IRGC Chief: US Authorities Showing Confused over Israel-Hamas Conflict

Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami said that the US administration and politicians are bewildered over the recent developments in West Asia, adding that Washington is drifting in an aimless path.

Maj. Gen. Salami made the remarks in a ceremony in Tehran on Tuesday as more than 10,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip since Israel launched its military operation against the besieged enclave.

The top general described the Zionist regime as “a decayed and rotten tooth” that has been detached from its root and feels its early and rapid decline.

“The Americans have accordingly realized the fall of their image and credibility in the eyes of the world,” he stated.

Salami stressed that the US officials and the European countries siding with Washington in the crimes perpetrated in Gaza are confused and bewildered.

“Americans act like someone who is drifting in an aimless way,” the IRGC chief added.

Pointing to the fact that the US has never been so isolated throughout its history, the senior commander said, “Today, the US has lost its previous standing in the world and is investing in a regime that has had no achievements for it, and this is the result of the lack of wisdom in the US ruling system”.

“The defeat of the Zionist regime and the decline of the US are a source of peace and security for the world,” he added.

Iran says a new world order in favor of the Resistance Front and independent countries is emerging, as the power of the United States continues to wane. Tehran also adds the balance of power has long shifted against the interests of the Zionist regime.

Iranian officials believe the future of the world will not witness unilateralism, and multilateralism will spread across the globe. They stress that the future of the world and region will be shaped by regional countries and organizations, as a growing number of states across the globe have rejected unilateralism and coercion. They asked independent states to challenge the US hegemony in the region and around the world, and stressed that domineering behavior is not just special to Democrats or Republicans but in the nature of American policies.

Iranian military officials have also stressed that Washington has weakened to the extent that it plays no role in the West Asia region’s geopolitical landscape. They stated that Iran has defeated the US which enjoyed unrivalled hegemony in the region and the whole world before the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, but after the revolution they were forced to flee the region.

Officials in Iran say Washington cannot go ahead with its plan in the West Asia region as its schemes are doomed to fail, and add that Iran plays a key role in the political decisions of the United States and the fate of the White House is affected by Tehran’s attitude.
