january the 3rd marks, the fourth anniversary of the assassination of the late iranian general assam saleimani by the us. here's what people in kashmir had to tell her correspondent chant about the lieutenant general's assassination. the personality of the late marter general qasim sulaymani needs no introduction. he destroyed the tyranical israeli-american plots against humanity which came in the form of daesh. he destroyed all those plots and save the entire human race from those barbarians. it is the death anniversary of the major general qasim sulaimani who was martered by a us drone attack and was very powerful. military leader of the iran and who was a supporter of resistance in the west asia and was a strong supporter of the palestinian cause. it has been his death which has today we are seeing that gaza strip is being bombarded by the forces and the people are being killed innocent people are being killed and it is the death if he would have been alive there would have been a difference of. the retaliation and the support given by him all along his life to the palestinian cause. we con

in praising the late iranian general said that. terrorism fight would have failed without general saleimani, so talk to us about the importance and the stature that general soni had in the resistance front, specifically when we're looking at at ensuring stability and security in the west asia region following the defeat of daesh, well i think people uh in the west would be surprised to hear you say that general sman. played a role in the defeat of daesh, because of course in the west it's believed that uh daish is this terrible muslim extremist group which is in alliance with uh other muslim extremist groups which they would refer to iran as and they would see the west is being engaged in syria for example and in iraq and to some extent in other places uh in opposition to daesh, so people don't understand the reality of the situation which is... that sammani was amongst the leading people who led the fight against daesh and actually um defeated them in iraq and indeed in syria, when of course uh at the same time the west was, although technically supposed to be fighting daesh, was in fact o

now so uh we also uh with our guests will like to focus on uh the issue of how uh reveared general saleimani is specifically when we look back to to the funeral uh that took place four years ago, the the millions of people uh that turned up to participate in his funeral procession, and now we can see that people are flocking in their numbers yet again on this day to uh to commemorate and also to mourn his assassination, but also to to commemorate the values that he stood for and the the position. and the icon, the anti-terror icon that this individual was in the region uh and beyond uh, but uh uh, before we get to that issue uh, i want to address this question to professor yagan, which was what our guest in vancouver, miss kates was um alluding to, and that was uh the the goals and uh the aims that the united states had um in this assassination uh that that took place out the baghdad international airport, the question is, would you agree with miss kates that those goals were not achieved? now, going back to the initial days, when the assassination took place, i recall a leader of of the pal

iranians commemorate the force assassination anniversary of top anti-terror icon, general saleimani, who was killed by the us in iraq. you're watching press tv news, a live broadcast from terran, i'm your host b, it's good to have you with this, now it's almost three months into israel genocidal war on gaza, the regime's war playings and artillery keep pounding the blockaded territory, health officials in gaza say that israeli forces have dropped more than dozen bombs across gaza in the past day, killing some 150 civilians and that... 15 people who were killed in the bombardment of residential building in the city of deral balla in central gaza. the israel military also carried out a missile strike on rafa in the south and shell the jabalia refugee camp in the north. it's intensified attacks and an around refugee camps including nusirat almazi and alb. 22185 palestinians have been killed since the us isready genocide early october. according to un figures 90% of the god. population has been displaced, despite global demands for seasfired, israel ministry says that the onslot is expec

sulaimani was commander of the quod force tells you the centrality of the palestiny. for to general saleimani, he quickly opened the palestinian and the lebanese resistance files and led essentially the coordination between the kuds force and all the palestinian factions across the board, so both the islamic, so that hamas and jihad, as well as the left wing, so the popular front for the liberation of palestine, the general committee etc. in a way in which they were coordinated and they weren't separated. stated that um, any palestiny faction under the title of requiring weapons for... existence haj kasim did not show fault in shipping those weapons and also the prisoners um was file that was considered of most priority so you had an occupation soldier was captured as part of a prisoner exchange uh a thousand palestinian prisoners were released um one of whom was actually the current hamas leader in gaza um and then if we look further to 2008 when operation castled occurred uh this war essentially presented an opportunity to experiment those resistance capabilities that began in 2000, that wa

mr. uh schlanger sir i want to get your perspective uh and your views on the legacy that general saleimani has left behind as an anti-terror icon? i think to start with, it's worth noting the absolute insanity of us policy, which is typified by the assassination of general salemani. the idea behind it was the intent of people around the at the time president trump to prevent there from being any kind of global. peace movement which would overturn the imperial policy of the us and the united kingdom and nato, and general sulemani represented a unique figure in standing up and defending the interests, not even just of of muslims, but of oppressed people around the world, and the decision by trump to carry out the assassination showed the foolishness of of the us establishment thinking. years of colonialism against the global south. let's cross over to miss krishna swami in st. petersburg, and i want to get your... the same uh question for you, your perspective on the legacy that uh general suleimani has left behind as an anti-terror icon and as a resistance uh figure and icon as well in the

not tolerate the people's love and enthusiasm for visiting the resting place of um marder general saleimani, iranian president ibrahim raisy also vowed that the perpetrators will pay heavy price for this horrible crime and yet again um we see iranians are expressing grief over the deadly carmont attack by holding rallies across the country rallies similar to the one that we're seeing right now and caron are also taking place in other cities as well. also um, national day of morning has been announced in honor and commemorating uh those that were killed in this reprehensible terrorist attack. on that note, iranians are expressing grief over the deadly carmon terror attack by holding rallies across the country, people from all walks of life of it the streets of kermon, carmon shaw karage, ardabil, gorgon and other cities to express. their condolences to the families of the victims. they called on the authorities to bring the perpetrators of the crime to justics. demonstrators chanted anti-israelian anti-american solgans for what they called a terror plot hatched by iran's enemies. us and the

scheduled to actually address the lebanese people on the occasion of the assassination of iran's general saleimani, that's the fourth anniversary, so it looks like that also this recent assassination should also be one of the topics definitely that uh the hez would be speaking about. definitely, this is what everybody is waiting for, many had said that there are rumors that hazbullah secretary general had actually annulled the speech or annulled the entire ceremony as a whole, it seems that no in protest of course to this hazballah will continue to hold that ceremony and remember of course the significant role of haj qasim sulaimani which is on the on the the the mouns of everybody, everyone is talking today about the role of hajqasim sulaimani. 'when they see the operation of a flood and they see the efforts of the resistance inside gaza and the west bank, and so it will definitely be point in hisballah speech, if not the most significant issue that he will be talking about, now whether he will be declaring a certain stance or he will be saying how the resistance, of course he will definitely not
