Iranian Official: We Created the “Swamp” in Iraq in Order to Prevent America from Reaching Iran

Tehran University sociologist Dr. Hossein Kachoian, a member of Iran’s Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution, said in a November 25, 2019 interview on Ofogh TV (Iran) that those who are unable to turn Iran’s Internet into intranet, or who are preventing this from taking place, are traitors because they are leaving Iran completely exposed to the enemy. He also said that the United States attacked Iraq and Afghanistan as part of a strategy of surrounding Iran and ultimately striking it and that the “swamp” in Iraq that “swallowed” the U.S. had been prepared by Iran in order to foil America’s plans.
