Iran military officials (R to L); Gholamhossein Gheibparvar, Hossein Salami, Ataollah Salehi, Ayoub Soleimani, and Mehdi Rabbani, on March 24, 2019.
Iranian military commanders have been talking big since Friday evening, threatening the United States and Saudi forces in the region, warning against even limited attacks against Iran, boasting about Tehran's military capabilities and mocking the United States for selling a defense system to Saudi Arabia that didn't work.
Some commanders such as IRGC commander Hossein Salami spoke at least twice. Some others such as army commander Abdolrahim Mousavi made a bizarre claim on national TV that Washington has sent a message asking Iran to allow U.S. forces to attack a limited number of targets and not respond. It appears from his words that Mousavi was referring to when Iran downed a U.S. drone and President Donald Trump decided not to respond.
One commander even promised a joint military exercise with Russian and Chinese naval forces in the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman "soon" without giving an actual date, apparently to show that Iran has its own allies to counter the U.S.-led coalition in the region although Moscow and Beijing were not observed to support Iran in the Persian Gulf tensions particularly as any conflict could adversely affect the flow of oil to Chinese industries.
