Fadavi also declared that the U.S. is unable to act on its slogans in the region:

    • The Americans are passive today and they have not at all been in a situation in the last several years to even pose such threats as military action against Iran.

    • If the Americans believed that they could decapitate us tomorrow, they would not hesitate to do so and would not delay the job, but they themselves are well aware that they dont have the power to do so, and they know that the losses that they would sustain by doing so could not match its benefits thanks to our deterrence doctrine.
