Ali Motahari: Israel will attack Iran again if ...

According to the political service of Saed News analytical news website, Ali Motahari in an interview with ISNA, referring to the necessity of unity among the nation, officials, and the armed forces against the enemies' efforts to sow discord, stated: One of the factors in the enemy’s defeat in the 12-day war was the national unity of the Iranian people. Now, one of the deterrent factors against another attack by the Zionist regime on Iran is national unity. In other words, national unity, alongside the preparedness and strength of the armed forces, prevents the enemy from attacking Iran again.

Division inside paves the way for another attack by the enemy
He further stated: Therefore, in order for our enemies to be able to launch another attack on Iranian soil, they must first destroy national unity inside the country and create division within. Naturally, this division will affect the morale and determination of the armed forces, and in such a case the ground will be prepared for an enemy attack. Now that the country is in difficult conditions, in order to prevent another attack by the United States and Israel, we must strengthen these two factors. It is natural that the enemy takes steps in the opposite direction.

Political differences of opinion are inevitable
The Deputy Speaker of the 10th Parliament emphasized: The reality is that political differences of opinion are inevitable and always exist. Also, differences of opinion in economic issues and matters related to foreign policy always exist. Parties and political activists have different views, but these different views should not lead to insults. Unfortunately, we sometimes witness individuals resorting to defamation and insults to respond to their rivals, which is not right.

IRIB has an influential role in continuing or weakening national unity
He further stressed: Such behaviors may appear as division, and those who observe our society from outside may feel that society has fallen into division. But if these views are discussed and dialogue takes shape, not only do the opinions become closer to each other, but also no division will occur. IRIB has an influential role in continuing or weakening national unity. Unfortunately, regarding the statement of the Reformist Front, IRIB did not behave well. Although I believe that in that statement some points were made that were incorrect and some were not timely to be raised, there was no necessity to attack it in such a strange manner and to deal with it with insult and humiliation.
