\u201cThe issue at the center [of the war] is Iran,\u201d Major General Mohsen Rezaei, who currently serves on the Islamic Republic\u2019s Expediency Council, said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this regard, Gaza and Lebanon have turned into the defensive front for all of the countries in West Asia,\u201d he noted, adding, \u201cIf Gaza and Lebanon fall, the enemy will start moving towards Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n
The comments came amid the Israeli regime\u2019s genocide in Gaza and carnage in Lebanon that have respectively claimed the lives of at least 43,972 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and killed 3,544 Lebanese people.<\/p>\n
The brutal military onslaught has been enjoying full-on political, military, and intelligence support on the part of the United States, the regime\u2019s most dedicated ally.<\/p>\n
Explaining the reason behind the regime\u2019s warmongering, Rezaei said that by waging the war, the enemy seeks to convey the so-called message that \u201cWest Asia is either a place for us or the Islamic Republic.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said the current war was \u201ca matter of fate\u201d for the regime and Washington, the former waging it to prevent its elimination from the region, and the latter engaging in it to \u201cprolong its imperialism and [so-called] superpower status in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Rezaei, the warfare is aimed at \u201cdestroying Islam and confronting Iran\u2019s regional presence.\u201d<\/p>\n
