Iranian Regime Mouthpiece: "All The Zionists Living In Occupied Palestine Are Armed Plunderers – Even Their Children Are Trained From A Very Young Age In Training Camps To Terrorize The Palestinian People"
On October 10, 2023, the Iranian regime mouthpiece Kayhan published an editorial stating: "[Iran-backed] resistance groups have announced: 'We wanted the enemy and its settlers to leave our occupied land peacefully. This did not happen, so war is the only way.' All the Zionists living in occupied Palestine are armed plunderers. Even their children are trained from a very young age in training camps to terrorize the Palestinian people, and they are a tool for the establishment of a fake government and for the occupation of Palestine. Israel is one big [military] base. Hence, anybody living in the base [i.e. Israel] is not a civilian. They are soldiers, and in Israel there is no such thing as a 'civilian'!"[1]
