Iranian Majlis Speaker: Time to avenge

Pars Today- Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly of Iran said, "It is the time of revenge and this revenge will be taken by any means and with any tool."

According to Pars Today, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, Speaker of the Iranian Majlis (Parliament), issued a message in reaction to the recent aggression of the Zionist regime. The full text of the message reads,

"In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

Among the faithful are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah; of them some have completed their vow and some still wait, while they have never changed in the least. (verse 23 of chapter Ahzab of the holy Qur'an)

The wicked hand of the criminal and terrorist Zionist gang was once again plunged in the blood of the commanders and combatants in dear Iran. I congratulate and extend my condolences to the Iranian bereaved nation, noble families of martyrs and the great and mighty Leader of the Islamic Revolution on the occasion of martyrdom of brave and martyrdom-seeking commanders and scientists and a number of innocent people of our country.

Dear nation!

The thuggish Zionist regime, through attacking residential areas, proved that it is the greatest enemy of mankind and the most wicked enemy of each and every Iranian individual. But, the painful response of the combatants of Islam and harsh and regrettable punishment is waiting for them and their supporters. Time is ripe for revenge and this revenge will be taken by any means and with any tool. We will not let go of them and will punch them hard in the head. They have started this adventure, but we will end it, God willing.

The noble Iranian nation know their valiant and faithful children in the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Martyrdom is their longtime aspiration. They sacrifice their life for the nation and are men of battle, and ready to put the enemy's bitter fate into effect, with God's permission.

Dear nation!

We swear by the pure blood of our martyr brothers in the presence of God that, like a mountain, we will defend you and our dear country to the end of our life.

The blood of martyrs is the light of our path and we have learnt resistance and steadfastness from you. We will deprive your enemies of sleep and the enemy will once again kneel down before you. Allah will certainly help those who help Him. Indeed, God is All-strong, All-mighty. (verse 40 of chapter Hajj)
