The war united the nation in defending Iran
LONDON — Relying on divisions within Iran to bring about a coup against the system is merely an illusion. The war against Iran united the people's position more than ever. Before the war, the vertical division was based on the impact of the sanctions on the economic situation, which potentially led to great inflation.

Iran sets the tempo of the conflict
MADRID - As early as February, analysts questioned whether any viable military solution existed that could guarantee US strategic objectives: regime change, the destruction of uranium enrichment capabilities, the end of Iranian support for groups such as Ansarullah, Hamas, and Hezbollah, and the dismantling of the ballistic missile program. Months into the hostilities, reality has spoken. Not only has Washington achieved none of those goals; Iran now controls the Strait of Hormuz, something it did not do before being attacked.

The West won the headlines - Iran changed history
COA- Wars are fought twice. The first battle is fought with missiles, bombers and soldiers. The second is fought with headlines, television studios, think tanks and official briefings. The first destroys cities. The second constructs memory. For decades the West has excelled at winning both. Military superiority was reinforced by informational dominance. Washington and its allies not only projected power across continents; they largely shaped the language through which that power was understood. They decided who was the aggressor, who was the defender, whose violence was regrettable and whose violence was unforgivable. They possessed not merely armies but the authority to define reality.
