No-Surrender Attitude: Ayatollah Khamenei Speaks for Iran
Iran's top leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, categorically rejects any Iranian surrender or concession. - Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, rejects any possibility of Iran yielding or capitulating.
Get ready for some straight talk! Here's the lowdown on the latest political scene, bub. Ayatollah Khamenei, rulin' Iran since 1989, has declared that this nation ain't gonna fold. In a no-holds-barred speech on the telly, he straight up said, "We will never surrender."
Iran's stance is crystal-clear: they won't accept no stinkin' "imposed" war or peace. Khamenei gave a clear warning: any US intervention would bring "irreparable damage."
Meanwhile, ol' Trump, that sly dog, kept mum on whether he'd jump into the Israel-Iran conflict. He just flicked his hair back and said, "I could do it, I could also not do it." In Washington, he grinned and said the Iranians are in a pickle and they wanna talk peace. When the press bit him about whether the Iranian leaders ever got in touch, he gave a sly wink and said, "Yep."
Trump's revved up his game against Tehran and consulted with his National Security Council. On his social network, he posted, "Surrender's not an option, but for now, we ain't planning on whackin' Khamenei."
Experts say Uncle Sam might drop some bunker-bustin' bombs on underground nuke facilities in Iran, but it's unclear if Trump's got the cojones for it. Representation from the US government said the situation changes "hourly," and Trump's keepin' all his options remain on the table.
Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul (CDU) urged Tehran to get back to the negotiating table. He said, "It's never too late to talk if you come with good intentions."
Last Friday, Israel launched a massive attack on Iran, bombin' nuclear facilities and military installations, and choppin' up a few high-rankin' military fellas and nuclear scientists. Iran shot back with rocket and drone attacks on targets in Israel.
Newsies heard some big explosions in Tehran Wednesday, with clouds of smoke hoverin' over the city. Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz announced fighter jets decimated the headquarters for internal security in Iran, snuffin' out the most important repression organ of Khamenei. The Israel military reported attacks on "military targets" in Tehran earlier.
Already in the wee hours of Tuesday to Wednesday, dozens of Israeli fighters reportinly bombed more targets around Tehran. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said two buildin's in the suburb of Karaj, where centrifuge components were makin', were reduced to rubble. In Tehran, a buildin' got hit where modern centrifuge rotors were produced and tested.
Centrifuges help produce nuclear fuel for reactors and weapons. Western states and Israel accuse Iran of rampin' up their uranium enrichment to build a nuclear bomb. Iran denies the claim.
On Wednesday, Iran fired some supersonic missiles at Israel, hard to intercept due to their speed and maneuverability. The Revolutionary Guards said the missiles were shootin' at Tel Aviv. No hits were reportin' there, but the Israeli air defense was busy defendin' the skies. Israel's army shot down ten Iranian drones.
