Former IRGC Commander-in-Chief Mohsen Rezaee: All of Syria’s Aircraft, Infrastructure, Military Research Facilities Are Being Bombed – Even Hitler Didn’t Do This; the U.S. Has Prepared 11,000 ISIS Members in Northern Syria to Attack Iraq

In a December 10, 2024 address to a conference of Iranian air and aviation industries, former IRGC Commander-in-Chief Mohsen Rezaee discussed recent developments in Syria. He stated that Syria is being attacked from three directions: by rebels and terrorists, the Israelis, and the Americans, with all of Syria's aircraft, infrastructure, and military research facilities destroyed. Rezaee remarked, "Even Hitler did not do this." He also accused the U.S. of arming and training ISIS operatives, suggesting that future attacks on Mosul and Tikrit in Iraq are possible. Rezaee warned that Israel and the U.S.'s actions would have far-reaching repercussions for the region and that silence today would only embolden further aggression. He argued that the U.S. is using Israel to infiltrate other countries in pursuit of its imperialist agenda, noting that Israel is currently involved in conflicts with six countries. The address was aired on SNN.ir (Iran).

Mohsen Rezaee: "In the past two weeks, the rebels and the terrorists have attacked from the north, Israel has advanced up to twenty kilometers from Damascus from the south, and the Americans are bombing from the east of Syria. The Syrians and their country are attacked from three directions. In the past 48 hours, 250 locations in Syria were attacked. All of Syria's aircraft were destroyed. All of Syria's helicopters were blown up. They attacked all of Syria's infrastructure. All of Syria's military research facilities were bombed. Even Hitler did not do this. Now, they are preparing to attack Iraq.

"In northern Syria, there is a military base where 11,000 ISIS members live with their families. For the past four years, the Americans have armed and trained them, so there is a chance that in coming months, they will attack Mosul and Tikrit [in Iraq].

[…]

"This plan that Israel and the U.S. have started will have repercussions for many countries in the region.

[…]

"Silence today will have grave consequences tomorrow. It makes these aggressors determined to continue their crimes and genocides. America 2.0 sends Israel to infiltrate these countries [on its behalf] as part of its international imperialism. Israel has confrontations in six countries so far: Yemen, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, strikes in Iraq in the past, and two attacks on our country."
