TEHRAN -- The chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) on Sunday warned the U.S., the occupying regime of regime, and their cohorts about their efforts to sow discord and division in Iran through inciting riots, emphasizing that the Islamic Republic will decisively thwart their hostile plots.
“Today, America, England, Israel and Al Saud have come to the scene with all their force, but we will definitely turn this scene of great sedition and this world war into the graveyard of the enemies, Americans, Israelis and their allies,” Major General Hussein Salami said.
The U.S., Britain, the occupying regime of Israel, Germany, France, and the House of Saud are all trying to provoke tensions in Iran by means of their divisive media outlets, the commander said.
“However, the nation is fully vigilant. The enemies have many pipe dreams and are living in delusions. They do not know that Iran and its Islamic establishment are fairly strong,” Gen. Salami told a group of Basij members in the southeastern Iranian city of Zahedan.
“Rest assured that the Zionist regime will fall apart, but the Islamic establishment will be out of harm’s way. The delusions of the enemy will not get anything as the establishment is so powerful,” he added.
Salami said the U.S. and Britain seek to restore their political, economic, and cultural dominance over Iran, stressing that the history of both countries is awash with crimes and acts of aggression.
He said while the U.S., British, Israeli, and Saudi leaders are all on one side, the Iranian nation and security forces are on the other.
“In this scene, you can’t stand in the middle. The scene is clear because one side is led by America and Israel and the other side is led by the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution (Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei) and the believing and revolutionary people, and in this situation the path must be determined.”
Gen. Salami said the United States, which has decimated tens of millions of people in various wars and is the exporter of instruments of torture and weapons of mass destruction, and Britain, which has committed massacres all over the world and has a colonial mindset, are nowadays trying to harm the Iranian nation.
“They will never succeed, however,” he added.
The IRGC chief commander emphasized that Iranians are all patriotic, and well know that security is a God-given gift.
