Since the beginning of last March, we have been hearing the refrain “Mission accomplished,” and Donald Trump continues to echo in our ears: “We destroyed the Iranian navy, and we destroyed vital facilities in Iran.” Such falsehoods do not deceive children—so how could they deceive adults?
Trump’s aggressive military policy has only increased the isolation of his rogue state. It is now America and the Zionists who stand outside the law, not Iran. Iran endures with its state and its system, and this is a constant that will not be shaken by aggression, a ground invasion, or any other hostile act.
What Trump and his likes—among both Republicans and Democrats—have not understood, and will not understand, is that the Al-Aqsa Flood has put an end to a worn-out and unjust global order, one that has caused wars and claimed millions of victims. The policy of imposing power and their fabricated “truths” will not succeed, God willing. The Islamic world is the cradle of revelation, divine messages, and civilization.
The problem with Trump and Western policy as a whole is that they exploit, in the worst possible way, this prolonged period of our decline. Yet no condition lasts forever. Iran, through its system, has demonstrated a fundamental truth: reliance on one’s own capacities—through scientific and technological development—and the grounding in solid state institutions within the political landscape provide a resilience that the fragmented Arab order lacks, as it remains bound to a policy of dependence on stronger powers.
This is the most important lesson to be drawn from the current aggression against Iran: Trump is a man who comes and goes, while permanence belongs to God, and then to the most worthy.
