Iran Press/Iran News: Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Ghassemi made the comments on Thursday in reaction to the latest rants by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who said he does not rule out the possibility of taking military action inside the Iranian territories.
“Although the corrupt and aggressive Zionist regime, which is a symbol of delusion, grudge, and hatred, will never ever dare to take such a step, the uttering of such outrageous and shameful words out of ignorance or illusion by the prime minister of an aggressive regime, knowingly or unknowingly, amounts to threatening a big country- with a long and proud history - with military action,” Ghassemi noted according to Iran press.
"Such a threat will be certainly followed up on in legal and international forums and institutions,” he warned.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman further noted that the formation of the Zionist regime was originally based on Zionist use of military force, expulsion of the indigenous population, and invading and threatening regional states.
Ghassemi added: "While the Zionist regime has in the past decades been the main cause of instability and insecurity, and the root cause of various conflicts, wars, and killing of human beings from different ethnic groups, nationalities, and religions, it is now expressing false concerns about stability in the region in a ridiculous way and with no shame."
Referring to the defeats sustained by Israel at the hands of Islamic resistance groups in the region, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman warned that in case of any warmongering measure by Israel, Iran’s high military and defensive capabilities will make these short-sighted and malicious warmongers regret such “sick and delusional” remarks.
"Relying on its original history and culture and following its historical experiences, the powerful and honorable Iran and its wise people will foil the inauspicious plots hatched by the ill-wishers against this dynamic nation and territory, with a resolute determination to fight against terrorism, reinforce peace, stability, and security in the region, and promote development and welfare," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman concluded.
