Iran has finally gained a moment of strategic calm, no longer worrying about being bombed by Israel, as Syria is currently under Israeli bombing. Iran has seized the opportunity to catch its breath and also realized its strategic position. Iranian media previously released various information on the media, saying that they bought J-10C fighter jets and Hongqi air defense missiles, with all sorts of true and false propaganda, just to confuse the United States and Israel.
In fact, Iran didn't buy anything at all; it was just a strategic bluff. These things are not beyond our eyes, just a laugh, and there will be no real changes. No matter what, Iran has suffered a big loss, with almost all the high-ranking military officers wiped out, and it should have woken up. However, Iran still holds illusions about negotiations.
Look at North Korea, how resolute it is. No matter how the United States requests negotiations and communication, North Korea refuses all of them, having no contact with the United States at all. It just quietly develops its economy and production, and the United States is at a loss. But Iran is different; Iran alternates between fighting and stopping, wanting to compromise and develop at the same time, which is very obvious.
No matter what, Iran is now in a very awkward situation, full of awkwardness, which means Iran cannot gain trust. The United States and Israel do not trust Iran, and China and Russia also dare not fully trust Iran, because Iran may sell itself out at any time. This has happened before, so Iran is destined to be in constant contradictions, which is a fact.
Iran's defensive war for half a month has already proven that its strength is generally weak, only the missile forces are strong, and other branches of the military are not very useful, so it can only take defensive measures. Iran has only these two tricks, and it is almost impossible to develop more.
