Demonstrations challenging Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei have been going on for the past several days. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump warned Khamenei and said that America is ready to help Iran. What will Tehran do if America conducts airstrike in Iran under the guise of protests? Its blueprint has been revealed.
The speaker of Iran’s parliament warned that if the US attacks the Islamic Republic as President Donald Trump has threatened, Tehran will target the US military and Israel. Kalibaf made this threat when MPs in the Iranian Parliament climbed onto the stage shouting slogans of ‘Down with America’.
People living abroad fear that the Internet blockade will embolden radicals within Iran’s security services to launch a bloody crackdown. Even though Trump has warned that he is ready to attack Iran to protect peaceful protesters.
America is ready to help Iran: Trump
Trump supported the protesters and said on social media, ‘Iran may be looking at a freedom never seen before. America is ready to help. The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal quoted officials as saying on Saturday night that Trump had been given military options to attack Iran, but he had not yet taken any final decision.
“Don’t mess with President Trump,” the State Department warned separately. When he promises to do something, he promises to complete it.
Iranian state television broadcast the parliament session live. In his speech, Qalibaf, a hardline leader, praised the police and Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, particularly its volunteer Basij, for “standing firm” during the protests. Let us tell you that Kalibaf himself has contested the presidential elections in Iran.
What will Iran do if America attacks?
He directly described Israel as an occupied territory and threatened the American army. “In the event of an attack on Iran, the occupied territories and all US military centers, bases and ships located in the region will be our legitimate targets,” Qalibaf said. He said that we do not limit ourselves to reacting after an attack and will take action based on any concrete indication of threat.
Meanwhile, Israel is ‘closely monitoring’ the situation between America and Iran. According to news agency AP, Israeli official said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu talked to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio throughout the night on many topics including Iran.
Raza Pahlavi appealed to the protesters
Iran’s exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, who had called for protests on Thursday and Friday, in his new message urged protesters to take to the streets on Sunday. He urged protesters to “assert their right to public spaces” by carrying Iran’s old lion and sun flag and other national symbols used during the Shah’s reign.
When did the protests start in Iran?
Demonstrations began on December 28 in protest against the huge fall in the value of Iran’s currency, the Rial. The value of the rial is more than 1.4 million per dollar and the country’s economy is deeply affected by international sanctions related to the nuclear program. The protests intensified and turned into a demand for a direct challenge to Iran’s religious authority.
