Top Commander Vows Iranian Armed Forces’ Devastating Response to Any Aggression

In a message issued on Sunday, the top commander reiterated the Armed Forces’ pledge of allegiance to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and, describing Washington as “the Great Satan”, warned against any hostile action towards Iran.

 “We once again pledge our allegiance to the wise and sagacious Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Mojtaba Khamenei, reaffirming our commitment to uphold his clear and illuminating guidance in safeguarding the ideals of the Revolution, as well as the sacred unity and national cohesion of the Iranian people, as the guiding principle of the Armed Forces,” Major General Abdollahi wrote in the message.

“Acting in accordance with the directives and guidance of our Leader, we also remind the Great Satan and the criminal, duplicitous, and deceitful American enemy that any act of covetousness, coercion, hegemonic ambition, or brutality will be met with a decisive and devastating response from the faithful, courageous, and powerful servicemen of the Armed Forces,” he added.

“We will impose upon them costs even greater than those incurred during the second and third imposed wars,” he stated, referring to the two last bouts of wholesale American-Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic.

Reiterating his emphasis on national unity, the commander reminded that Washington had taken aim at the country’s internal cohesion after suffering successive defeats on the battlefield in the face of the nation.

 “Confronting this sinister conspiracy and denying the enemy any hope of success is, therefore, an essential duty for all,” he went on to say.
