General: US Failing in Hybrid War Against Iran; Hormuz More Powerful Than Nuclear Bomb
The political deputy of the Ideological Bureau of the office of Iran’s Supreme Leader stated that the United States has run out of options in its hybrid war against Iran. He emphasized that the Iranian nation, through its epic uprising, has turned the Strait of Hormuz into a lever more powerful than an atomic bomb.
Brigadier General Rasoul Sanaei-Rad, speaking on Wednesday evening, said: “The Americans thought that if they attacked Iran, even the Europeans would not hesitate to abandon Iran. This miscalculation led them into a situation they now regret.”Sanaei-Rad noted that the Strait of Hormuz has become a new factor—nonexistent before the conflict—that now serves as Iran’s leverage in political, security, military, and economic arenas. “They value this Strait above the atomic bomb, and today the enemy’s focus is on how to escape this vortex,” he added.He further remarked that enemies believed assassinating Iranian commanders and key figures would collapse the country’s affairs. “Today, for about 60 consecutive days, people have been in the streets—not to riot, but to loudly proclaim the strength of the system and support it.”“The fierce resistance of our fighters shattered the American arrogance,” Sanaei-Rad continued. “What they now pursue under the name of diplomacy is a direct result of their battlefield failure.”He also pointed to European countries that have historically followed the US, saying: “Today they see Trump trapped in war, asking NATO for help, only to be met with indifference. Allies who once hosted the US now realize America cannot even defend itself and has plundered them for years.”
Referring to the success of Iran’s negotiating team in Islamabad, the senior military commander stated: “In Islamabad, the enemy understood it could not continue its previous approach. There, they realized that this negotiating team represents a great nation with full hands.”
