Iran establishes 13 response scenarios, classifies the Pentagon as a terrorist organization

Secretary-General of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, Ali Shamkhani, said on Tuesday that Iran has 13 scenarios in response to the assassination of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani.

He noted that revenge from the United States of America for Soleimani's blood, "at least it will be a historic nightmare for America."

Shamkhani said in an interview with the Iranian magazine "Haram" that "America should not have committed the assassination of Soleimani, and it must now bear all the repercussions of that."

Shamkhani added: "We monitor all US bases in the region and all movements in them, and we know that they are on standby." He added, "The Americans know that we are able to target their battleships in the region with our medium and long-range missiles."

Shamkhani said that "there are 19 American bases, including 11 command centers in the region, not far from our eastern and western borders, in addition to 8 American bases north and south of Iran." He added that "Iran has information that the Americans have reduced their tours in the region, and they are stationed currently in their bases. "

Shamkhani stressed that "our response to the assassination of Soleimani will be directed at the American forces in the region." He said: "If they want to keep them in their bases, we will strike the American forces and bases together."

He continued, "The era of American threats is over, and the time has come for Iran to threaten." He added, "For the American forces to know that we will open the gates of hell to them."

 "If America does not remove its forces vertically from the area, we will have to remove their bodies horizontally."

In a related context, the Iranian Shura Council approved a law that classifies all members of the US Department of Defense, the Pentagon, as "terrorist organizations."

The Iranian News Agency "IRNA" reported that 233 deputies approved the broad lines and details of a bill "very urgently", calling for amending the text of the "anti-American action" law.

The law that was approved requires that all members of the US Department of Defense "the Pentagon" and its affiliated companies and institutions, and the leaders and those involved in the killing of the Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, be included in the category of terrorists.

The law also obligated the Iranian government to strengthen the defense structure of the Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guard, by deducting 200 million euros from the reserves of the National Development Fund.
