Iran will support Syria 'to the end': military chief

[gordianot]

5. I wonder if those using the term "until the end" understand what it means?

Here is my point Israel has a nuclear stockpile of weapons and has had them for decades. They are very quiet about using them but who doubts they are willing to use them? Iran has not been quiet about nuclear research but consistently denies nuclear weapon development. Iran from time to time threatens Israel with annihilation. Both Israel and Iran have a rather violent history. Israel has the means to put an "end" to Iran with nuclear weapons. Most likely Iran has the means to put an "end" to Israel with a variety of chemical weapons and who knows what else after all it is a smaller target. Is there an equivalent term in Farsi and Hebrew to the English word "the end"?
