| Iran's Quds Force Scoffs at Calls to Disarm Hamas |
| 2014-08-01 |
| [An Nahar] The chief of Iran's elite Quds Force has ridiculed calls for Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, to be disarmed and urged the Paleostinian Islamist movement in Gazoo to "turn the land and skies into hell" for Israel. Major General Qassem Suleimani's message to krazed killer factions resisting Israel's military operations in the Gazoo Strip was published late Wednesday by Iran's official IRNA news agency. Suleimani "underlined that confronting the Zionist enemy is a necessity and the Paleostinian resistance movement will turn the land and skies into hell for the Zionists." "Disarmament of resistance is a daydream that will only come true in the graveyard" for Israel, said the rarely-quoted senior figure. The United States and European countries have called for a ceasefire in the devastating Gazoo conflict and the disarmament of krazed killer groups in the coastal strip, notably Hamas. The Quds Force, a branch of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, is highly secretive and conducts security functions abroad deemed necessary to protect the Islamic republic. As its leader, Suleimani is seldom mentioned or pictured in Iranian media but he has cultivated a reputation as one of the most influential security operatives in the Middle East. |
