TOP IRANIAN COMMANDER SAYS HE WOULD ‘WELCOME’ AN ISRAELI STRIKE

[Zambini]

A top Iranian commander said he would “welcome” an Israeli strike against his country’s nuclear facilities because it would give Tehran a reason to retaliate and “get rid of” the Jewish state “forever,” Iran’s news agency reported Saturday.

Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, head of the Revolutionary Guard’s air force, vowed that Iran’s response to an Israeli attack would be “swift, decisive and destructive.” At the same time, he called Israel’s threats to strike merely a psychological move against Iran, according to the Associated Press.

The commander’s comments are the latest in the increasingly hostile back-and-forth between Israeli and Iranian leaders. On Friday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel a “cancerous tumor” that would soon be destroyed. U.S. National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor called Ahmadinejad’s comments “offensive and reprehensible.”

There has been increasing speculation about if and when Israel will strike Iran to take out its nuclear program. Iran maintains the program for peaceful purposes, but Israel sees it as an existential threat. A report last week said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had “almost finally” made the decision to strike.

He probably hates his life or something. Why else would he welcome death. Even if he believes they will be victorious, many of his men would die. Just a stupid thing to say.

Iran closes Strait of Hormuz.

US Navy opens Strait of Hormuz.

Game over.

Yeah, Netanyahu's cock is so far up Obama's ass that sounds like a likely possibility.

Obama is either a closet Muslim or a puppet of the Jewish state, I can't keep up.

No, he's a puppet of the Jewish Israeli lobbyists that hold positions of power in the US government.

I think every President since Bush #1 has been the latter, and even he couldn't stand up to the Jewish Lobby.

Why would america not help the biggest democratic ally they have in the middle east...

Either way iran and israel both benefit from threatening each other, allows iran and israel to both justify building up of the military thus increasing profits for the arms companies.
