Losing patience!
Tehran could not continue to cling to “strategic patience,” and its threats, intimidation, and narratives were put to the real test, after they became a shackle around its neck, and it did not know when it would be pressed.
Iran's test was not only from those who defend its positions, support it, and bet on the "unity of arenas" that it has patented, but also from its audience, which has begun to sweat with shame from the embarrassment of its position, by continuing to swallow its tongue in the face of every blow that detracts from its balance and erodes its prestige.
To restore prestige, one must take risks, and to regain the initiative, one must take the initiative, as long as the enemy does not stop being savage, with strikes that take the form of completely dismantling the effective arms and incubators.
Iran's unprecedented strikes on Israel, with such intensity, will have consequences, and the features of the next stage, and the extent of the shifts, repercussions and outcomes that await the region, will be drawn on the glow of its missiles that illuminated the suffocating darkness of the night.
It is true that Iran is the one who launched the first strike, but the question that arises from among the blood, and the columns of fire and smoke that have been blocking the horizon for a year is: Can Iran avoid the final strike from an enemy that has been luring it in and demanding its response in order to settle its score with it?
The answer to this question remains to be seen in the coming days, and in the background a similar picture appears, drawing maps, terrains and balances in a neighboring region.
