Iranian Foreign & Resistance Front Strategy & Operations

[vmro]

Maybe this is a good chance for Iran to disengage militarily from the region, IMO building alliances, strengthing the economy and military forces should be the aim. They should prepare the bomb too for contingency incase they need to declare themselves as a nuclear power. Sometimes retreating is the best course of action, avoiding conflict focusing on development can pay dividends later.

The region needs to step up to deal with the zionist threat, ironically its the arabs that will be in trouble as israel tries to expand out.

Far from that Iran is hopeless and without maneuvering geopolitical options, dominant in the Persian Gulf, Iranian Plateau itself is important corridor, among richest countries with oil and gas, has some mechanisms to counter pressure on Turkey regardless Syria and Iraq, always is attractive for new allies that need alternative approach, even now eventual stronghold in KSA could neutralize all this eventual issues....

Here only problem is that so dominant position from the Gulf to the Levant is shaken in the fundaments... Iraq in any case could be just temporarily lost for Iran....just situation seemed to be strong from Tehran to Beirut, and it is something that we are talking about...

One of historical ability of Iran is creating "hero of the moment"... Strong leader that is capable and dedicated to provide right decisions during hardest times... There is network of institutions that are natural bases for this purpose...It's not Iranian nature to depend on irreplaceable personas...

That’s the error with your thinking. You think great military leaders are born on trees. Yet how many can you name off the top of your head that are remembered throughout history? 5? 10? 15?

Iran doesn’t depend on irreplaceable personas but Michael Jordan is Michael Jordan and Muhammad Ali is Muhammad Ali. These are unique people that come around once a generation that have skill that is not seen and rally people around them. It’s just facts. You cannot expect to continuously replenish military leaders and suffer no degradation.

Solemani was unique because he commanded respect from everyone, even his enemies and even those who were neutral. He spoke fluent Arabic and had relationships with so many different ethnic groups and competing parties going back decades. All the actors in the region knew him and could rely on his word and promise. So it was more likely people would listen to him or compromise. Compare that to his successor Ghaani who has zero connections in Syria and speaks Farsi. Isn’t charismatic. doesn’t fight on the battlefield alongside the average joe. It’s just not the same. Simply put.

Pretty much every senior military mind tied to the founding of HZ and Axis of Resistance in Syria/Lebanon is dead. From 2006 to 2024: Israel and U.S. killed them off one by one.

So good luck finding the next Solemani or Nasrallah in next 6 months.

This last is true anyway, too many assassinated capable persons is without precedent, unfortunately, when enemy is most dangerous terroristic organization in the world, mossad... still, all that institutions will have to find optimal solution... but you are right, there were many eliminated among elite...

100% Same applies to Syria....

If there is no air supremacy or denying enemy air supremacy in meaningful way there is no military meaningful resistance in contemporary world, if you still want to "resist" then choose your allies more rationally those one who can contribute not ones that are burden. Iran made both mistakes.

It's nothing wrong if the new government has new concept and different approach to ongoing issues, with reasonable expectations and objectives, that is the point of Government's function in the first place...but they need to have clear direction, plan and guidelines...if they intentionally make this decisions because they chose better path, in the end, they are Iranian government, first and foremost, then allies of Assad or PMF...

President of Iran has limited power to make such important decisions alone...

If there is no air supremacy or denying enemy air supremacy in meaningful way there is no military meaningful resistance in contemporary world, if you still want to "resist" then choose your allies more rationally those one who can contribute not ones that are burden. Iran made both mistakes.

Yes, HTS is dominant in air superiority, no???

They have zero if that, and SAA is supported by Russian airstrikes, here is not that reason for sure

Bro what are you on about. No one willingly would want to ally with Bashar Al Assad who is basically a Syrian Saddam Hussen, ideologically and politically speaking, both Baathist.
Iran allied with Bashar out of necessity, for two key reasons, he's the only Arab president in the region who's hostile to the state of Israel and he allowed the supply chain of weapons and equipment to go through Syria to Lebanon (Hezbollah), the fastest and best route, connecting Beirut-Damascus-Baghdad-Tehran. No one else would or could provide that.

Sometimes the game deals you shitty cards and you have to make the best of them. If there was anyother candidate which would also be against Israel and allow supply routes to Hezbollah, Iran would've let Bashar drown in 2011 without blinking twice.

Whatever happens next, this current opposition will be used and abused to the max by the west and Israel and when Assad is gone and they longer serve a purpose, Israel and the US will both invade Syria under the pretext of HTS is a designated jihadi terrorist organisation according to the US & EU. The Zionist are the only real winners.

Now that Assad has fallen, the only good thing that can come out of this is if the US supports an independent Kurdistan. Just to say **** You to Erdogan and Turkish scum.

We still need to wait as unless Damascus has fallen, Assad is still in there.

Turkey betrayed Palestine and Lebanon in their darkest hour, and so Zio-US creating a powerful Kurdish entity that can give support to the Kurds across the border in Turkey will be extremely sweet justice. The Syrian/Iraqi Kurds will also checkmate any Turkish affiliated rebel government in Syria.

Erdogan needs to realise that Zio-US also wants to cut Turkey down to size. It does not matter how much he does their bidding, Zio-US will never tolerate a powerful Muslim country so close to the entity in the ME.

Of course, this will be remembered in history as Great Turkish Betrayal and crucial support for so-called "enemy"...They gave new wave to zionists agenda, and they think now zionists and west will fall in love with them...

Erdogan barely stayed alive, with Russian alarming, they almost killed him, probably because some loving issues...

Now everyone is literate and history is writing by experts...only autistic Turkish government think that world is blind to their greedy short-term goals....
