In the final days of June, the Zionist regime launched a new chapter of escalation by planning and executing targeted attacks against senior commanders of the Islamic Republic of Iran, nuclear scientists, and civilians in Tehran, Tabriz, Shiraz, and Isfahan. This terrorist and criminal act was met with a precise and reciprocal response from Iran, one that targeted strategic sites in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and numerous other key cities across the occupied territories, exposing the depths of the Zionist regime’s vulnerability. The recent military operation was not an emotional reaction, but a calculated and smart strike, meant to send a message of power to the exact point where the enemy is most sensitive, both in terms of security and psyche.
Tel Aviv’s Total Dependence on Washington Was Exposed
Shortly after, as the Zionist regime’s resilience collapsed, the United States entered the conflict directly, striking Iranian nuclear sites on June 22. This opened a new chapter in the deep security entanglement between Washington and Tel Aviv. Rather than showcasing strength, this move laid bare the Zionist regime’s strategic fear, seeking to disrupt regional balance with America’s backing. Now, with the rules of warfare completely reshaped, Israel’s defeat is clear despite full US support. Iran’s response must not only target the US but continue to focus on the regime that triggered the crisis, the Zionist entity, pressing persistently on this festering wound.
Diplomatic Front and the Narrative of Oppression: Complements to Deterrence on the Battlefield
Alongside direct, proxy, regional, military, and economic responses to both the US and the Zionist regime, Iran must fully utilize public diplomacy and media to reveal the truth. Iran’s narrative in this war is one of well-documented, defensible oppression: from assassinations of military commanders and nuclear scientists, to massacres of civilians including women and children, to attacks on civilian and nuclear infrastructure, these are scenes that lay the truth bare before the world. Mobilizing independent media, anti-war institutions in the West, and global public opinion can shift the equation. On this front, figures such as Trump must also be exposed as key agents of global instability and warmongering.
A Phased Response to America: Calm but Decisive
While maintaining focus on retaliating against Israel, Washington must not be allowed to walk away unscathed. Iran’s response to the US must be smart, gradual, and multilayered. Striking American interests should not be impulsive or reactive but crafted within a costly war of attrition. Maintaining strategic composure and using the element of surprise could fundamentally shift the balance of power and make continued aggression by the US extremely costly.
