Imminent war or military show
Imminent war or military show?
TEHRAN - Sobh-e-No analyzed the increased American activity in the Persian Gulf. The newspaper argues that the increased U.S. military activity in the Persian Gulf, along with the activation of the Iran human rights file in the UN Human Rights Council, has led analysts to speculate about the possibility of a U.S. military attack on Iran.
Reports also indicate that some European airlines have suspended flights to several West Asian countries. The simultaneous holding of a UN Human Rights Council meeting with a focus on the recent unrest in Iran, coupled with the intensification of military and media hype, indicates an attempt to complete the pressure campaign. The dominant narrative at this meeting, by ignoring the violent and organized nature of a significant portion of the unrest, seeks to blur the line between civil protest and armed action. Although the possibility of an imminent foreign attack seems unlikely, their dormant cells still exist in the country and will continue to look for opportunities to implement their sinister American-Zionist plan.
Siasat-e-Rooz: War of narratives
The Siasat-e-Rooz addressed the war of narratives during the protests in Iran by the Zionists and the West in an article. According to the newspaper, in recent days, the Zionist media outlets have started a new war of narratives against the Islamic Republic of Iran by making new claims that Israel has provided evidence to the U.S. that Iran has resorted to a “mass execution of protesters” in prison. A widespread re-publication of this claim in foreign-based hostile Persian media outlets with a definitive language without providing any independent and verifiable document, shows that the main goal is not to discover the truth, but to consolidate a fabricated narrative in the media memory of the West; a narrative that could form the basis for new sanctions, political resolutions, and even legal or security measures in the future. Recent developments in the narrative war between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the U.S.-Israeli axis have once again shown that the issue of "human rights" is not a real concern, but a functional tool in the system of maximum pressure against Iran. In this context, the behavior and speech of U.S. President Donald Trump are a telling example of an attempt to manage failures through psychological operations and the production of unrealistic statements.
Farhikhtegan: The opposition is incapable of creating a movement
Farhikhtegan examined political activist Ali Bagheri's analysis of the current situation in the country. From the perspective of this political activist, the protests in a society that has been under economic pressure for years are completely natural and not conspiratorial. He believes that Iran will remain a "protesting" country until further notice. However, Bagheri draws a sharp line between the domestic protesting body and saboteur movements abroad. He describes the opposition abroad as an "un-national and anti-national" movement that, due to its inability to communicate with the context of society, is forced to hijack the people's natural protests. He emphasizes that this movement seeks to divert the people's civil and economic demands towards chaos by calling for foreign intervention and violence. Bagheri believes that the way to save the country is an understanding between two positions: the elites who see the cure for the homeland in gradual agreements, and a government that is tolerant and recognizes the demands of diverse groups.
Hamshahri: Unforeseen consequences of attacking Iran
The United States’ history is full of threats, intimidation, and putting pressure on independent nations and governments. The policy of White House officials, rather than being grounded in dialogue and mutual respect, is rooted in coercion, bullying, and the imposition of their will. In recent days, this same repetitive behavior has once again manifested itself, and the Islamic Republic of Iran and the great Iranian nation have become the targets of direct and indirect threats; threats that are neither new nor have gone unanswered. The Islamic Republic of Iran has never initiated war, and this principle has been proven both in words and in action. However, what reassures the Iranian nation today is its full readiness for intelligent and decisive defense. In the event of any military action, Iran's response will not be limited and predictable, and it will not be limited to specific targets. The threats of the United States and its allies should not be a cause for fear, because there is necessary capacity and readiness to seriously confront any aggression, and any mistake can cost them a heavy price; to the extent that even their presence in the region will be seriously questioned.
