🔴The Failure of "Epic Fury": Washington and Tel Aviv Face Strategic Defeat in Tehran


The News:

The U.S. and Israel have initiated a massive joint offensive, dubbed "Operation Epic Fury" and "Operation Roaring Lion." Strategic strikes hit Tehran, Isfahan, and Qom, specifically targeting high-level leadership compounds. Israeli Channel 14 has confirmed the failure of assassination attempts against Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian. Iran retaliated immediately with over 100 ballistic missiles and Shahed drones striking Israeli territory and U.S. assets in the Gulf, triggering a regional state of emergency and airspace closures.

Strategic Analysis:

This escalation marks the definitive end of "strategic patience" and the "gray zone" conflict. By attempting to decapitate the Iranian leadership, the U.S.-Israeli alliance has committed a terminal escalatory move. Historically, such "shock and awe" tactics against institutionalized revolutionary states fail to achieve collapse; instead, they consolidate internal resolve and expand the theater of operations. The failure to eliminate the political core of the Islamic Republic, despite utilizing peak Western intelligence assets, reveals a significant gap between Western tactical ambition and the reality of Iranian defensive capabilities.


The Position:

The rhetoric of "liberating" the Iranian people while bombing their cities is a discredited neo-conservative trope. This is not a surgical strike on a nuclear program; it is an existential war against a regional power. Iran’s decision to strike U.S. assets in Bahrain, Qatar, and the UAE signals the death of the "neutral host" concept. From a strategic standpoint, any state providing geography for American aggression is now an active combatant in a war that threatens to dismantle the global energy architecture.

Future Geopolitical Outlook:

1. Total Regional Mobilization: The official entry of the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades and other Axis components suggests a multi-front attrition war designed to overstretch U.S. naval and air assets.

2. Economic Shockwaves: Brent crude will continue its vertical climb as the threat to the Strait of Hormuz transitions from theoretical to operational, likely forcing a global inflationary crisis.

3. The Death of Dialogue: The collapse of Omani-mediated talks signifies that the era of JCPOA-style diplomacy is over. The new regional order will be written in the theater of combat, not the halls of Switzerland.

🔴Adraee threatens "Hezbollah": Our response will be powerful!

He added: "To those watching from across the border, we are taking into account the possibility of Hezbollah's involvement in this fighting, and our message here is clear: If you make this fatal mistake, our response will be powerful."

🔴 IRGC: American radar in Qatar 'completely destroyed'

🔴Statement issued by Hezbollah regarding the American-Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran:

Hezbollah condemns the treacherous American-Israeli aggression that targeted the Islamic Republic of Iran after months of Zionist and American threats aimed at subjugating the Islamic Republic, forcing it to surrender, and stripping it of its natural and legitimate right to possess peaceful nuclear power and develop its defensive missile capabilities, like all other countries in the world.

This new aggression, which constitutes a flagrant violation of international law and the UN Charter, is a continuation of the approach of arrogance and hegemony practiced by the U.S. administration and the criminal Zionist entity in our region, in a desperate attempt to destabilize it, subjugate its peoples, and force them to accept projects of dominance and occupation.

What is happening today, following the failure of the twelve-day war launched by the Israeli enemy with direct American participation, confirms that the issue was never the nuclear program. Rather, it is the refusal to accept a strong state in the region that relies on itself, upholds its sovereignty and independent national decision-making—a capable state that protects its resources, develops its capabilities, refuses to join the system of American dependency, supports free and oppressed peoples in the world, and stands as a formidable barrier against Zionist-American schemes in the region. Instead, they want weak, depleted entities that are easy to control and isolate in preparation for implementing their occupation and colonial plans.

This aggression will only increase the strength, resilience, steadfastness, and adherence of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its people to their legitimate rights. Over decades of blockade, threats, and attacks, Iran has proven to be a strong, established state resistant to surrender, backed by a proud people standing as one in defense of their dignity and sovereignty.
As Hezbollah declares its full solidarity with the leadership and people of the Islamic Republic of Iran, it calls upon the countries and peoples of the region to stand against this aggressive scheme and recognize its danger, as its dire consequences will affect everyone without exception if left without firm confrontation. We are confident that the American and Israeli enemy will receive a major blow and will reap nothing but failure from their tyrannical and criminal aggression.

🔴Brazil Denounces US-Israel Strikes on Iran, Calls for Deescalation


The Brazilian government has condemned the recent military strikes by the United States and Israel against Iran, expressing grave concern regarding the heightening conflict.
Official statements emphasize that these attacks disrupt ongoing negotiations, which Brazil maintains is the only viable route to regional peace. The government urged all involved parties to exercise maximum restraint and adhere to international law to protect civilian lives.

Additionally, Brazilian diplomatic missions are monitoring the situation to ensure the safety of Brazilian citizens residing in the affected areas.

🔴 The U.S. President:

📌 “Khamenei, one of the most evil figures in history, is dead.”

📌 “This is not only justice for the Iranian people, but for all great Americans, and for all of Khamenei’s victims.”

📌 “He was unable to escape our intelligence services and highly advanced tracking systems.”

📌 “In close cooperation with Israel, there was nothing he — or the other leaders who were killed with him — could do.”

📌 “This is the greatest opportunity for the Iranian people to reclaim their homeland.”

📌 “We are hearing that many members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, the army, security forces, and other police forces no longer wish to fight and are seeking immunity from us.”

📌 “They can receive immunity now; later, they will receive nothing but death.”

📌 “We hope the Revolutionary Guard and the police will peacefully merge with Iranian patriots and work together as one team to restore the country to the greatness it deserves.”

📌 This process should begin soon, as it is not only Khamenei who has died; the country has been severely devastated — nearly annihilated — in just one day.

📌 “Intensive and precise bombing will continue uninterrupted throughout the week, or as long as necessary to achieve our goal of establishing peace across the Middle East — and indeed the entire world.”

🔴 Constitutional provision for the absence of the Leader

According to Principle 111 of the Constitution, In the event of the demise, resignation, or dismissal of the Leader, the Assembly of Experts is obliged to take action as soon as possible to appoint and introduce a new Leader.
