Consequently, the likelihood of military confrontation has increased significantly. The hidden agenda of the United States appears to be to buy time for military preparations in waters surrounding Iran, including the Arabian Sea, Red Sea, Indian Ocean, and U.S. bases in neighboring countries like Qatar, the UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli regime is actively steering towards the collapse of negotiations and accelerating the onset of war by imposing unrealistic demands. These include a complete halt to uranium enrichment, the transfer of enriched uranium outside of Iran, restrictions on the number and range of ballistic missiles, and ceasing financial and military support for resistance groups. Such conditions aim to compel Trump to hasten military aggression.Should any agreement emerge between the United States and Iran, Israel would emerge as the biggest loser, as lifting sanctions would facilitate the influx of hundreds of billions of dollars into Iran\u2019s treasury. This influx would stimulate the economy, enhance financial resources, improve public services, and advance Iran&#8217;s military industries. Most importantly, it would ensure the survival and strengthening of Iran&#8217;s Islamic regime, which Trump has repeatedly threatened.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s steadfastness and adherence to its red lines in all negotiations, whether the longstanding Vienna talks or the new discussions in Muscat, underscore its commitment to its right to enrich uranium and maintain its ballistic missile program as a matter of national sovereignty. This stance, coupled with a lack of fear regarding U.S. military threats and the gathering of fleets and aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf, has left Trump and his administration perplexed and placed Israel in a nightmarish scenario.The prolongation of negotiations and the rejection of Israeli demands have thwarted Israel&#8217;s plans to contain resistance movements and realize the &#8216;Greater Israel&#8217; project. Resistance groups in Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, and even Gaza have successfully restored their military and human capabilities. U.S. and Arab attempts at attacks, assassinations, and pressures have failed to dismantle the strength of Hezbollah, Ansar Allah, or Iraqi resistance groups, nor have they severed their robust ties with Iran.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, after over two years of efforts to destroy and besiege Gaza, the Israeli army has only managed to demolish 150 out of 500 tunnels. This failure not only highlights the resilience of Palestinian groups like Al-Qassam Brigades but also indicates that their internal elections and political management remain active and capable.Iran emphasizes the sanctity of its ballistic missile and drone programs. With joint military maneuvers with Russia in the Strait of Hormuz and the Arabian Sea, Iran aims to disrupt the daily flow of 22 million barrels of oil in the event of war, ensuring a robust counter to the U.S. fleet that could drive oil prices to between $200 and $500 per barrel.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, famously stated, &#8216;Yes, aircraft carriers possess significant military power, but more dangerous are the Iranian missiles that will destroy them and send them to the ocean floor.&#8217; This statement reflects not just a verbal threat, but a profound understanding of Iran&#8217;s military capabilities and historical warfare experiences, such as the 12-day war in June, which showcased Iran&#8217;s response to aggression.Iran has neutralized U.S. and Israeli threats with its defensive and deterrent capabilities prepared to transform any act of aggression into a regional war. The prolongation of conflict will disadvantage the attacking forces as Iran has the capacity for a protracted war countering the U.S. military&#8217;s new strategy aimed at short limited engagements to minimize losses.<\/p>\n<p>The potential end of U.S. hegemony may be shaped by Netanyahu&#8217;s actions and Israel with the coming days set to reveal how this scenario unfolds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israel and the United States are intensifying pressure on Iran, paving the way for regional warfare, while Tehran stands poised for a decisive response.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":572,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19830","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-palestine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19830","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/users\/572"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19830"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19830\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19830"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19830"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ghodsnama.com\/api\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19830"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
