Iran's potent military wing, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, today declared its 'full obedience' to the country's third supreme leader, named today by the 88-member Assembly of Experts. In a statement aired on state-affiliated IRIB television, the guard described Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, the second son of its recently slain supreme leader, as 'his eminence' and 'the fully qualified jurist, the young thinker and the most knowledgeable in political and social matters.
' 'The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, as a soldier and powerful arm of the guardianship, while supporting the decision of the Assembly of Experts, declares its readiness for full obedience and self-sacrifice in carrying out the divine commands of the guardian jurist of the time, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, and for safeguarding the values of the Islamic Revolution and protecting the precious legacy of the two leaders of the Revolution, Imam Khomeini and Imam Khamenei,' it said. The guard also vowed to continue to fight the United States and Israel until Iran is victorious. 'With glorious and epic participation in defence of the guardianship,' it said, 'the system and the Islamic Revolution, the nation should continue on the path towards completing Iran’s victories over arrogant powers, dictatorships, monarchies and Zionists until the realisation of the new Islamic civilisation and the appearance of the great sun of guardianship.'
