No One Could Intimidate Iranian Nation
Navideshahed: A senior Iranian military commander says the Iranian nation has proven over the past 33 years that it will be never daunted by threats.
The Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Armed Forces Major General Hassan Firouzabadi said that for years, Iran has been exposed to the enemy's military, economic, political, and cultural threats which aimed to slow down the pace of the country's progress.
“Despite these [threats], both friends and enemies see that the Islamic Republic is rapidly progressing in all economic, political, and cultural fields," he added.
Addressing a massive parade by 50,000 members of Iran's Basij forces, the commander stressed on Friday that the country would respond to any threat with full force.
The commander further stated that enemies are aware of intelligence supremacy in monitoring regional and trans-regional developments.
Pointing to recent allegations by Western countries about discovery of Iranian chemical weapons in Libya, Firouzabadi stated that Iran has never had chemical weapons and is a victim of such weapons.
He stated that since the former Libyan dictator, Muammar Qaddafi is dead the West can make up any stories it wants, adding, “In fact, they killed Gaddafi to be able to tell these lies."
The End
