Iran launches new threats against Israel

The commander of the Islamic Republic's Revolutionary Guards said on Wednesday that Iran's missiles are able to fully reach Israel. "Our strategic calculations show that if the Zionist regime wants to make the smallest move against our interests, either independently or with America, in the shortest time all the territories under the Zionist regime's control will become unsafe," Guards commander-in-chief Mohammad Ali Jafari said.

The Guards are an ideologically motivated arm of Iran's military with an independent command structure to the regular armed forces. They have their own land, sea and air units. "The Israelis know that if they take action against Iran definitely the capabilities that the Islamic world and especially the Shi'ite world has in the region would deliver a hard blow to them," Jafari said.
