Israel will eventually go beyond threats and will attack Iran, proving that its enmity with Islam is serious, Mohammad Ali Jafari, commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, was quoted as saying today, as reported by Haaretz.
“Their threats only prove that their enmity with Islam and the revolution is serious, and eventually this enmity will lead to physical conflict,” Jafari said when asked about Israeli threats to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, the Iranian Students’ News Agency (ISNA) reported, according to Haaretz. “We are making all efforts to increase our defensive capabilities so that if there is an attack … we could defend ourselves and other countries that need our help with high defensive capabilities.”
Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency also reported on his comments, citing Jafari as saying that war would probably come in the form of an air offensive, rather than a ground offensive. “No one dares to wage an extensive ground assault on Iran,” Fars cited him as saying.

The man is a fool. Israeli soldiers risk their lives every Friday to make sure that Muslims can pray – safely – on what they consider a holy site in Yerushalayim. He is mistaken that the war is with “Islam” but rather with the cowards and fools that distort the simple truth. Christians also practice their religious freely in a country tolerant of other religions, but intolerant of vicious radical extremists.
And Iranian threats to annihilate Israel will cause what, peace?
Give me a break.
