[00:01:28] of of in
[00:01:38] of
[00:01:48] of
[00:01:53] of
[00:02:00] of
[00:02:30] means that we have at our disposal here at Press TV in order for the American people
[00:02:34] in general and the whole world for that matter to uh understand what it
[00:02:37] is that the ARGC had in its purpose of writing the letter in terms
[00:02:41] of the different themes uh since you have mentioned the Palestinians and
[00:02:45] why uh the US is providing the Israely regime with the bombs and the
[00:02:48] ammunition. Let's
[00:02:50] of move to anniversary that we are
[00:02:52] of marking and perhaps around the world this is being marked and that is the
[00:02:55] in fact that uh you have this October 7th
[00:03:00] of in anniversary that is upon us uh "this was very bold and courageous event that took place, it was a turning point not
[00:03:04] only for the Palestinians in general uh, but uh also the way
[00:03:08] that uh it was a symbol of standing up against the Israeli regime and
[00:03:12] also uh the US regime for that matter and uh the way that they oppressed
[00:03:16] Palestinians and it awakened the world in general to the uh flight
[00:03:20] of the Palestinians. um tell us the achievements in your point of view
[00:03:23] of uh
[00:03:25] of what of uh October 7th brought and uh this was
[00:03:29] again..." should be mentioned that murder was one
[00:03:33] of the key architects behind this and how this helped the palestinian
[00:03:37] cause
[00:03:40] of خب این عملیات بزرگی که فلسطینی ها
[00:03:44] تحت عنوان طوفان الاll the
[00:03:47] of major operation carried out by the palestinians under the name
[00:03:51] operation in
[00:03:54] a 2023 was very significant operation with far reaching
[00:03:59] of consequences an operation that was able to bring about major
[00:04:02] changes
[00:04:03] in the region, although we have witnessed numerous developments in west
[00:04:07] Asia over recent decades, each of which has had an
[00:04:10] impact on the equations
[00:04:12] of the region. alax of flood has one particular
[00:04:16] feature that distinguishes it from all the other
[00:04:19] events that have taken place, and that is that those
[00:04:23] who plan the operation wanted to free their own people from
[00:04:27] huge prison, the designist regime.
[00:04:49] of
[00:04:57] of of
[00:05:12] freedom to choose whether or not to act, they had reached
[00:05:16] a point where they had no choice but to make that
[00:05:19] decision, because they needed to survive and to secure
[00:05:23] at least the basic standards of normal life for their
[00:05:27] people. so the operation that was carried out brought about
[00:05:31] major transformation and achieved significant
[00:05:34] results. the first achievement of this operation was that it
[00:05:38] revived the palestinian cause. palestine was regular.
[00:05:53] and especially with the agreement that the US president was pursuing known as
[00:05:57] the Abraham accords, which sought to normalize relations
[00:06:01] between the zionist regime and arab countries and other countries in the
[00:06:05] region, if this normalization had taken place in
[00:06:08] full, palestine would effectively have been eraised from
[00:06:28] and also keeping the Palestinian cause alive and in
[00:06:32] effect preserving Palestine in history, and they achieved
[00:06:36] these significant results as well. The first achievement was
[00:06:40] precisely that they were able to preserve. the name
[00:06:43] Palestine and not only preserve it, but to introduce it to
[00:06:46] people all over the world, people who did not know what had
[00:06:50] historically happened to the land of Palestine and its people, and
[00:06:54] who did not even know that the zionists were not
[00:06:57] originally from Palestine, but had come from other lands
[00:07:01] and seized the Palestinian ancestral homeland, and are
[00:07:05] now destroying them, these people did not know any of this,
[00:07:09] but this operation caused the entire world. to
[00:07:13] understand what Palestine is, who the Palestinians are,
[00:07:17] what they are fighting for, and why they have been subjected to
[00:07:21] oppression. This was not an injustice that had lasted for
[00:07:24] just two or three years. They had been confined to this
[00:07:28] prison for 18 years and in fact, it did not
[00:07:32] begin even 18 years ago. This oppression began more than
[00:07:36] 70 years ago. It began when the Palestinian people, out of
[00:07:39] goodwill, and as hospitable people, welcomed
[00:07:43] these Israelies as guests, received them, and made their
[00:07:47] own land available for them to settle. They took
[00:07:50] advantage of that hospitality, seized the land, and
[00:07:54] that was when their oppression began. Therefore, this
[00:07:57] oppression was natural reaction to major
[00:08:00] injustice. The second achievement was that they inflicted
[00:08:04] major intelligence failure on the Zionist regime. The Zionist
[00:08:08] regime had placed itself a position where it believed. it
[00:08:12] had complete intelligence dominance, it claimed that
[00:08:16] it could monitor the movement of every crawling creature and
[00:08:20] the flight of every bird, and that it was impossible for
[00:08:24] anyone to penetrate its intelligence system, but what
[00:08:27] happened, it wasn't that they lacked intelligence
[00:08:31] data, in fact they had an enormous amount of intelligence
[00:08:35] data. the problem was that they made major mistake in
[00:08:38] analyzing that data, the data did not lead them to...
[00:08:42] truth, in other words, despite having vast amounts of data
[00:08:46] collected through highly advanced systems, they
[00:08:50] were unable to analyze it correctly, because the assumptions they
[00:08:54] had already made, they accepted any information that
[00:08:57] supported their belief in the weakness the Palestinian people,
[00:09:01] while anything that contradicted that belief was
[00:09:05] dismissed as noise. As result, they were unable to produce a
[00:09:09] correct analysis and major gap emerged in the... intelligence
[00:09:13] system, they were completely caught off guard. this was
[00:09:16] very, very major defeat for the zinanis regime. in other
[00:09:20] words, the so-called smart wall collapsed, the electronic
[00:09:24] surveillance and control system collapsed, the supposedly
[00:09:28] impenetrable system was breached. this was major
[00:09:32] achievement and Israel was left humiliated. it suffered such a
[00:09:36] blow that even now, the years later, it has still been
[00:09:39] unable to recover. the reckless actions. is taking
[00:09:43] are because it still has not been able to come to terms with this
[00:09:47] defeat. That was the second achievement. The third
[00:09:50] achievement was that Israel's aura of power was
[00:09:54] shattered. Israel considered itself the most powerful country
[00:09:57] in the region. It considered its military the most powerful
[00:10:01] military in the region. It even claimed that it could not only guarantee
[00:10:05] its own security 100%, but that it could also guarantee
[00:10:09] the security the countries in the region. But this attack.
[00:10:26] Today no one looks at Israel as safe place, even Israelies
[00:10:29] themselves no longer regard it as safe place where they can
[00:10:33] invest or even live. You have seen how much reverse
[00:10:37] migration has taken place during this period and how much
[00:10:41] capital has left Israel. This shows that its security
[00:10:44] has been compromised, and no one can any longer count
[00:10:49] it as a place secure enough for living or investment.
[00:10:52] Another achievement of this operation was. exposing the zionist
[00:10:56] regime's criminal and inhumane strategies, it
[00:11:00] exposed strategies that were fundamentally
[00:11:03] inhumane, such as what? genocide? the zinanis
[00:11:07] regime carried out a massive genocide there, out a massive
[00:11:11] genocide there, it showed no mercy even to chill killed
[00:11:14] newborn babies just one day old by disconnecting
[00:11:18] their life support equipment, it used starvation as a
[00:11:21] weapon against an entire population.
[00:11:55] have been completely leveled, well that is not normally how wars
[00:11:59] are fought, military targets are struck, industrial infrastructure is
[00:12:03] struck, gathering points are struck, but you don't simply
[00:12:07] flatten an entire area. Israel has leveled parts of
[00:12:11] gaza to the ground, it has destroyed all the
[00:12:14] infrastructure, struck the water reservoirs serving the
[00:12:18] population and destroyed the drinking water system.
[00:12:22] this is a crime, and in fact this crime is... part the
[00:12:25] zionist regime's strategy, the exposure of a strategy
[00:12:29] in which someone considers starving a population to death,
[00:12:33] a method of warfare. this is not even permitted under international
[00:12:37] laws governing warfare. if someone captures a prisoner of
[00:12:41] war, they have to provide food and water, and at least the
[00:12:44] minimum necessities of life. they should even be allowed some
[00:12:48] recreation and be permitted to go outside and get some
[00:12:52] sunlight, but designs have. inhibited these things
[00:12:56] in their own territory, things in their own territory.
[00:13:00] another thing that happened was that the inability of
[00:13:03] international organizations to stop these crimes was
[00:13:06] exposed. international organizations witnessed
[00:13:10] what was happening. they sent representatives filmed
[00:13:14] representatives filmed there and saw the events first hand, first
[00:13:18] hand, multiple crimes, numerous moral violations and
[00:13:22] numerous war crimes were committed there. their representatives
[00:13:26] prepared reports, but the international organizations were unable
[00:13:30] to do anything, these international
[00:13:33] organizations are no longer trusted, nations no
[00:13:36] longer have confidence in these organizations. before these
[00:13:40] crimes, someone might have said, well, there are
[00:13:44] international organizations, they will come and investigate the
[00:13:47] matter, but that did not happen, this was another
[00:13:51] major revelation. the next achievement was the further.
[00:14:04] to uphold the rule of law and human
[00:14:06] America claims rights, it claims to support the international system and the institutions that
[00:14:10] make up that system, many of which are even based in its own
[00:14:14] country. Yet today, America is bullying
[00:14:17] international institutions and defying their
[00:14:20] decisions. International institutions have declared the
[00:14:23] president the design is. regime a war criminal and issued an arrest
[00:14:27] warrant against him, ordering his detention and imprisonment,
[00:14:31] yet this same Israeli president, accused of war crimes, goes to the
[00:14:35] United States and is welcomed by the international forums and is
[00:14:39] given a international forums and is given a platform to speak and
[00:14:43] deliver at the United States, the United
[00:14:47] States has sanctioned the judges against
[00:14:50] Netanyahu, this is against Netanyahu, this is
[00:14:54] truly.
[00:15:25] revelation of course we are running short on time now, there are
[00:15:29] many more points, there may be around 10 or
[00:15:33] 15 major achievements of
[00:15:35] operation
[00:16:07] about of which you mentioned many, but one the
[00:16:11] things that that it did do, it actually paved the way for the
[00:16:15] current situation that we're seeing unfold in the past
[00:16:18] i guess months in particular,
[00:16:22] and that is
[00:16:22] the fact that we have seen the Israeli regime
[00:16:26] in conjunction with the US to have attacked the Islamic Republic
[00:16:30] on three occasions at this point, the reason why
[00:16:33] I'm comparing the two and saying that October
[00:16:36] 7th. is the fact that
[00:16:40] you have an entity that needs to stand
[00:16:44] up to the israely regime that needs to stand up to the US in order to
[00:16:47] prevent them from continuing down the path that they have, and that
[00:16:51] responsibility in some sense maybe it was God's
[00:16:54] intention has fallen onto the shoulders the Islamic Republic of
[00:16:58] Iran who has successfully been able to retaliate against the
[00:17:02] brutality of both these regimes a sense the
[00:17:06] bombs that have been drop. on the Islamic Republic and how they have stood up to
[00:17:10] that, we can also look at the way that the Islamic
[00:17:13] Republic has managed the straight of hormos and has pretty
[00:17:17] much executed its discipline on that
[00:17:21] straight. tell us if you agree with that premise
[00:17:25] that october 7th paved the way, which was
[00:17:28] geopolitical earthquake giving Iran that
[00:17:32] responsibility to stand up to the Israel regime and the
[00:17:34] US.
[00:18:07] and national interests, for example, if the people of Gaza
[00:18:11] carried out operation, they did so independently to
[00:18:15] save their own people and save their homeland. if for example, the people of
[00:18:19] Lebanon are fighting against the zionist regime, they are
[00:18:22] fighting for what belongs to them, for their own
[00:18:25] land, and because the land, and because the
[00:18:29] oppression inflicted on their people, this way, but any
[00:18:33] case, wherever and whichever country is subjected to oppression,
[00:18:37] whether? the
[00:18:37] it is member resistance front or not, Iran considers
[00:18:41] it its duty to defend that country. Our religion, our
[00:18:45] ideology commands us to support the oppressed and
[00:18:49] oppose the oppressor. Wherever injustice is taking place in the
[00:18:52] world, we must respond to it. Anywhere in the world, whether the
[00:18:55] oppressed person is Muslim or non-Muslim, whether they
[00:18:59] are our ally or not, whether they are a member the
[00:19:03] resistance front or not, wherever there is an oppressed people.
[00:19:07] we will defend them to the extent of our capabilities, and if
[00:19:11] today we have stood and continued to stand against the United States
[00:19:15] and the zionist regime, it is because we are defending our own
[00:19:18] homeland, not because we are defending Gaza, Lebanon or anywhere
[00:19:22] else. America has oppressed us, America has been oppressing us
[00:19:26] for 73 years. America has invaded our
[00:19:30] country, America has martered our leader. In the 12-day
[00:19:34] war, America martered more than 1,00 of our people.
[00:21:50] to achieve these objectives, we stood our ground, then it came
[00:21:53] up with other objectives, defining a new objective every week, it said i want
[00:21:57] to sees kharg island,
[00:21:59] i want to see the oil wells,
[00:22:01] i want to take the uranium, i want to block iran's missile
[00:22:05] capabilities. it announced 13 objectives,
[00:22:08] which together with the original two, 15
[00:22:12] objectives. we not
[00:22:13] only
[00:22:18] prevented. also put pressure on
[00:22:21] America's throat by closing the straight of hormos.
[00:22:25] Today, our boot is on America's throat, and it can
[00:22:28] feel that suffocation. Today, America is facing
[00:22:32] serious economic problems at home because of shortages of oil and
[00:22:36] energy. We have information about this. America
[00:22:40] has now been forced to draw its oil reserves for
[00:22:43] consumption. Before the war, America had 415 million
[00:22:47] barrels of oil in reserve.
[00:22:58] use of its reserves. In other words, America's fuel is
[00:23:02] running out. America has 400 million miles of
[00:23:05] trucking roots. The largest domestic transportation system
[00:23:09] in the United States is its trucking system. Today, the
[00:23:13] lack of diesel fuel to power these vehicles has created
[00:23:17] major economic problems for the United States. and today
[00:23:21] we have closed the straight of hormos to America, no matter how hard
[00:23:25] America tried to reopen the straight, even for one day, even
[00:23:29] for few hours, it was unable to do so.
[00:23:32] America repeatedly begged other countries to come and help
[00:23:36] it, but they did not, it asked NATO to come to its
[00:23:39] aid, but
[00:23:40] it was unable to do so. Today we have not only defeated America and
[00:23:44] achieving its objectives, but we have also closed off its
[00:23:48] energy lifeline and beyond all this, we have
[00:23:51] imposed strategic defeats on the United
[00:23:54] States, such as what it is as if America spend
[00:23:58] decades investing tens of trillions of dollars, building
[00:24:02] military bases throughout this region, it has bases in every
[00:24:06] country in the region, it built military and combat
[00:24:09] bases, today we have rendered all those bases
[00:24:13] ineffective, some them we destroyed completely, others we
[00:24:17] damaged so severely that...
[00:24:50] in the region was that it wanted to ensure the security of
[00:24:53] energy flows and the safety of maritime
[00:24:56] navigation, that is its stated position. the very
[00:25:00] justification it gives for its presence in this region is that it wants to
[00:25:04] ensure the security of energy flows and maritime shipping. was
[00:25:08] it able to do that? no. now the opposite has happened.
[00:25:12] america's presence has actually created insecurity
[00:25:16] for energy supplies. who closed the straight of hormos? did we?
[00:25:20] close it, america is what caused us to close the straight of
[00:25:24] hormos, before the war, the straight was open,
[00:25:27] anyone could come and go, the United States itself
[00:25:31] had at least 40 warships in the Persian Gulf, but
[00:25:34] now
[00:25:35] it does not have even a single one there,
[00:25:37] it is not even at the mouth the Persian Gulf, it is
[00:25:41] 400 to 500 kilometers away from us, it
[00:25:44] is not even in the northern parts the Pacific Ocean, it is not
[00:25:48] even in the Arabian. see what does that mean? it
[00:25:52] means that what America claimed would provide
[00:25:55] security has turned into the exact opposite. this
[00:25:59] is major victory for us and major defeat for. America
[00:26:03] claimed that it possessed the world's most advanced technology and
[00:26:06] said that this technology was beyond reach, but
[00:26:10] we brought down reach, but we brought down America's advanced
[00:26:14] technology in the form the F-35 aircraft, technology
[00:26:18] under our feet. We destroyed America's advanced
[00:26:21] technology in its patriot missile defense system and
[00:26:25] its other offensive and defensive weapons. This sends two
[00:26:29] messages, one is message to America's rivals. "they should know
[00:26:33] that America's advanced technology is no longer superior and that
[00:26:37] it is no longer beyond reach, it's completely within
[00:26:41] reach. The other is message to America's allies. They should
[00:26:45] know that this advanced technology cannot even defend
[00:26:48] itself, let alone defend these countries. Therefore, we have
[00:26:52] achieved strategic victories against America, while
[00:26:56] America has suffered strategic defeats out our hands
[00:26:59] and it will not be able to recover from them.
[00:27:32] for taking a little longer than expected, not at all, no apologies uh
[00:27:36] accepted here, it was a pleasure to have you. thank you. that does with
[00:27:40] this edition the program of unscripted. we're speaking to sardar hussein mohibi,
[00:27:44] he's a brigadeer general in the IRGC, given the post that he has
[00:27:48] as the deputy for culture and promotion at the office the leaders representative, obviously he has
[00:27:52] lot to say, worth looking at again, some the
[00:27:55] points he made, and also the point that he made about
[00:27:59] the the point that he made about the letter that the... gc
[00:28:03] sent to the Americans uh in order to mentions that Iran has
[00:28:07] and entions that Ivan has and also the
[00:28:10] actions illegal in region um it's something that we will
[00:28:14] definitely dive into more and the place to find that is our
[00:28:17] website all
[00:28:18] thewspressv.co.uk
[00:28:22] for me and the team here at unscripted it's
[00:28:24] goodbye.
[00:29:16] Looks like we're finally done
[00:29:17] here, I wouldn't hold my breath
[00:29:21] just
[00:29:21] yet.
