Iran and Saudi Arabia one step closer to war “You know the might and place of the Islamic republic"

Iran and Saudi Arabia one step closer to war after Tehran warns rival not to mess with ‘the might of the Islamic republic’ as ballistic missile crisis escalates

The comments came after Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman accused Iran of delivering missiles to Yemeni rebels for use against targets in his kingdom.

IRANIAN President Hassan Rouhani warned Saudi Arabia it will achieve nothing by threatening the “might” of his country as the war of words between the rivals reaches breaking point.

“You know the might and place of the Islamic republic. People more powerful than you have been unable to do anything against the Iranian people,” he said today.

“The United States and their allies have mobilised all their capabilities against us and achieved nothing,” he added.

Rouhani appeared to be alluding to the Iran-Iraq war of 1980-88, in which revolutionary Iran successfully resisted an invasion by Saddam Hussein’s regime supported by the West.

His comments came after Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman accused Iran of delivering missiles to Yemeni rebels for use against targets in his kingdom in an act of “direct military aggression”.

Iran strongly denied supplying any missiles to the rebels saying that it would have been impossible to do so in any case in the face of a Saudi-led air and sea blockade.

Rouhani reiterated that Iran wanted a peaceful settlement of the conflict between the rebels and the Saudi-backed Yemeni government and of other wars around the region that have placed it at loggerheads with Riyadh.

“We want the welfare and development of Yemen, Iraq and Syria, and of Saudi Arabia too. There are no other paths forward than friendship, brotherhood and mutual assistance,” he said.

“If you think that Iran is not your friend and that the United States and the Zionist regime (Israel) are, you are making a strategic and analytical error.”

He spoke as the US also pointed the finger at Iran accusing the country of supplying rebels with the ballistic missile which struck the Saudi Arabian capital last week.

The Saudi Arabian military shot down a missile fired at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, according to local reports.

The White House says it condemns the Tehran’s activities and stands with Saudi Arabia against its aggression and “blatant” violations of international law.

It says missile systems were not present in Yemen before the civil war there, alleging that Iran must have provided them.

The statement also urges the United Nations to review evidence that Iran is perpetuating the war in Yemen to further its regional ambitions.

The remarks came one day after Saudi Arabia’s crown prince said that a ballistic missile fired at the kingdom by Yemeni rebels was a “direct military aggression by the Iranian regime”.

A Saudi-led military coalition has been at war with the Iranian-backed Houthis for more than two years.

Iran and Saudi Arabia one step closer to war

Correct.

Saudi/US/Israel axis vs Iran alone.

 

[war&peace]

KSA will be a fool to attack Iran and that will be the beginning of the end of this monarchy. KSA is totally unstable internally and no amount of advanced weapons can protect them from their own internal woos.

This crown-prince has pushed his country towards a total chaos due to his avarice for power, arrogance and lack of mental faculty (jahaliyet). This has repercussions for the whole region. He should stop towing zionist policies that will pave the way for greater Israel.

lets keep Israel out of this shall we ? cause whatever is happening in ME is directly the responsibility of the Arabs .. as for Iran and KSA fighting a war, i don't see that happening .. both countries would never face each other rather than indulging into some proxy wars ..

but in case of war, the result will be a draw to best of my knowledge .. Iran enjoys a good inventory of Cruise and Ballistic Missiles but its Air force , Navy and Land forces are not equipped with modern weapons and system , specially Iranian Air force need modern fights in hundreds .on the other Hand Saudi's have one of the best Fighters in the Region , and they been training with US, Turkey, Pakistan and other Western Allies so their Pilots are not newbies .. KSA Air force will dominate the skies and even in terms of Land system KSA has very modern hardware compared to Iranian's , but if the turmoil reach within KSA borders and Yemen and Lebnon also declare war, than it will be hard for KSA to sustain a war on multiple fronts . and with KSA security is threatened ... we all know Pakistan would have to jump in cause we can not just stand at the corner while Mecca and Madina is in danger ..

@Khafee your thoughts brother ?

Well mate, unlike you, I'm not jumping to any conclusions and I hope that no such war ever happens because it will have repercussions for all. But current regime in KSA is making mistakes over mistakes and right now it is highly unstable internally with many princes being jailed over fictitious charges so it will be the most ill-time for KSA to go on war. Having advanced weapons alone does not make a military the most powerful rather it is the mix of weapons, strategic planing, training and determination of the soldiers on the ground that wins the war. If it wasn't so then today USA would been ruling Afghanistan and there would be Talibans. Targeting and killing innocent children in Yemen is one thing but fighting a trained and established power like Iran is another.
I wish that sanity prevails and both sides step back and let the temperature come down.

first of all it wasn't a judgement but a reality check , I have no hate for Iran but you simply can not deny that KSA enjoy much sophisticate weapons and Iranian military is mostly outdated equipment . as for Training ,Strategic Planning and determination all of these things are there in KSA too, so please don't act like a kid that Saudi's will fight with less determination for their country than Iran ..
and as you compare a Asymmetric/Guerrilla Warfare with a conventional Warfare , i rest my case here ..
have a good day.

I agree with you

Saudi Arabia has advanced military equiptment while Iran has outdated military equiptment

Bro, talking about conventional war, Iran has a decade long experience of war with Iraq, can you tell me when was the last time KSA went on war any large country?

 

[mangekyo]

If KSA is so strong and Iran is so weak, tell me how Iran, with its outdated weapon, being surrounded by American military bases and hostile Arab nations have managed to dominate ME for decades?

The Arab world has a population 5 times bigger than Irans, and more than 10 times its land mass. Still, Iran is KSAs worst nightmare. Why is that?

How come the mighty Arab coalition struggles with tiny Yemen. While Iranian trained Hezbollah kicked out Israel? an achievemt 8 Arab countries combined couldn't make.

When Baghdad was falling, and the Iraqi army collapsed, was it the Saudis that armed, trained and organised the strongest force and backbone of the new Iraqi army? Or was it Iran?

When ISIS was knocking at Barzanis doors and Arbil was minutes from falling, was it not Iran that came to the rescue of the Kurds?

Do I need to mention KSAs and Arab worlds financial support to Saddam during Iran-Iraq war? The war that bankrupted Iraq and forced Saddam to invade Kuwait. While Iran is now stronger than ever.

How many times did they beg Israel and U.S.A to use their land and airspace to attack Iran? If KSA is so strong with all their sophisticated weapons. How come they cant gather their 430 million fellow Arabs to attack tiny Iran with its outdated weapons? Isn't that what the failed Arab coalition is about anyways?

Lets watch this from Saudi Perspective. Terrorist-Iran is meddling in Arab affairs by exporting its revolution and fake religion. Iran is dominating in Iraq and Lebanon and are intervening in Syria. Iran is funding, arming and training terrorist groups and spreading sectarian violence in the Arab world.

So why doesn't mighty Pro-US Saudi Arabia with its mighty Arab coalitions. 430 million fellow Arabs, 22 Arab states including all the GCC countries surrounding Iran with advanced and sophisticated up to date American weapons and military hardware, do anything? The short answer is because they cant.

When we all know that Saudis have latest and the most advanced warfare tech but it takes bravery, commitment and well trained military to fight a war. What could their Soldiers do to the poorly armed Houthis? Saudis received absolute humiliation. Being feared they formed the drama to form so-called Islamic Military Alliance and hired Raheel Sharif to protect their monarchy. What did Taliban have against US? The Master of Military. But what matters is Cause, Commitment, Terrain and Understandings of the kind of War you're going to be in. My brother went to Saudi as a part of contingent and was surprised to see that even Saudi NCOs are given Air Conditioned Tents in the middle of Desert Posts. You expect them to fight Iranians who are experienced in all kind of Warfare?

 

[fitpOsitive]

This war will be followed by Sanctions on Saudia. Then again, same things happened to Iraq, and in last, Saidia will be destroyed. Iran will be there, unharmed, aiming for new Islamic country. Again USA and Israel will side with that new Islamic country....will meet again the same fate. This deception will continue till some country really manges to destroy this satanic franchise in Asia, Israel.

 

[Qutb-ud-din Aybak]

Iran is lying. it is supplying weapons to rebels.
almost whole world have now proofs.

When Allah-u Azimushshan wants to punish a nation, HE first takes away their Akl. The KSA/UAE leadership is going through such a phase. The higher the elevation the harder the fall!!!!! According to the Turkish analysts the following scenarios are possible:

• KSA/UAE might want to take revenge on Qatar and teach a lesson to Iran by attacking Lebanon. They might outsource the job to the Egyptians.
• Direct attack on Qatar is also a possibility, which has the potential to draw Turkey into the conflict.
• Attack on Lebanon and/or Iran will induce massive retaliation.
• Shia population centers in Arab countries might get activated.
• Even the Haremain may be targeted to put all the Muslims into utter shame.

Bottom-line: no matter what happens any move from the KSA/UAE will end up their becoming the biggest losers!!! Whoever goes for such misadventure will be decimated and lose both power and land!!!!

The India people support KSA in will and prayer.
