Iranian Defense Minister:

A Crushing Response Awaits Adventurists

Navideshahed: Iranian Defense Minister, Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, says military adventurism or any act of aggression against the Islamic Republic will be met with a swift and crushing response.



The Iranian Defense Minister stressed that Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) and Army monitor every activity of the trans-regional forces in the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.

“Adventurism and any hostile measure against Iran's territorial integrity will be met with a decisive, swift and crushing response from the country's armed forces,”? IRNA quoted Vahidi as saying on Tuesday.

Vahidi pointed to US efforts to demonize Iran and convince neighboring countries that Iran is a threat to their security and said Washington aims to take control of the Islamic Awakening movement, sell its weapons and divert attention away from its ominous plans.

The Iranian commander's remarks come as the Israeli regime has renewed its aggressive rhetoric against Iran. Israeli President Shimon Peres threatened on Nov. 6 that an attack against Iran is becoming "more and more likely."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak have reportedly been lobbying to persuade the Israeli cabinet to militarily strike Iran over its nuclear program.

Washington and Tel Aviv have repeatedly threatened Tehran with the "option" of a military strike, based on their allegation that Iran's nuclear program may include a covert military aspect.

Iran insists that it has the right to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy.
