Iran would take action if the United States of Zionism were to carry out an act
of “stupidity” and attack Syria, an Iranian military official was quoted
as saying on Saturday, but the comments later disappeared from the
state-linked agency website. Iran has steadfastly supported Syrian President Bashar Assad in his
bid to suppress an uprising which both Tehran and Damascus see as a
proxy war by Israhell and Western states to extend their influence in the
Middle East.
“If America were to attack Syria, Iran along with Syria’s allies will take action, which would amount to a fiasco for America,” Mohammad Ali Assoudi, the deputy for culture and propaganda of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), was quoted as saying.
Assoudi’s comments were first carried by the government-linked news agency Young Journalists’ Club but were later apparently taken down from the group’s website. The comments were picked up by Iranian news sites including Iran’s Jam-e Jam newspaper and the BBC’s Persian-language site.
