[World Net Daily] 'Perhaps America has joined [the war] because we were very close to annihilating Israel. It was in the closing stages'
| Saying it does not make it so, at least in the real world. |
Gen. Ebrahim Jabbari, senior advisor to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps — the branch of Iran's armed forces created by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini in 1979 to protect the radical theocratic regime — said on Iranian TV Monday, June 23, that Iran was "very close to annihilating Israel."
As reported by the Middle East Media Research Institute, or MEMRI, the IRGC commander-in-chief and former commander of current Supreme Leader Ali Hosseini Khamenei's security unit, said the U.S. may have joined the conflict because Iran was on the verge of destroying the Jewish state.
