เราไม่เคยเชื่อการหยุดยิงของสหรัฐ เพราะในกาซ่าทรัมป์เองเป็นคนอ้างว่า หยุดยิงและจะไม่มีการโจมตีใดๆ แต่เรายังเห็นว่ากาซ่ายังคงถูกโจมตี
Prof. Dr. Marandi
"We stood by every agreement, proving it three times, but they attacked and invaded us, leading to war."
เรายืนหยัดบนข้อตกลงทุกครั้ง และพิสูจน์ให้เห็นทั้งสามครั้ง แต่พวกเขาต่างหากที่โจมตีและรุกรานเราจนมีสงครามเกิดขึ้น
Prof. Dr. Marandi
"The negotiating team will not be easily deceived as they are the team that helps fight enemies with missiles, and we remain ready on the trigger."
