Iran's undeclared factors could turn any new aggression into bigger defeat for US: Analysis

Amid a fragile ceasefire and the enemy's desperation to resume all-out war against the Islamic Republic of Iran, multiple factors could inflict a larger defeat on the United States should it resort to another military adventure, according to a Press TV analysis.

Based on evidence, interviews with officials, and inputs from knowledgeable sources, Press TV learned that several critical factors were inadvertently overlooked by American war planners during the recent 40-day war against the Islamic Republic.

If activated, these factors could impose an even heavier defeat on the US than what it suffered in its illegal and unauthorized 40-day war, leaving it in a far worse position.

First point concerns Iran's undeclared asymmetric response to continued US maritime piracy and banditry – a response capable of disrupting all of Trump's war calculations.

Iran's decision not to unveil this response so far – specifying its type, timing, and method of execution – will certainly increase the level of ambiguity on the enemy's side and make the response more effective, the analysis notes.

The second point relates to "numerous options" not yet used by Iran and the Resistance Front, which can be deployed even without an official announcement.

The enemy is already expressing concern over some of these dangerous options, such as the fiber optic communication lines beneath the Strait of Hormuz.

The third point focuses on Iran's vast land borders as a means to bypass the US naval blockade. The continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the resulting global economic crisis, including inside the US, on one hand, and Iran's many options to bypass the blockade, including the use of 8,000 kilometers of land borders with multiple neighbors, could "tilt the endurance battle" between the two sides.

In that case, it will be America that must choose between war and accepting Iran's conditions. That would mean at least a collapse of White House scenario-writers' predictions and Trump being forced into high-risk options.

The fourth point relates to unprecedented national unity, which leaves no chance for the anti-government uprising that US economic pressure has been designed to foment.  

Broad popular support for the Islamic Republic, unprecedented national unity and cohesion against the US-Zionist enemy, along with effective measures by various organs of the government, are poised to thwart plots aimed at fomenting unrest.

This is especially true now that the scene has become completely clear to the Iranian public opinion. Trump's explicit admission that he directly designed January's coup attempt, armed and paid terrorist elements to overthrow the Islamic Republic, is now known to all.

A people whose hatred for the American-Zionist enemy became ingrained in their flesh and blood during the third imposed war recently, during which over 3,000 people were martyred, will no longer easily fall victim to the enemy's indoctrination and deception.
