IRAN INTERNATIONAL -- Iran will enter a war with the United States if Israel launches a new attack on the Islamic Republic, a senior Iranian official and former chief commander of the Revolutionary Guard said on Sunday.

"The Zionists (Israel) are seeking to try their luck against Iran once again," Major General Mohsen Rezaei told the state TV.

“However, events will soon happen inside Israel that will make this impossible,” he said. “It is not expedient to talk about them now.”
