A former senior Israeli official says Iran has emerged victorious out of the latest bout of American-Israeli aggression targeting the Islamic Republic, describing Tel Aviv and Washington as facing a difficult strategic situation.
Giora Eiland, a retired major general and former head of the Israeli regime’s so-called domestic security council, made the remarks to the regime’s Channel 12.
“Iran won the war, perhaps by a few points, but it is a clear victory,” he said.
Iran’s resistance has already proven a profound truth: war not only failed to force Iran into surrender but granted it strategic advantages it could not have achieved in peacetime. Every war imposed on Iran has left the enemy weaker and Iran stronger.https://t.co/czqWG1A8LM https://t.co/mxr7WPv8W8

There is now a clear understanding of the war’s outcome, Eiland added, noting, “The Iranians can express greater satisfaction with the result of the war.”
Eiland further argued that the United States was currently “in an evident bind,” adding that this has placed the Israeli regime “in an even greater predicament.”
He also stressed that the Islamic Republic’s ruling establishment remains intact, despite the aggression, saying the country demonstrated strong resilience and power throughout the aggression and was now projecting strength towards the United States and its allies.
Eiland said a preferable scenario for the United States would be a return to the pre-war status quo in the Strait of Hormuz, without being forced to make additional concessions to Iran, alongside the lifting of the American naval blockade against the country.
He noted how the US has been forced to leave the nuclear dispute with Iran out of the agenda of current indirect diplomatic interactions with the Islamic Republic, and rather focus only on ending the aggression.
This is while, back in January, Washington would insist on negotiations involving the nuclear issue, Iran’s missile program, and regional allies.

This would effectively return the United States to “square one,” he stated.
The United States and the Israeli regime launched their latest bout of unprovoked aggression against Iran on February 27.
US President Donald Trump announced a unilateral ceasefire on April 7 following at least 100 waves of decisive and successful Iranian retaliation and after the Islamic Republic closed the Strait of Hormuz to enemies and their allies.
Iran has refused to rejoin negotiations unless its conditions, including cessation of aggression on all fronts and removal of the illegal blockade, were met.

if Iran is to remain free of nuclear weapons then so must israel and get rid of its currect stock pile under supervision of independent countries excluding and usa and europe. included must be the provision that no country is to provide nuclear weapons to either country directly or indirectly.
Israel forgets that without the support it gets from western politicians it would just be another piss-hole in the desert not on the level of anybody else around it. It did it mostly with money it funneled from the taxpayers of the countries it has infiltrated but even that wasn’t enough, because for the evil it perpetrates owning politicians and media won’t quite cut it. It needed to Epstein them too.
TTHANKYOU ELON MUSK
the party backed by Elon Musk has battered Reform and the other controlled parties in a UK seaside town
Elon Musk Backs Restore Britain Party
Elon Musk has publicly endorsed Rupert Lowe’s new political party, Restore Britain, which aims to reverse migration and implement tough policies on welfare and law and order. Musk’s support for Restore Britain has been significant, with Lowe’s party gaining traction in the political landscape. The party’s policies include a ban on halal and kosher slaughter, and a commitment to expelling migrants labeled as “third world orcs.” Lowe’s party has quickly gained momentum, with over 50,000 members already reported. Musk’s backing has been pivotal in Lowe’s campaign, positioning the party as a potential threat to the Reform UK party and the Conservative Party in the upcoming elections.
People who had been shit on by the racist parties flocked out to vote
This isa gift from heaven
Thankyou thankyou Elon Musk YIPPEEEE
If the Israelis do not pull out of Lebanon and their kibbutzers then is is just one more of their cheap and dishonest dodges. Regardless of when the US can knock off Iran, the present goals of the Israelis is to expand their borders toward the Euphrates.
Just another asshole promoting a fake war, like Larry n Larry, saying something stupid like one side “won” the war. The whole thing continues to be a charade. Ths wasn’t a war. It was a pretend war between merchant families.
The powers of evil took Britain after the battle of waterloo in 1815
they took Russia in 1917
and the USA in the federal reserve in 1013
Keep all this in mind,
Rothschild smashed the German economy and was starving the people
the great depression was caused by the jewbankers withholding in all the money
this is technically called ” clawback funds”
Adolf Hitler seized power, put the Rothschilds in prison, and shared out all the stolen money with his people.
Breaking the jews grip on the german economy was the real cause of ww2
Russia was amassing troops near the border, german forces chased them back far into russia, then Britain started bombing in germany, and the USA finished it off
Germany and Japan had both refused rothschild banking
The US General wesley clark, was shocked when told the US had to take out 7 middle east countries, Muslims see usuary as illegal, the charging of interest upon interest
is evil, but these countries would be bombed so they would have to go cap in hand
to the banks for the money to rebuild, then they are in rothschilds grip
Only Iran and Turkey remain out of the jews grip
the destruction of israel and the banking system would be the best thing ever for the UK
