The notion that the Zionist regime of Israel will not be existing 25 years from now does not mean that it would have a full time span of 25 years to live, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi said on Monday, warning the Zionist regime that any mistake would raze Haifa and Tel Aviv to the ground.

Israel should remain silent and count down the days to its death, because any minor mistake would lead to its demise as fast as lightning, the general added.

Back in December 2016, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei expressed high optimism that the Israeli regime will perish within the next quarter of a century.

“The Zionist regime – as we have already said – will cease to exist in the next 25 years if there is a collective and united struggle by the Palestinians and the Muslims against the Zionists,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with the head of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, Ramadan Abdullah Shalah.

As for any move against the Islamic Republic, Ayatollah Khamenei has frequently warned the adversaries that they would face a “harsh reaction” in case of any offense against Iran, stressing that the era of hit and run is over.

“The enemies should know that if they come up with the idea of an act of aggression against Iran, they will face a harsh reaction,” Imam Khamenei said in May.

The Leader reiterated that the era of hit and run has ended, reminding the enemies that they might begin a war against Iran, but the decision to end it would not be theirs.
