Iran welcomes military threats by Tel Aviv to end Israel’s life

If Israeli military threats against Iran take place the “best opportunity will be provided for the disappearance of this fake regime from the scene of the world and hurling it into the dustbin of history,” an Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) commander warned on Saturday. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the aerospace commander of the IRGC, said Iran “welcomes” such threats of military attack because it will give a “pretext” to put an end to the life of this regime “for ever and get the humanity rid of this cancerous tumor”. Hajizadeh said “the Islamic resistance and anti-Zionist front” have been waiting to “take a serious and fateful revenge of the blood of the martyrs of the oppressed Palestinians, Sabra and Shatila (massacre), Lebanon’s Qana, the nuclear martyrs of the Islamic Iran, and thousands of other martyrs.” The military commander went on to say that “the ideal of the annihilation of the Zionist regime” will be realized and “a new Middle East will be created in the region with the will of Muslim nations” in the case these military threats by Israel are put into practice. However, he said “we believe” the military threats by Israeli leaders are a “psychological warfare” as the presidential election in the United States is approaching and Iran is preparing to host Non-Aligned Movement summit. “However,” he added, “if they want to put in action their threats this would be the only positive move by this ‘baby killer’ regime in its nasty life.”

Iran Test-Fires 4th Generation of Most Precise Home-Made Missile

Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi announced on Saturday that the country has successfully test-fired the fourth generation of high-precision Fateh-110 missiles. "The fourth generation of high-precision Fateh-110 missiles with a range of over 300km was test-fired by the defense ministry's aerospace industries organization," Vahidi told reporters in Tehran today. He said that the new missiles can hit and destroy both land and sea targets, enemy concentration points, command centers, missile sites, ammunition dumps, radars and other targets with 100 percent precision. Iran successfully test-fired the third generation of Fateh-110 missiles in August 2010. The Fateh-110 is a short-range, road-mobile, solid-propellant, high-precision ballistic missile with advanced navigation and control systems. The Iranian defense ministry has made great achievements in designing and producing missiles, including the surface-to-surface solid-fuel Sejjil missiles, the long-range Shahab-3 ballistic missile which has a range of up to 2,000 km, and Zelzal and Fateh missiles. Iran has been pushing an arms development program in recent years in a bid to reach self-sufficiency. Tehran launched its arms development program during the 1980-88 Iraqi imposed war on Iran to compensate for a US weapons embargo. Since 1992, Iran has produced its own jet fighters and armored vehicles as well as radar-avoiding missiles and other high-tech weapons. Yet, Iranian officials have always stressed that the country's military and arms programs serve defensive purposes and should not be perceived as a threat to any other country
