OPINION OF ONE OF THE SIMURG ADMINS
Opinion
The statement by the Presidium of the Assembly of Experts in Iran is both timely and interesting.
It basically tells everyone to fall in line or else.
It means that the establishment has put behind the chaos of the likes of Ghalibaf and Pezeshkian doing whatever that they wanted on Zarif’s advice and claiming force majeure -including twice accepting ceasefires without consultation with the Leader Imam Mojtaba Khamenei.
The political establishment of the Islamic Republic received a major wake-up call when more than 43 million people attended the martyred Leader Seyed Ali Hossieni Khamenei’s funeral procession.
It was reminded that the Revolution is and remains of the people and without their support, they would be history.
Just as the late Leader predicted before his martrydom, the fitna (conspiracy) of certain authorities is being unravelled by the populace.
All signs are pointing at a consolidation of powers by the Jurisprudence under the leadership of Imam Mojtaba Khamenei, to once again lead the nation and reinvigorate the forces of the Resistance.

The Ghalibaf slander needs to stop. He is not a reformer or an appeaser. The project to build multiple underground “Missile Cities” was pushed for and overseen by Ghalibaf when he was Aerospace commander of the IRGC. He is a major part of why Iran is doing so well.
He has said negotiations are a tool that is used to solidify the gains made on the battle field and that both war and words need to be used to secure peace and each needs to be used at the right time. This is just realism. Every war ends with negotiations.
Some quotes: “Our experience of negotiations with the Americans has always been met with failure and breach of promise”. “Based on our experiences from the past two conflicts, we have no trust in the opposing side” “If you do not have the will or the ability to fulfill your commitments, then there is no point in talking about continuing down this path” “only those who are prepared for war can engage in negotiation with Washington”
It seems to me that words can’t change anything. They merely reflect reality, they do not create it.
It’s war, and other material realities, that determine the words.
