A senior member of Iran's parliament has vowed that no amount of offensive or defensive capabilities will save Israel from destruction at the hands of its Muslim neighbors. MP Abbasali Arani scoffed at efforts to bolster Israel's northern defenses with Iron Dome and American-made Patriot anti-missile batteries. "The US seeks to prevent the destruction of the cancerous tumor it has created in the region in order to fulfill its own ominous interests," said Arani. The lawmaker stated the Muslim nations of the Middle East remain resolved to destroy the Jewish state, and will eventually succeed. In service to that ultimate goal, Iran is looking to ensure Syria remains a base for hostility, if not open warfare, against Israel.
