Iran lawmaker hopes for US ground war, asks ‘where is Trump’s army?’
Iranian lawmaker Mohammad Saleh Jokar said he hopes the war expands into a ground conflict so that American soldiers are killed, and vowed that the outcome will be decided on the battlefield, not through diplomacy.
“I hope this war turns into a ground war so we witness the burial of American soldiers in the Persian Gulf region,” Jokar told Didban Iran.
Referring to US President Donald Trump, he added: “America, which Trump boasted about and said we have the strongest army in the world — where is it now?”
He said Iran has not yet used its “new tactics and technologies” in the fight against the United States and Israel, adding: “We will determine the final result on the battlefield, diplomacy is no longer enough.”
