Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, currently head of Iran’s Supreme National Defense University, said that the Houthi terrorists in Yemen are inspired by Iran’s so-called Islamic Revolution and the thoughts of its founder. He added that their terror attacks against legitimate authorities in Yemen come under the instructions of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Speaking at a ceremony commemorating Iranian commanders and students killed in Yemen, Vahidi stressed that Iran will defy international pressure and will not curb its ballistic missile program. The former chief commander of Iran’s Quds Force is wanted by Argentina for plotting the deadly 1994 bombing of a Jewish place in Buenos Aires. “...
