In a strongly worded statement reported by Iran International English on Twitter, Salami said, “Our eyes are fixed upon you, and we will fight to the very end, refusing to let you dictate the fate of Muslims. Retribution will come; we will respond with painful blows—just wait and see.”
The IRGC chief’s remarks come amid an increase in hostile rhetoric and military posturing between Iran and Israel, reflecting a longstanding, tense relationship. Salami’s statement emphasizes the IRGC’s stance on Israel as a central adversary and reaffirms Iran’s commitment to challenging what it sees as Israeli influence in the Middle East. His words imply that Iran is prepared for potential military retaliation if it perceives actions from Israel as a direct threat.
Analysts see Salami’s statement as an attempt to project strength domestically and regionally. Iran’s leadership frequently uses assertive language when addressing Israel, a strategy designed to reinforce its role as a guardian of Muslim interests in the region. The IRGC, known for its influence in Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq, often issues similar messages to signal its stance against Israel and its commitment to supporting groups aligned against Israeli interests.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
