IRAN THREATENS TO ‘RAZE TEL AVIV AND HAIFA TO THE GROUND’ IF U.S. ATTACKS

“The United States does not have the courage to shoot a single bullet at us despite all its defensive and military assets. But if they attack us, we will raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground.”

A senior Revolutionary Guards commander said on Monday that Iran would demolish cities in Israel to the ground if the United States attacked the Islamic Republic, as hundreds of thousands of citizens marked the 40th anniversary of the triumph of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

Hundreds of thousands of Iranians marched and some burned US flags on Monday to mark the date, the Shi’ite cleric who toppled the Shah in an Islamic Revolution that rattles the West to this day.

On Feb 11, 1979, Iran’s army declared its neutrality, paving the way for the fall of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the United States’ closest ally in the Middle East. Yadollah Javani, the Revolutionary Guards’ deputy head for political affairs, said Iran would demolish cities in Israel to the ground if the United States attacked the Islamic Republic.
