Iran Isn’t Panicking. Washington Is Hunting for a Trophy. A former Mossad official just said the quiet part out loud: Iran is “quite calm,” and the regime still has the upper hand. That alone should ruin the fantasy that this war is a clean sprint to victory. According to Zohar Palti, Tehran is coordinating across fronts, pressuring Israel, managing choke points in the Strait of Hormuz, and keeping oil markets on a leash. Washington, by contrast, looks like it wants a single shiny object it can hold up and call success — 400 kilos of uranium, 90 percent of oil exports, something small enough to fit on a podium. That is the whole American war logic in one sentence: not strategy, not peace, but a scoreboard. Palti’s warning is brutal: Iran is too big, too layered, and too industrial for the Iraq-style fantasy crowd to flatten it in a weekend. Yet the same people who sell “decisive victory” keep reaching for the same old script — pressure, spectacle, then a rushed deal nobody believes in. So the real question is not whether Iran can be contained by force. It’s whether Washington still confuses a headline with a win. #Iran#Trump#Mossad#war#oil 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸
