Lebanese Expert: Iran Prevents Zionist-Western Domination Project in Region

Iran's Stability: A Barrier to Western Expansion
Saadi emphasized that the war demonstrated the strength and resilience of Iran's political system, which relies on genuine popular support, showcasing national solidarity in defending the country's sovereignty and independence. He added, "Iran emerged from this war stronger and more vigilant, solidifying its stance against global arrogance."
He described Iran's position in regional equations as unshakeable, asserting that the Zionist regime cannot dominate the region given the Islamic Republic of Iran's power and alliances. This objective, pursued by the West after Operation "Al-Aqsa Flood" on October 7, 2023, was thwarted. Saadi unequivocally stated, "The dagger of Western expansion shattered when it reached the Islamic Republic of Iran, and this irrational expansion was halted."
Iran's Leadership in a Multipolar World
Saadi identified Iran as the only fully sovereign country in the Islamic world, controlling its political decisions and natural resources. He cited Iran's international achievements, including the 2015 nuclear deal, as evidence of its strengthened position against attempts to undermine its sovereignty.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran's steadfastness has even encouraged China and Russia to propose alternative projects to U.S. global influence," Jihad Saadi noted. He highlighted Iran's current role in leading international efforts to break away from American and Western spheres of influence, evident in recent BRICS and Shanghai Cooperation Organization summits. He described Iran's international standing as "leadership in every sense of the word."
Western Aggression and the Threat to Islam
Saadi characterized the recent aggression as "American with a Zionist facade," stating that the Zionist regime "collapsed" strategically after October 7, 2023, prompting the West to mobilize all resources to save this symbol of its regional dominance. He called the West inherently violent and aggressive, asserting, "Its existence is based on violence."
He views the Islamic Republic of Iran's model as the greatest threat to Western global domination, warning that Western aggression against Iran will continue in various forms. According to him, supporting Iran benefits all Islamic countries because it plays a leading role in confronting the West. He called Western-allied Gulf countries "American-Western kitchens," claiming they are deceived into believing that eliminating the Iranian model benefits them, when in reality, Iran's fall would weaken the entire Islamic world.
Gaza War: A Project to Eradicate Palestine
Saadi dismissed Trump's statements about wanting to end the Gaza war as "demagoguery," emphasizing that the war on Gaza is fundamentally an American war aimed at "completely eradicating the Palestinian issue" through forced displacement and genocidal crimes. He labeled both the U.S. and the Zionist regime "criminal organizations" that ignite wars to plunder the Islamic world's resources. Saadi warned, "The only way to stop these wars is through force and power."
Hezbollah's Status and the Need for Deterrence
Assessing Hezbollah's situation, Saadi acknowledged the impact of its leaders' martyrdom but noted that the movement has successfully reorganized its structures and remains an effective player in Lebanon with strong popular backing. He added that the increasing Zionist regime aggressions against Lebanon strengthen Hezbollah's justification for using its power to create deterrence, making a "strategic and opportune moment" for Hezbollah to reassert itself necessary.
Jihad Saadi concluded, "The war has effectively been declared, and the West is waging it on all fronts." He asserted that the West's ultimate goal is to "eradicate everything related to Islam," warning that if the Islamic nation remains unaware and paralyzed, it should expect widespread negative consequences.
