Tehran, YJC. Armed Forces Staff Commander says US better pursue diplomatic ways since its military option’s on-the-table-ness has grown into a joke.
The
Commander of the Armed Forces General Staff of Iran in reaction to the US Secretary
of State John Kerry on the military option being still on the table in regard
to Iran said "The US military option on the table has turned into a joke with
nations. Therefore it would be better if they followed the diplomatic way.”
Hassan
Firouzabadi who was speaking at a meeting with military commanders stated "There
is the proverb which goes ‘Never try to prove what nobody doubts.’ US officials
lately made a blatant mistake to threaten the revolutionary nation of Iran with
the military option.”
He added
"Beside the fact that America’s military option has turned into a joke among
nations, it would be better of US officials took a look back, and if they do
not remember for themselves ask former officials why they didn’t dare attack Iran
despite frequent threatenings and deployed forces and equipment .”
