The chief commander of Iran’s Army says Israel’s “empty threats” against the Islamic Republic hail from Tel Aviv’s “fear”, warning that any Israeli move to operationalize those threats would be met with a “proportionate response.”
Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi made the remarks during an opening ceremony of an exhibition on the capabilities and achievements of the Iranian Navy.
“The Zionists’ driveling hails from fear and horror, as leaders of this ominous regime know that if they wished to get such drivel a bit closer to action, they would receive a proportionate response that would put a sooner end to their existence,” Mousavi said.
Israel has recently intensified its attempts to derail the Vienna talks on the removal of US sanctions against Iran by continually bringing up Iran’s missile and drone capabilities, by claiming that Iran acts maliciously in the region, and last but not least, by resorting to the old allegation that Iran is trying to build nuclear weapons.
