Iran preparing for ‘the Last Six Months’
Despite the recent declaration by Iran that it does not want a nuclear bomb and statements by regime officials that they are willing to negotiate over the nuclear issue, indications from within Iran signal massive preparation for an all-out war as part of its destiny.
By securing Assad and its alliance, Iran gains upper hand for nuclear talks
Turkish prime minister Tayyip Erdogan’s talks with Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Thursday, March 29 were closed to the press, but a statement published on Khamenei’s official website said he told Erdoğan that Iran strongly opposes any foreign intervention in Syria’s conflict and will defend Damascus so that it can continue to be a center of “resistance” against Israel.
Twelve hours later, Iran’s Lebanese stooge, Hizballah’s Hassan Nasrallah, interrupted his Friday night sermon to declare triumphantly: “The die in Syria is cast. Talk of military intervention is over. There is no more talk about arming the opposition or about toppling the regime!”
Saturday, the Syrian Foreign Ministry spokesman Jihad Makdisi announced, “The battle to topple the state is over, and the battle to solidify stability and move towards a renewed Syria has begun.”
Bashar Assad’s victory over the 12-month uprising to unseat him is unquestioned. DEBKA
Assad government will not fall, says Iran
Syrian President Bashar Al Assad’s regime will not fall and Iran stands beside it, the top foreign policy adviser to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Thursday.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran supports the Syrian government and will oppose those who act against Syria,” Ali Akbar Velayati said in remarks reported by the Fars news agency.
“The attempt to topple the Syrian government will not become reality and the front line of confrontation with the Zionist regime (Israel) will not disappear,” he said.
Velayati said Syria — Iran’s principal ally in the Middle East — would resist what was deemed to be foreign interference by the United States to bring down Assad’s regime.
” America has targeted the most sensitive area of the resistance axis, not knowing that Iran, Iraq and Hezbollah are firmly standing by Syria,” he said.
Velayati said, however, that Iran was urging Syria to adopt reforms as it confronts an uprising that erupted in March last year.
“There are problems in Syria and with its governing methods,” he acknowledged. “Iran has repeatedly advised Syria to implement needed reforms and they have carried out that task reasonably,” he said.
