IRAN’S WARNING GOES GLOBAL: “STRIKE ANY PART OF US…” — THE WORLD BRACES FOR A MULTI-FRONT CONFRONTATION

From Street Protests to Strategic Brinkmanship: A Crisis That Has Escaped Iran’s Borders

The Islamic Republic of Iran is facing one of the gravest moments in its post-1979 history. What began as domestic unrest fueled by economic collapse has rapidly transformed into a full-spectrum geopolitical crisis, drawing in the United States, Israel, China, Russia, and the European Union. Military posturing, covert operations, cyber warfare, trade ultimatums, and diplomatic ruptures are now unfolding simultaneously — raising fears of a regional war with global consequences.

 IRAN’S SOVEREIGNTY RED LINE: “ANY STRIKE WILL BE MET ANYWHERE”

Iran’s leadership has issued its most explicit warning yet. The Speaker of Iran’s Parliament declared that any attack on Iranian territory — military or otherwise — will trigger retaliation at a scale and location of Tehran’s choosing. Western intelligence agencies interpret this as preparation for asymmetric warfare across the Middle East, targeting U.S. bases, Israeli infrastructure, and allied economic routes.

Iranian officials insist this posture is defensive, framing it as a response to what they describe as foreign-orchestrated destabilization, rather than organic civil unrest.

✦ SHADOW WAR INSIDE IRAN: MOSSAD, CIA & THE BATTLE FOR THE STREETS

✧ Foreign Interference Allegations

Iran claims to have arrested multiple “Mossad-linked operatives, accusing them of:

• Sabotaging infrastructure
• Redirecting protests toward violence
• Coordinating safe houses and encrypted communications

Tehran points to public remarks by former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, who openly wished luck to Mossad agents, as indirect confirmation of Israeli involvement.

✧ State-Sponsored Terrorism?

Political analyst Fawad Izadi described the unfolding events as a “state-sponsored terrorism campaign, arguing that Washington and Tel Aviv shifted to internal collapse strategies after failing to achieve military objectives in mid-2025.

✦ A DEADLY CRACKDOWN: IRAN ENTERS ITS BLOODIEST PHASE

✧ Human Cost

• Deaths: Estimates range from 646 to over 2,000
• Arrests: More than 10,700 detained
• Security Casualties: Over 100 Iranian police and security personnel killed
• Property Damage: Tehran alone reports $18 million in civilian losses

Iran is preparing its first execution linked to the protests, with a 26-year-old protester, Air Sultani, sentenced to death on charges of “waging war against God” — a move that has triggered global outrage.

 THE STARLINK WAR: DIGITAL BATTLEFIELDS & INTELLIGENCE COLLAPSE

✧ Starlink as a Weapon

Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet became a critical lifeline for protesters, enabling footage to bypass Iran’s blackout.

✧ Iran’s Counterstrike

Iranian security forces launched one of the most sophisticated satellite-jamming operations ever recorded:

• GPS flooding with military-grade signals
• Drone-assisted surveillance
• Satellite-data triangulation
• Door-to-door Starlink confiscations

Up to 90% of Starlink connections reportedly collapsed, exposing opposition networks, safe houses, and command structures. Intelligence raids — including a major operation in Yasuj — dismantled entire cells within days.

Lesson learned: Advanced technology without intelligence dominance becomes a liability.

✦ U.S. WAR PREPARATIONS: FROM AIRSTRIKES TO PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE

✧ Pentagon’s “Menu of Options.”

President Donald Trump has been briefed on integrated warfare scenarios, including:

• Targeted strikes on Tehran-linked security infrastructure
• Long-range missile and air operations
• Cyber and psychological warfare
• Covert support for opposition networks

Trump warned that if Iran targets U.S. bases or commercial assets, retaliation would reach “levels they wouldn’t believe.”

 AL-UDIED ON ALERT: THE MILITARY CLOCK IS TICKING

The Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar, hosting over 10,000 U.S. troops, has seen intensified activity:

• Strategic bomber readiness
• Long-range strike capability upgrades
• Emergency evacuation advisories for U.S. citizens in Iran

Washington insists diplomacy remains the “first option,” but troop movements suggest contingency planning is well underway.

✦ ECONOMIC WARFARE: TRUMP’S 25% TARIFF ULTIMATUM

In a dramatic escalation, Trump announced:

“Any country doing business with Iran will face a 25% tariff on all trade with the United States.”

✧ Global Shockwaves

• China: Warned that tariff wars have no winners; vowed to protect its interests
• India: Could face cumulative tariffs up to 75%, due to existing Russia-related penalties
• Global Trade: Analysts warn of a cascading trade war involving energy, shipping, and manufacturing

China explicitly linked its response to supporting Iran’s stability, raising fears of a broader U.S.–China confrontation.

 EUROPE SLAMS THE DOOR: IRAN DIPLOMATS BANNED

The European Parliament has imposed an unprecedented ban on all Iranian diplomats and officials across:

• Brussels
• Strasbourg
• Luxembourg

Parliament President Roberta Metsola declared:

“It cannot be business as usual with a regime sustained by repression and murder.”

Calls are growing to:

• Designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization
• Expand sanctions against the Iranian leadership

Meanwhile, Iranian embassies across Europe have become flashpoints, with flags torn down and monarchy-era symbols raised.

✦ CHINA & RUSSIA ENTER THE FIELD

Russia

• Condemned U.S. regime-change rhetoric as “categorically unacceptable.”
• Supplied Iran with helicopters, armored vehicles, and transport aircraft
• Studying Iran’s internal control methods rather than deploying troops

China

• Backed Iran’s sovereignty
• Warned Washington against economic coercion
• Views Iran as a critical node in energy and regional stability

✦ INFORMATION, FEAR & PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE

Trump’s cryptic message to Iranian protesters — “Help is on its way” — has intensified speculation:

• Diplomatic pressure?
• Cyber intervention?
• Covert operations?
• Or military escalation?

Iran’s leadership responded furiously, accusing Trump and Israel of direct responsibility for Iranian bloodshed.

✦ CONCLUSION: THE EDGE OF A GLOBAL INFLECTION POINT

Iran is no longer facing a single crisis — it is confronting:

• Internal revolt
• External pressure
• Economic strangulation
• Digital warfare
• Military encirclement

What makes this moment uniquely dangerous is the simultaneous activation of every modern battlefield — streets, skies, satellites, markets, and minds.

Whether diplomacy prevails or the world slides into another catastrophic conflict now depends on decisions made in Washington, Tehran, Beijing, Moscow, and Tel Aviv — in the coming days, not months.

The warning from Iran is unmistakable:

“Strike any part of us — and the response will not be limited by geography.”
