Has the Iranian regime genuinely made progress? What does a 90% reduction in Iranian missiles and Yemeni involvement in the conflict mean?

Abdel Bari Atwan

Today marks the end of the first month of American-Israeli aggression against Iran, which is entering its fifth week without achieving any of its goals, the most visible of which is the collapse of the Iranian Islamic Republic and its replacement with another Washington-aligned puppet. The exact reverse has occurred; Iran has remained robust, successfully widening the scope of the war and lengthening its duration, transforming it into a multi-front regional war of attrition.

Will this operation be a prelude to joining the Iraqi Popular Mobilisation Forces? What are the implications for the Gulf region, American aircraft carriers, and the Red Sea?

Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the official spokesperson for the military wing of the Yemeni “Ansar Allah” movement, returns to television screens in his military uniform and with his distinctive rhetorical language after a long absence, announcing the bombardment of the occupied southern Palestinian territories with several ballistic missiles and after the completion of the first full month of the American-Israeli aggression on Iran, which means several things at first.

Will Trump’s “betrayal” save “Israel” from its most dangerous defeats?

Abdel Bari Awan

The swift Iranian response was to reject all the current escalating moves for a temporary ceasefire and a return to the negotiating table again according to American-Israeli conditions, which is astute and reflects a deep understanding of the dangerous goals behind these trap-like manoeuvres that are hidden behind a project prepared by the two biggest deceivers in the American administration, Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, and Steve Witkoff, his partner in

Trump, as usual, resorted to Muslim mediators, particularly Turkey and Pakistan, who are loyal to his country, to use them as a tool to deceive the Iranians, just as he resorted to Arab mediators before them to deceive the Palestinian resistance in Gaza, achieving all Israeli demands for the release of captive settlers and a quarter of the Gaza Strip’s area under what was then called the implementation of the ceasefire agreement prepared by the duo Kushner and Witkoff.

How did Iran catch him in this trap?

Abdel Bari Atwan

After repeatedly threatening to launch a devastating strike on all Iranian energy facilities and allowing Iran only 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz to oil ships, the American president shamefully backpedalled just hours before the deadline. He rationalised his withdrawal by claiming that “good and fruitful talks” had taken place with Iran, and he thus directed that the strikes cease immediately.
The semi-official Iranian news source “Tasnim” reported that a high-ranking Iranian official who chose to remain anonymous denied any conversations with the US.

Why will this step be the greatest “gift” for the Iranians during Eid al-Fitr and Nowruz? And how will the grand reception be?

Abdel Bari Atwan

The three Israeli-American aggressive wars on Iran, particularly the current one, which entered its fourth week yesterday, have proven the field theory that states the longer the war lasts, the stronger and more resilient the Iranian army becomes, and the greater the losses in the ranks of the aggressor forces, politically, militarily, economically, and morally.

What does he wish to hide and conceal? And why do I honour this honest and brave American?

Abdel Bari Atwan

The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, appears in a video boasting over the death of martyr Ali Larijani, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and the security and military advisor to martyr Imam Ali Khamenei. He also claimed that Israel had “eliminated” General Gholam Reza Soleimani, leader of the Basij army, a paramilitary outfit controlled by the Revolutionary Guard.

Why is Jordanian-Syrian worry growing about this possibility?

Abdel Bari Atwan

It is impossible to understand the present, future, and outcomes of the American-Israeli war, which was ignited by the American president against Iran and completed its second week today, without conducting a thorough study of the first statement with which Mr. Ayatollah Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, the third Supreme Leader, inaugurated the beginning of his rule in Tehran and his leadership of the resistance from his “haven”, a secret location in the Iranian capital.

Trump is planning to end the war and depart… And where has Netanyahu gone? And “Hezbollah” demonstrated its skills and exposed its opponents.

Abdel Bari Atwan

Mr Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader, gave his first remark on Thursday evening, coinciding with the simultaneous launch by Iran and Hezbollah of hundreds of precise missiles on the northern, central, and southern portions of the Israeli occupation state. This portends a bleak, destructive future for the American-Israeli dual aggression, as well as an escalation of the war of attrition that will strike at its heart, thwarting all of its plans, most notably the attempt to change the regime and install a submissive one that kneels before the rulers of Washington and Tel Aviv, a carbon copy of the neighbouring Arab regimes.

How did Netanyahu transform him into a “puppet” and involve him in a regional war of attrition that destroyed the most powerful American deterrence tools?

Abdel Bari Atwan

The American ruling elite is intensifying its criticism of US President Donald Trump for his embrace of Benjamin Netanyahu and the racist regime in the occupying state, as well as for succumbing to their pressure to prioritise Israel by mobilising all American military and diplomatic capabilities to serve its Middle Eastern wars, particularly those against Iran.

What about the Saudi “secret” attempt to end the aggression, and what are its chances of success? And who is working to stifle it early?

Abdel Bari Atwan

The American-Israeli aggression against Iran enters its second week today, without achieving any of its goals, chief among them the overthrow of the regime and its replacement with a more loyal one, or the surrender of the current regime led by a temporary tripartite leadership following the martyrdom of Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei and the raising of the white flag of surrender, accepting the American-Israeli conditions in full without any concessions.
