Ismail Ghani replaces Qassim Solaimani, the recent victim of US killing who was termed as the successful Iranian commander. Ghani has been made the head of Iran's powerful Qudos force, a position he will succeed Qassim Soleimani.
Ghani, led by a well-trained and devoted revolutionary Quds force of 125,000 members, will ensure military interests both inside and outside Iran. Before Quds became head no one knew his name and he worked behind the shadow at the behest of General Qassim Soleimani.
Young Ismail Ghani, in his early 80s, participated in the Iran-Iraq war and later joined the Quds army who’s another name is ‘the Jerusalem army’. These forces are in charge of the revolutionary ideology of Iran, in charge of military and civilian security. Under the direct supervision of the Iranian Supreme Leader, the force devised and implemented key military strategies in Iran. It is from this force that the final tactic comes from all branches of the military and ballistic missiles. The force is the only state institution in the world that the United States has blacklisted.
The 62-year-old Ismail Ghani is called the 'son of war' as he grew up in the war. Throughout his professional life he has spent the entire war through direct combat. He loves to fight. These revelations have been given about him.
Born on August 7, Iran's top leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, called Isma'il Ghani, who was born in the city of Masad, northeast of Iran, the leader of the Quds, he was described as a "potential commander of Iran." The Iranian leader also instructed him to carry out duties in accordance with the declared policies and tactics of the Quds forces.
In the Quds force, Ismail Ghani was more focused on counter-intelligence and tactical. Now he has to handle all sides of this important force. In particular, General Soleimani made the army one of the most important military and political institutions in the Middle East. Outside Iran, the Quds forces led by Soleimani also influenced Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen.
Ismail Ghani took on the biggest challenge by taking the charge of Quds forces. He must maintain the influence of these forces in the Middle East. We must ensure our own interests in the face of strong US opposition and aggressive situations. In addition, Iran's commitment to avenge the killing of Soleimani has largely fallen on him.
It is now only to be seen how successful Ismail Ghani, the successor in the image of Mountain like Qasim Soleimani, in the midst of intense conflict and war.
