Ali Shamkhani, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, tweets a message to Israel in Hebrew.
“The end of every occupation is a humiliating dismissal,” he writes. “The fate that befell the United States in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq is also the unavoidable fate of Israel.”
סופו של כל כיבוש הוא פיטורים משפילים. הגורל שפקד את ארצות הברית בווייטנאם, #אפגניסטן ועיראק הוא גם גורלה הבלתי נמנע של ישראל.

Last week, Shamkhani tweeted in Hebrew about Iran’s talks with Russia to join the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
