Iran vows to crush any Israeli attempt to hit its "advisory" role in Syria

Iran vows to crush any Israeli attempt to hit its "advisory" role in Syria

Iran on Sunday vowed to defeat any Israeli attempt to harm its role in Syria, saying the era of "hit and run" attacks by Israel there was over, days after Israel carried out air strikes on Syrian army and Iranian paramilitary targets in the country.
Israel, which views Tehran as its biggest security threat, has repeatedly attacked Iranian targets and those of allied militia in Syria, where Tehran has backed President Bashar al-Assad and his forces against rebels and militants since 2012.

On Wednesday, an Israeli military spokesman said eight targets were attacked, including an Iranian headquarters at Damascus international airport and a "secret military site" that served as a "hosting facility for senior Iranian delegations when they come to Syria to operate".

Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khateebzadeh told a virtual weekly news conference: "The Zionist regime (Israel) is well aware that the era of hit and run is over and therefore they are very cautious."

Iran denies having military forces in Syria and says it has sent commandos to the country as military advisers. Tehran says it will provide military advisers to Syria for as long as necessary.

"Iran's presence in Syria is advisory and naturally if anyone disrupts this advisory presence, our response will be a crushing one," Khatibzadeh said.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a war monitor, said at least 10 people, including five Iranians from the Quds Force, a branch of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards responsible for operations outside of Iran’s own borders, were killed during the attack.

"I do not confirm the martyrdom of Iranian forces in Syria," "Khatibzadeh said.

Ya oh you must be one of those chicken chit jews. From the jews I know the women are way tougher than the men. And I don't care nor does it matter who married a jew in the US

Oh ya, you are wrong. The Jews are genius, as they convincing others to do the dirty job for them.

For example, how they “leaked” wrong intelligence to move the Western Coalition to take down Saddam Hussein right after Saddam bombed Tel Aviv.

That’s called wisdom, not “girly men” (or stupidity, from the American’s point of view).

The fact that Clinton’s daughter married to a Jewish man while Bill sex offended with Jewish secret agent, Trump’s daughter married to a Jewish man and became Jewish herself, Jo Biden’s 2 sons married to Jewish and Kamala Harris dear Husband is Jewish just makes USA by nature and for good reasons a stronger supporter for Israel and it’s security and political interests.

Nothing wrong in being smart. Do not blame them. And nothing wrong in maneuvering others to serve your interest. Thats what all mans do to woman’s and what all woman’s do to mans. It’s called mutual interest. That’s also what Google, Facebook (Jewish, by the way) and others doing, successfully, in peace, using smart tactic and strategy.

It’s not because the Jewish are bad. They are not. They just doing their legitimate best to survive. It’s because the others are less smart, if at all.

The jews only know how to strike from over Cyprus and then run home like girly men. Scared chitless to fight face to face
