IRGC admits export of missile to Syrian dictatorship and Hezbollah and the massacre of Syrian people

IRGC Brigadier General Hajizadeh, commander of aerospace section of mullahs’ regime Revolutionary Guards, admitted in an interview that the missile systems of Bashar al-Assad’s dictatorship and the Lebanese Hezbollah are managed by the religious fascism ruling Iran. “The factories that manufacture missiles in Syria are built by Iran and the missiles designed by Iran are being manufactured there… The factories of Syria’s missile industry have been transferred there from Iran ... even the resistance front has learnt the building of its missiles from Iran. The Lebanese Hezbollah and the Palestine resistance in this sector – missiles – have become quite potent and now missiles are everywhere and have a special place,” he said.

This is despite the ban imposed by UN Security Council resolutions on the export of weapons and missiles to other countries by the Iranian regime. The appeasement by the Western countries has emboldened the Iranian regime in violating resolutions and the international laws and conventions.

In a sham muscle-flexing, the IRGC Brigadier General Hajizadeh said: “Our first missiles that could ‘hit Israel’ had a range of no more than 1100 km ... These were completed in several stages until we manufacture today’s Sejjil missiles that are multistage-solid-fuel missiles with a range of 2000 km that are now deployed and abundant in our units.”

“Today, we have Hormoz-1 and Hormoz-2 missiles as well. Each of them has its own specifications and they can hit vessels, battleships and cruisers at long distances,” he added.

Hajizadeh stated that all these projects were implemented through the “prodding and encouragement” by Khamenei himself and that this was the “wisdom of His Excellency that we build missiles that can hit targets accurately and he underscored this since long time ago”.

In circumstances where the mullahs’ regime is at an impasse in the nuclear negotiations, has received a damaging blow by the removal of Maliki in Iraq, and is tainted and detested in the Arab and Islamic World for its crimes in Syria is attempting to cloak its feeble position and avert the adoption of a firm policy against it through this sham muscle-flexing and by threatening the international community.
