Iran's top military commander says although the United States spent a total of 7,000 billion dollars in Iraq and Syria, it has achieved nothing while the Islamic Republic gained a lot despite its very low spending in those countries.

Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri made the remarks while addressing a gathering of the Iranian Armed Forces’ senior officials in Tehran on Sunday.

“If Americans spent 7,000 billion dollars in Syria and Iraq and achieved nothing, what we spent [in those countries] was very low, but [we had] all these important and strategic results and achievements due to perseverance, jihad, hard work, good thinking, [as well as good] management and guidance,” Iran's top commander added.

He noted that the Islamic Republic and the resistance front have succeeded in making major breakthroughs in the fight against Takfiri terrorism in the Middle East.

Baqeri emphasized that Daesh has been dismantled in Syria and Iraq and said, "Despite all efforts by enemies, countries that created terrorist [groups] are now standing in line to open their embassies in Syria and Iraq."

Iran's top military commander added that the enemy is increasing its security, cultural and soft threats against Iran in a bid to create a gap between the Iranian nation and the Islamic establishment with the purpose of making people give up their belief in the Islamic Revolution's ideals.

"The enemy is currently taking advantage of new methods like cognitive warfare and development of psychological operations in order to achieve its ominous goals," Baqeri said.

In a reversal from previously stated US policy, President Donald Trump ordered early in December a “full” and “rapid” withdrawal of US troops from Syria as he vowed the United States would no longer be the "policeman of the Middle East."

Late in December, US President Donald Trump defended his decision to withdraw American troops from Syria, saying he is "just doing what I said I was going to do" during his 2016 election campaign.

"... I campaigned on getting out of Syria and other places. Now when I start getting out the Fake News Media, or some failed Generals who were unable to do the job before I arrived, like to complain about me & my tactics, which are working," Trump wrote on Twitter.

In reaction to Trump's decision, Baqeri said the United States is only fueling insecurity in the Persian Gulf through its presence in the strategic region.

Iran would have got nothing,if there would have been no US invasion into M.E.

 

[Tokhme khar]

we had no plans either. Mr Saddam was happy in his Iraq and Mr Assad was doing the same in his country. We didn't want to change the landscape. Iran can't be blamed for total US failures. All Iranians can do is have a good laugh.

Iraqi gubment runs its own petroleum industry, even during the US occupation. The Americans couldn't steal it. The revenue from oil sales goes to the Iraqi's.

Once all goon troops are kicked out of Iraq and Syria and Afghanistan, then the goons got nothing.

They did eliminate this, which was the goal:

The goal was simply not to loot, but to impoverish. Amerikans spend 20X that which was stolen, so barely any return on the 'investment' of murdering 3 -5 million Middle Easterners and other Muslims. The whole goal is to keep Muslims fighting and dying and disorganized and weak and uncertain. To make the jews in occupied Palestine fell 'safe' to attack and warmonger and kill Palestinians and start more wars. The west loves their violence and terrorism.

trump is doing this to Iran and wants to do it to China. If any nation gets uppity and independent, like Turkey, the banksters will try to cripple their economy through currency wars and threatening economic recessions, like trump the terrorist threatened Turkey.

you know why they leaving syria and afghanistan. because it is agreement between russian and usa .. usa will keep iraq and russian and iran will keep syria..pakistan will look after afghanistan. i know here many will differ. why thy keeping iraq. iraq is 3 or 4th oil producer in the world..and fromafghanistan they have smuggled drugs and with that they covered up their experience. you guys don’t know how this war business works

 

[zectech]

you know why they leaving syria and afghanistan.

I doubt they will leave Syria and Afghanistan. This is to buy time, to pretend to deliver on promises, and not do anything. If they do leave, watch out Iran or China.

There was nothing to steal from Iraq or Syria. Iraq was under sanctions for the last 25 years. Syria was a poor country to begin with. Only historical artifacts stolen from Syria and sold around the black markets of the EU. Most are already recovered. In Iraq's case there was the oil fields, but they were in dilapidated condition. You can only steal so much oil, as you need tankers and infrastructure to carry it out. By 2005 or so a Shia gubment was already in place so all losses/ theft was stopped around that time. By 2014, the Iraqi's had asked the US to leave. Now only 2000 US troops work as overpaid security guards/ renta cops in Iraq. Largely confined to their bases/ embassy/ diplomatic security, under the watchful eye of the IRGC.

P.S. We are not talking about Libya here. Read the title again.
