Iranian Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi warned the United States against attacking Iran, saying the Iranian Armed Forces will teach it how to fight and (make it) realize what fighting really means”.

Addressing a parade of about 50 thousand revolutionaries in the southwestern city of Bushehr on Sunday, Vahidi warned that it will sink the US warships :

” If the enemy attacks Iran, it must be ready to answer some questions such as how long it can fight against the Islamic Republic and how much it is ready to watch the sinking of its warships and ships.”

150, 000 missiles?
Commenting on Israeli threats to attack the Iranian nuclear facilities , Vahidi warned:“Why does the Zionist regime issue such threats? For how many missiles has it readied itself: 10 thousands, 20 thousands, 50 thousands, 100 thousands, 150 thousands, or more?”

He added, “The Zionist regime has not yet paid the price” for the massacres it committed in Sabra and Shatila and the Gaza Strip, and, if this regime attacks Iran, the Islamic Republic will take revenge for those crimes.

He did not say whether the 150, 000 missiles will be fired from Iran or by Hezbollah in Lebanon or Hamas in Gaza.

Last Thursday the military adviser to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei , General Yahya Rahim Safavi warned Israel that should it attack Iran’s nuclear sites the Islamic Republic will rely on its allies Hezbollah and Hamas to do the fighting.

“There will be no need for Iran to launch ballistic missiles at Israel, because all the Zionist cities are within the range of our ally Hezbollah’s Katyusha (rockets),” he said.

LOL,
1. How can the Iranians expect to be taken seriously when their DM is relying on and glorifying a militia, does he have no faith in the armed forces of Iran?

2. This makes 2 threats in 2 days? A strong country does not need to make threats,

3. What about the massacres committed by Amal( Hassan Nasrallah was amal partisan at the time BTW) with assistance and under protection of assad regime? Burj al barajneh Sabra, Shatilla, ALL WEST BEIRUT, Tripoli especially bab al tebbeneh?

okay let me get this straight.

if in the case of an attack by the zionist, the way iran will get back is by havig hizbullah and Hamas attack from [not so] foreign land?

in any other circumstances this means cowardness..especially when we all know that to defeat the zionist state next door it takes more then a missle or two from foreign lands to be fired..

and to think that this is coming from a top iranian military official…..is just….sad.

ZiadH is right, if the Iranians are so strong to “teach a lesson how to fight” then why are they warning all the times ? why are they scared of enemy attack, come on Iran ,show your balls to the world what you are able to do,

Whatever… It is the nth time this is repeated. Is there anything else to say? For the aounists: I thought this resistance of yours is to defend Lebanon, not Iran? What is your argument now?

For the aounists also: under an Islamic regime led by Khomeini, Christians will have no equal rights to the Shiite, won’t be even eligible for presidency or minister role. where are you heading blind folded like this? A second class citizenship for your children? Who would stop Nassi to declare himself some sort of an emperor, if international presure backs off, with what will aoun stop him? With his walking stick?

Is there any aounist on this blog who can articulate a clear argument?

Whatever… Talk is cheap. The U.S. armed forces will wipe all your cities in one hour and that without using their nuclear arsenal. Look up M.O.A.B and cheer. However, the U.S. will try not to harm civilians and you are hiding behind the fact that this is a country of Law and even a President can be held accountable for crimes against humanity. Don’t tug on Superman’s cape. Just an advice.
