Quds Force Commander Qasem Soleimani: Americans Are Cowards; Brought Diapers for Their Soldiers in Iraq

IRGC Quds Force Commander General Qasem Soleimani visited the forces fighting in Al-Bukamal, Syria, and told them that the U.S. forces, despite their numbers and capabilities, are cowards. "When they arrived in Iraq, they brought diapers for their soldiers, so that they could urinate in them when scared," he said. "Our people is ready for martyrdom, and therefore, deserves victory," said Soleimani. His remarks were posted online by the "Syrian Army's Allies' Operation Room" on November 26.

 

Qasem Soleimani: Why does God make the Iranian people victorious? Why does God give victory to the Islamic Republic today? I believe that the victories become bigger and that their scope increases every day. Neither America nor Saudi Arabia can harm this people. God wants this people to be victorious. They are nothing next to God's will, because our people is ready for martyrdom, and therefore, deserves victory.

Look at the American forces today. They are more than one million strong. But despite their numbers and their capabilities, they are cowards. When they arrived in Iraq, they brought diapers for their soldiers, so that they could urinate in them when scared. You, on the other hand, have achieved victory with light weapons, Why? Because you are willing to make sacrifices.
