Tehran, Iran, Aug. 18 Irans most senior military official said on Saturday that the United States was bogged down in Iraq and unable to act against Irans elite military force. The top generals remarks were in response to reports in Western media that the Bush administration was planning to include Irans Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) in the U.S. State Departments list of terrorist organisations.
The hopeless actions and suggestions by the U.S. which are a result of its hopelessness and defeat in its aggression and occupation of Iraq cannot harm the IRGC, Major General Hassan Firouzabadi, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Islamic Republics armed forces, said at a gathering. His remarks were reported by the state-run news agency ISNA.
Exactly at a time when the U.S. military commander in Iraq speaks of insecurity and no prospect in operations and a feeling of hopelessness by U.S. commanders and military personnel, certain idiots and brainless individuals in the U.S. itself have undertaken a new psychological warfare. They want to introduce the name of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps as terrorist, General Firouzabadi said.
We must tell the IRGCs number one enemy the criminal U.S. which is hated by most people in the world that this undeveloped suggestion about including the proud name of the IRGC in some list is stupid and will more than ever make the IRGC more dear, well-liked, and victorious for the Iranian people and Muslims alike, he added.
