The blood of the martyrs is too sacred to be left unavenged, and the terrorists or any terroristic regime that killed the innocent will definitely pay the price.

Here the definition of the word “martyr” is essential. A martyr is not an ordinary person.

To qualify for the rank of a martyr a person ought to be pious, God-conscious, discern right from wrong, differentiate between truth and falsity, and possess the spirit to sacrifice his/her life in defence of faith, virtue, honour, community, and country – all combined. 

Thus any listless, unethical, immoral, irreligious, agnostic, and atheist person is neither considered a martyr nor will go to paradise if killed on the claim of a dubious cause.

On Monday, Iranians attended the funerals of two more heroes flown home for eternal rest on achieving martyrdom aboard at the hands of a racist, terroristic, and cowardly regime, whose very existence is illegal.

Our salutations to Milad Heidari and Meqdad Mehqani Jafarabadi who have joined the list of those whose sacred blood continues to safeguard the values of the Islamic Revolution and ensure the progress of the forces of resistance active on the frontlines of the fight against the hordes of Satan.

They were members of the legendry anti-terrorist organization, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), and were serving as advisors in Syria – a country which the US and its comrades-in-crimes against humanity failed to rip apart in a decade long wave of macabrely murderous terrorism by devilish elements masquerading as ‘Muslims’. 

Syria is now being frequently targeted in sheer frustration by the despicable Zionist entity, which continues to occupy parts of the Golan Height, while the UN pays no attention to the plight of a member state despite the fact the lawless US troops occupying are stealing in broad daylight the oil of its impoverished people.

The two Iranian patriots were victims of Israel’s desperate bid to provoke Syria as well as Iran into rash reaction as part of a plot to divert attention from the protests by hundreds of thousands of Jews of various extraction illegally settled in the usurped land of Palestine on promise of green pastures, and now intent upon ending the Zionist dream.

Damascus definitely has the right to retaliate for the frequent Israeli air raids and missile attacks, and will do it at the right moment.

As for Tehran, patience is running thing, and make no mistake vengeance will swiftly come. The Islamic Republic, in line with the aspirations of the almost 2 billion world Muslims, is serious on the uprooting of the Zionist tumour from the region and liberation of Islam’s third holiest city, Bayt al-Moqaddas.
