Iran: Successful Israeli Missile-Defense Test A ‘Grave Provocation’

“This dangerous attitude of Jews thinking they can be sovereign must cease.”

naval gunTehran, December 30 – Leaders of the Islamic republic of Iran denounced a test of Israel’s layered air defense capabilities that took place earlier this month, calling the incident a serious provocation against the forces of justice and peace, who seek to destroy the world’s only Jewish state and restore the proper, precarious, contingent, dependent existence to which Jews had been subject for thousands of years under the rule of others.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Javad Zarif referred to the successful test of the Arrow, David’s Sling, and Iron Dome systems, in a speech before parliament. The minister vowed to the country’s lawmakers that the government under President Rouhani will not tolerate any such demonstrations of commitment to Jewish security, most especially when the avenues toward securing that security neutralize the efforts that Iran has pursued against Israel for more than four decades.

“The Great Satan,” stated Zarif, referring to the US, “and the Little Satan,” an epithet for Israel, “together have long sought to undermine the righteous cause of Palestinian justice. Only by sacrificing as many Palestinians and other non-Iranians as possible to the maw of our Supreme Leader [Ayatollah Ali Khamenei]’s hegemonic ambitions for the region can historic justice be accomplished. US-funded ballistic missile defense for Israel, or other, closer-range defense systems, can only serve satanic ends. Anything that stands between our glorious vision and smoldering Zionist cities must be defeated.”

The test to which Zarif referred constituted an endeavor to check to what extent the various layers of Israeli missile defense, based on disparate systems and infrastructure, could integrate to defeat a mix of simultaneous threats such as ballistic missiles, mortars, suicide drones, short-range rockets, and other weapons that Israel has faced at once or in combination from Iran-backed terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip, such as Islamic Jihad and Hamas, and in Lebanon, such as Hezbollah.

Iranian regime outlets amplified the minister’s remarks Wednesday, with editorials in several prominent publications deeming the defense test an “escalation” of Zionist crimes. A writer in regime mouthpiece Jerqwaad railed against the incomprehensible Israeli insistence on refusing to acquiesce to an existence in which non-Jewish powers determine whether, and under what conditions, Jews may live. “This dangerous attitude of Jews thinking they can be sovereign must cease,” the editorial asserted. “The Jews of Iran prove this point, as they possess the wisdom not to express thoughts against our morally upright, benevolent governance, if they know what’s good for them.”

  1. Indeed, it is a very tragic moment for the Islamic Republic Iran to experience that, the country they wish to destroy, the Jewish State Israel, does not only refuse to be destroyed, but is even capable to defend itself!

    Even the Quran is explicitely requesting that Jews must be killed and not Zionists.
