World ‘very happy’ with Iran’s Operation True Promise: Kenyan lawmaker

A member of the Kenyan parliament says the whole world is “very happy” with Iran's retaliatory strikes on the Israeli-occupied territories as the Islamic Republic confronted the Zionist-Western hegemony.

Farah Maalim Mohamed, a member of the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya, said in an interview with Press TV on Monday that Tehran proved to the world that the “American-Zionist-Western colonial hegemony" cannot simply do what it wants with impunity.

Maalim Mohamed said Iran is able to defend itself and its allies and stand up to the Zionist enemy and the West which have gotten used to bullying the rest of the world.

“They think that they can kill anybody that they want to kill, and bomb anybody that they want to bomb and we have no right to protest,” the Kenyan lawmaker said.

“I’m happy, I’m very happy and I think that the whole world is happy except the Western crazy hegemony… They for the first time see that a section of the world with a civilization much older than them is standing up to them.”

Maalim Mohamed stressed, “If you think you can get away with it, you cannot get away with it, and the world is not going to watch you bully or punish the world the way you did before and you will see a consequence.”

Maalim Mohamed said the world is in a position to react and countries like Iran, Russia and China are going to tell them that “they cannot cross the line.”

The parliamentarian said, “I think more than eight billion people in the world are very happy with what Iran did, and I hope more countries will join the rank of Iran. Everybody is very happy.”

In a multi-pronged attack, dubbed Operation True Promise, Iran launched late on April 13 hundreds of drones and missiles at the occupied territories in response to the regime's aggression on the Iranian diplomatic facilities in the Syrian capital of Damascus on April 1.

The Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s embassy compound in Damascus had killed two generals of the Quds Force of IRGC, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and General Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, as well as five of their accompanying officers.

The Israeli regime's aggression on the Iranian diplomatic facilities in Syria drew widespread condemnation from the international community.
