Iran is Not Scared of Israeli Retaliation, Used Old Missiles on Oct 1 Out of Restraint—Prof Marandi

6 months ago 74

Iran is not scared of any Israeli retaliation; Iran used old missiles on the 1st to exercise restraint; Iran has huge military capacity & Israel will lose this war: Mohammad Marandi, Professor, University of Tehran, to The Wire. .......................................... A Tehran University Professor who is a prominent presence on Al Jazeera and a former Media Advisor to the Iranian Nuclear Negotiation Team, has claimed that Iran used old missiles in the attack on Israel on the 1st suggesting that this was a deliberate act of restraint on Tehran’s part. Prof. Mohammad Marandi also said that Iran is not worried or scared by Prime Minister Netanyahu’s threat to pay Iran back. He says Iran’s nuclear and oil and gas infrastructure is extremely well-protected because, for decades, it has had to protect these installations against any possible American attack. An attack by Israel can, therefore, be easily handled. Prof. Marandi also denied that Ayatollah Khamenei had been taken to a safe house for protection after the killing of Hassan Nasrallah. Speaking about Hezbollah, Prof. Marandi suggested that the killing of Hassan Nasrallah and perhaps 10-12 top commanders, including possibly, Hashem Safieddine is because Beirut is a weak link for Hezbollah. He said in the rest of the country Hezbollah’s strength is unaffected. However, he couldn’t explain why the Secretary General of Hezbollah and his presumed successor, Hashem Safieddine, were based in the weak link area of Beirut. I will stop there. This is a 26-minute interview where you can hear Prof. Marandi’s responses to several questions including about what Iran believes it achieved on the 1st with its missile attack.
