Iran Challenges America: "You Will Not Swallow Us" Despite Military Buildup
As military tensions between the United States and Iran escalate, Iran has renewed its warnings against any potential attack, asserting its full readiness to repel any threats.
In strong statements during the graduation ceremony of students at the "Davos" military university, Iranian Army Chief General Amir Hatami stated that "Iran is not an easy target" and that "the enemy is mistaken if it believes we are in a position of weakness; we are in a position of strength."
General Hatami added that the United States, despite the massive military buildup it has deployed in the Middle East since the beginning of the year, did not expect to face this Iranian resilience.
He mentioned that "Iran is not swallowable," emphasizing that the country will remain strong and capable of facing any threats.
Hatami stressed that American claims of invincibility are "false claims," citing the defeats of the United States in the Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq wars, from which it emerged defeated. He also pointed out that Washington seeks to "exhaust and drain the Iranian people," but he affirmed that Iran is working to thwart these attempts.
In conclusion, the Iranian Army Chief confirmed that "the responsibility now lies with the army, and it is a critical responsibility under the current circumstances," indicating that Iran will remain fully prepared to confront any foreign threats.
These statements come at a time when the region is witnessing an escalation in military tensions, reflecting the increasing preparations from both sides in response to the deteriorating security situation in the area.
