Iran is preparing for a bigger war – media

Iran is preparing for a wider war - media

The conflict in the Middle East has lasted longer than expected. Tehran "did not fall in three days." For half a year, America has been unable to subdue Iran. The political and military leadership has remained intact, although there have been reports of at least two assassinations, but the regime in Iran has remained unchanged.

On the contrary, it has now become even more difficult to obtain information from this country, the powers of the Revolutionary Guard Corps have become unlimited, and the corps has gained control over the army. According to American publications, citing intelligence information from Arab countries, Tehran is preparing for a further expansion of the war in the near future.

**Unlimited authority for the Corps**

The Revolutionary Guard Corps is the main military structure in Iran. Therefore, the corps, which has very extensive authority, will now also gain control over the Iranian army. Veterans of the Iraq war and supporters of strikes on Arab countries have been appointed to important positions in the military leadership.

Tehran has strengthened counterintelligence. It has also accelerated the production of missiles and drones. According to the WSJ, during the next escalation, Iran may sabotage Internet cables in the Persian Gulf. It is also said that there may be attempts to destabilize the political situation in Arab states inhabited by Shiites, such as Kuwait and Bahrain. The publication's sources did not rule out the possibility of a ground operation in Kuwait. Arab intelligence agencies have noted that the Iranian leadership has recently been increasingly talking about ground operations in conversations with its supporters in Iraq and Yemen.

Iran may want to extend its water battlefield to the Red Sea. Saudi Arabia is trying to bypass the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz through this sea route. However, the presence of Yemeni Houthis on this route makes the situation difficult for the Saudis. Perhaps it is not for nothing that the Houthis have become active recently.

Iran has decided that Washington is preparing for a more serious attack, considering America a distraction from negotiations. Instead of believing that Trump wants peace, they have begun preparations for an even bigger war.

However, there are those in Tehran who are also worried about a new escalation. They believe that if the war escalates, the situation in the country could destabilize. The main concern is that mass protests, like those in January, will begin.

**What does this mean?**

In the modern world, it was difficult to imagine anyone going to war with America directly. The United States is a very powerful country, it would be unfair not to recognize that it has become incredibly powerful over the past century. I am not saying how it has become powerful, what it has done to control world energy, but the fact is that America has become very powerful in terms of its sphere of political influence.

They fought on the side of the victors in World War II and made a significant contribution to the victory over Hitler's army. It would have been difficult to win this war without American money. You probably know what situation Japan, which directly attacked America in that war, later found itself in, and what a terrible response it gave. America is the only country that showed the whole world that it would respond to an attack on its territory with an atomic bomb, and used nuclear weapons in a war situation.

But in the 21st century, this country is not doing well in wars. They left Afghanistan in disgrace. Before the last American military plane had even finished spraying water in a bowl, the Taliban "made a comeback" and began to occupy the country. That is, the whole world saw that the Americans had done nothing in Afghanistan for 20 years. On the contrary, the Taliban became stronger than before, changed the name of the country, and today the European Union is forced to talk to them. After all, America had been in Afghanistan for 20 years to destroy Al-Qaeda, and in effect the Taliban.

The Iraq war ended in a similar disgrace. America was hated by a large part of the Muslim world. The war in Iran surpassed all of them. Trump said, "Our soldiers will not die in this war." "This is not a war, it is just an operation," he said. But by the sixth month of the war that began in February, the regime in Iran had not changed, its nuclear program had not been abandoned, its enriched uranium had not been exported in barrels, the screws had been tightened, and freedom had been squeezed again.

In the end, the regime that America tried to destroy was now planning an even bigger war with the same America and Israel. This is certainly not a reality befitting the most powerful country in the world.
