Iran-Israel Conflict: Amid the escalating military tensions between Iran and Israel, the prospect of direct US involvement has become increasingly likely. In response to US President Donald Trump's recent aggressive remarks, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has issued a stern warning. The 86-year-old leader declared that any direct military intervention by the United States would have grave consequences—ones that would be irreversible and impossible to compensate for.
Khamenei Responds to Trump’s Threat
Recently, President Trump demanded Iran’s "unconditional surrender" and even stated, “We know where Khamenei is hiding, but we’re not planning to eliminate him—yet.” In a sharp rebuttal, Ayatollah Khamenei responded, “Those who understand Iran’s history do not speak the language of threats.”
Khamenei emphasized that the Iranian nation will neither bow to an imposed war nor accept any peace agreement that is forced upon them. Commending the resilience and courage of the Iranian people, he said their determination in the face of Israeli aggression is a true reflection of Iran’s national strength.
A Direct Warning to Israel
In a strong message to Israel, Khamenei condemned the recent violation of Iran’s airspace, calling it a serious transgression of the nation’s “red line.” He warned that those who cross this boundary will not be forgiven and that Israel would face severe consequences for its actions.
He further stated that Iran’s military capabilities ensure the country's self-reliance and confidence and asserted that the sacrifices of Iranian martyrs will not go in vain. Urging national unity, Khamenei said the collective strength of the Iranian people remains the country’s greatest asset.
US Weighing Military Options
Meanwhile, the US administration is actively evaluating possible responses. According to sources close to the White House, President Trump and his senior advisors are discussing several military strategies, including joint strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities in coordination with Israel. However, no official decision has been announced yet.
Iran Holds US Responsible for Israeli Attacks
Iran’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ali Bahreini, issued a direct warning to Washington, stating that any American participation in military aggression would provoke a firm retaliatory response from Tehran. He further accused the United States of already playing a complicit role in Israel’s ongoing attacks, claiming that America’s strategic involvement is evident and can no longer be denied.
West Asia on the Brink of Major Conflict
The situation in West Asia is becoming increasingly volatile. While Israel continues to target Iranian military and nuclear sites, Iran has adopted a more aggressive posture in response. With US intervention looming, the conflict threatens to escalate into a broader regional war—one that could reshape global geopolitics and send economic shockwaves around the world.
