In a broadcasted interview on Iran’s TV, an IRGC commander outraged viewers who responded with negative feedback. Hajizadeh was bluffing with abundant irrational embellishments.
Amir Ali Hajizadeh has been the commander of the Aerospace force of the IRGC thugs since 2009. Many of the IRGC thugs are radicals, see “ Qaani is a radical conservative hardliner” However, he endeavors to draw a redline around IRGC’s missile program.
In February 2023, he asserted Iran’s regime had developed a cruise missile with a range of 1650 km (1025 miles) and threatened to assassinate former US President Donald Trump and former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. ‘We hope we can kill Trump, Pompeo, McKenzie (former CENTCOM chief) and the military commanders who gave the order to kill Soleimani’. Tehran has repeatedly vowed to take revenge for the slaying of Soleimani in January 2020.
The IRGC thug is on the radar for sending this message. On 24 June 2019, the US Treasury sanctioned him, freezing all his assets. Then, on 29 September 2022, Canada added his name to the Canadian sanctions list.
Hajizadeh is not on his own in this matter. Heretofore, Iran’s intelligence Minister sent a clear signal to the Biden Administration. Most of the time, radical officials reveal their ideology. After all, analytically, the destructive ideology of Khomeinism is based on several devastating and aggressive approaches.
Factually, Hajizadeh played a part in the crime of shooting down the Boeing 737-800 which led to killing all 176 passengers and crew. Deliberately and without taking any responsibility, IRGC crushed the plane with 2 surface-to-air missiles. Without doubt, as a war criminal who never tells the truth, Hajizadeh shoud be punished for this crime and put on trial.
The shades of grey in the analysis of facts on the ground in IRGC, suggest that the interests of the US and Israel will be in removing this vicious wolf from the theatre. It is time to let this extremist criminal fade into the dustbin of history.
A couple of months ago, he threatened that Israel’s existence is domed for termination and that Iran will expedite its demise.
Hajizadeh is one of the radical warmongers of the mullah’s regime who seeks instability in the region. He has ramped up his rhetoric against Israel and US, if regional war breaks out. The Intelligence agencies of the US know that Hajizadeh would like to strike US bases in the Middle East and start a full-fledged war with the US. Indisputably, He is responsible for firing dozens of missiles at US bases in Iran.
Hajizadeh, research shows, is responsible for supplying and weaponizing Yemen’s Houthi rebels to launch drone attacks on the oil facilities in Saudi Arabia. Alarmingly, Hajizadeh’s doctrine is equipping the Shia Transnational Terrorist Network in the Middle East with an effective rocket warhead and missile arsenal. Today, IRGC enjoys a huge armory of drones, of numerous sizes and capabilities. most of the Iran-backed proxies are using these operative military supplies.
The CIA and Mossad charged him of a variety of lethal attacks across the Middle East. He has a special capability for creating tensions and wants to take up Soleimani’s mantle with his vicious personality. growing in stature internally and internationally. Most of the mullah regime officials are foe to all, friend to none.
Hajizadeh, the godfather of IRGC;s missile Program, is behind dozens of terrorist attacks in the region employing UAVs and missiles. For that reason, the name of this former sniper of Special Unit in IRGC, has been on the lips of Israeli intelligence officials. When he was in Syria, the American intelligence agents started his role in IRGC’s missile program, as a major Khomeinist figure who plays a critical role in IRGC air force. Specifically, he says “Israel must be wiped off the face of the earth”.
Hajizadeh, with no charisma, is a conservative figure with financial scandals. He has no desire to make any deal with the West or practice diplomacy. Mentally and ideologically, this hardline Anti-Israel , Anti-West and Anti-US commander of IRGC has zero tolerance for diplomatic deals. He loves to fire missiles beneath or beside urban areas. From Hajizadeh’s point of view, all missiles should be ready to fire! He has close ties with SVR – Russian Intelligence- and he was behind the alliance with Putin in the war with Ukraine.
Most of the US intelligence community is studying his manner and how he works. Specifically, Mossad and the CIA are concentrating on Raisi and new malign activities of the Quds Force, but Hajizadeh is a threat for US national security, not only Israe's .Hajizadeh dreams of starting a war with the US. Remember: In 2019, he ordered to shoot down a US RQ-4A Global Hawk over the strait of Hormuz by using a surface-to-air missile.
