, Israel will be defeated within three days.

The commander said, according to the Tasnim news agency, that “strategic capacity” has been well shaped for the death of the “illegitimate regime of Israel.”

“We warn them that if a new war breaks out, it will result in their termination,” he continued, adding that an outbreak of fighting on the ground will result in Israel’s defeat within three days. …

Go ahead, make my millennium!

Then why wait? Do it. The fact that you haven’t done it already with the hatred you have for Israel means you can’t do it. So, shut up.

Salami forgot to preface his claim with "If The LORD^{(not Allah)} wills, . . ." etc.

[heshtesh]

OK I have my popcorn and soda so I see no reason for you to hold back Iran.

Also has a bridge for sale...

We are supposed to believe a guy who goes by the name Salami?

Hose in Salami?

I don’t think those threats are very smart, as it they’ll force Israel to blow their cities off the map if they send as much as a firecracker in Israel’s direction.

Do the Iranians really think they would be met by conventional forces in a ground war with Israel? The IDF would tactically nuke their ground army to oblivion while nuking their cities with low-radiation-yield nukes. Three days might be a good estimate for the war’s duration, but maybe a week.

Probably saved that for John Kerry to say. (Remember that?)

[Secret Agent Man]

In what alternate universe does this outcome occur?

[Bobalu]

The Mother of all blowhardity.....(Is that actually a word or did I just make it up..... it sounds right...lol)

[nopardons]

Ummmmmmmmmm...guess the SIX DAY WAR is something that this bozo knows nothing at all about.

[mozarky2]

It would seem Iranian history books only go back to 1968...

[Rebelbase]

Not if on day 2 every major city in Iran is a radioactive ash heap.

[Vendome]

You can’t fight sleep but, you want to fight Israel, huh...?

[Sequoyah101]

Yeah, sure.

Let’s see it.

[Maris Crane]

And Iran can be a memory in five days.
