Iran’s top general says the current course of developments at regional and global levels indicate that the Zionist regime is nearing its collapse and the global arrogance is losing its power while the Islamic Republic is getting stronger.
Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri made the remark on Monday, saying, “Last year was a tumultuous juncture during which [Iranian] Armed Forces took major steps to boost their defensive power and readiness.”
The Iranian general added, “What one sees at global and regional levels … is [indicative of] the fact that global and regional developments are weakening the global arrogance and pushing the Zionist regime toward collapse…. On the opposite, the power of our country and the resistance axis is increasing.”
Baqeri emphasized that many American thinkers and even politicians have acknowledged this fact and “even the president of this fake regime has admitted time and again that Israel is on the verge of collapse… This is exactly our Leader (Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei)’s promise that they will not see the next 25 years.”
In February, Israeli President Isaac Herzog warned of what he said was imminent conflict and even potential bloodshed, saying Tel Aviv was on the verge of “societal and constitutional collapse.”
His remark came as the occupied territories have been the scene of massive protests for the past 13 consecutive weeks over a package of controversial and highly unpopular “legal reforms” proposed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The protests have been a weekly fixture since late December, when the prime minister announced his intention to implement the changes.
Netanyahu claims that the alleged reforms are meant to redraw the power balance between the regime’s executive branch and the judiciary by preventing the Supreme Court from striking down the former’s decisions. They also seek to give the lawmakers a bigger say in the committee that selects the judges.
Netanyahu’s opponents see his cabinet’s drive to pass the legislation on the so-called reforms as a threat to the Supreme Court’s independence, describing it as a “legal coup.” They also accuse Netanyahu of trying to use the reforms to quash possible judgments against him as he is on trial in three corruption cases.
Following weeks of protests, which at times got violent, the hawkish Israeli prime minister finally accepted to delay his infamous judicial reforms plan.
