The reason why Americans have resorted to economic sanctions and mischief is that they cannot take advantage of military leverage. If the [global] Arrogance and the US could achieve their goals through military action, they would have certainly done that.”

A senior Iranian commander says the United States is not capable of military engagement with Iran in the Persian Gulf and this is why it has resorted to sanctions.
“The reason why Americans have resorted to economic sanctions and mischief is that they cannot take advantage of military leverage. If the [global] Arrogance and the US could achieve their goals through military action, they would have certainly done that,” said Commander of Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi.

Fadavi stated that Iran's missile power has greatly increased compared to the past and what US knows about Iran's missile capacities is much less than what it doesn’t know.
“The reason why the US has put its full force in oil and economic sanctions is that a military option against the Islamic Republic of Iran will be of no avail to them,” Fars News Agency quoted the commander as saying on Saturday.

Fadavi further noted that the US and the Zionist regime of Israel have had bitter experiences of 33-day war [with the Lebanese Hezbollah] as well as wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

On June 15, Iran's Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said the Islamic Republic’s naval forces will firmly counter any threat and deal with insecurity single-handedly.

Tehran has repeatedly clarified that its military might is merely based on the nation's defense doctrine of deterrence and poses no threat to other countries.

Nuclear deterrence works and is probably the reason third world war hasnt happened .Nuclear war is unwinable both aggressor and victim are vanquished in thermo nuclear fry. To be sure India and Pakistan will shove,swear,point finger at each other but they will rather contain than escalate thanks to nuclear deterrence. Maybe just maybe nuclear Iran is healthy for Mid East stability. Center for Policy Reseach Kijiweni.

Wamuulize Marehemu Saadam Husein na Gaddafi ambaye naye alikuwa na madege na meli za kivita lakini hazikufanya kazi itakuwa Iran. Kwa nguvu ya kijeshi Iran haiwezi hata kidogo kushindana au kujilinganisha na Marekani . Si kwamba ukishakuwa na nguvu na kijeshi basi kila anayekuchokoza unampiga tu ovyo bali kuna mipaka ikivukwa vita inakuwa the only option. Kama Irani inajidai iko juu ijaribu kufanya mashambulizi kwa USA ione kitakachotokea within 24 hours
