Regarding the recent clash between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Israel, I want to
explore the main aspects that make them more aggressive and harsh toward each other. First and
foremost, the Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly rejected Western sympathy toward the
Iranian nation, as well as exposed Western intervention inside Iran.The current leader of the
Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, not only did not step back from his principles
but also showed how to stand before illegitimate and double-standard countries.He is a symbol
of honour and pride for the world of humanity in this critical and unbearable atmosphere.Many
of us have been inspired and encouraged by his strong determination, perseverance and profound
speeches.The people of Iran have protested in favour of the current regime despite countless
pressures, sanctions, inflation, and unemployment within all provinces, whereas the Iranian
government has limited time to maintain its power due to inflation, instability, and uncertainty
across the provinces.
On one hand, Iran has suffered a lot in terms of economic, political, and sociological
issues; on the other hand, there are other countries as well, such as Iraq, Libya, Yemen, and
Venezuela.They were prosperous countries in terms of minerals, oil, and precious stones, but all
resources were snatched by power in the name of security threats,mass destruction,and killers of
the people, totally rubbish and baseless narrations narrated by Western democracy. Can Western
countries apply their ideologies and theories over sovereign countries? Aren’t they using their
power to capture freedom of expression, justice, and moral responsibility? Is it justified to
sanctionalize and bomb when you get a position or power? Well, all these questions seem
philosophical and ideological when you are at the peak. However, so far, Western sympathy and
ideologies are not given importance or acceptance by the Iranian people.
Conflict with Israel
The uprising of war between Israel and Iran, a close American ally,and Palestine militant
group Hamas in October 2023 has escalated tensions between Iran and Israel.Firstly,Hamas
groups suddenly fired ballistic missiles at Israel and US airbases in Iraq and Syria.In response,
the US and Israeli Governments started airstrikes on multiple and crucial places in Iran and
outside Iran from October to February 2024.The Houthis officially known as Ansar Allah in
Yemen and Hezbollah in Lebanon both worked within Iran’s axis of resistance and also launched
several strikes toward Israel.The scenario quickly began to change after strikes by Hezbollah
from Beirut.The clash between Iran and Israel moved from indirect to direct exchange of
strikes.The first attack by the Israeli side targeted the Iranian consulate in Damascus,
Syria,killing a general and several military leaders.In response,Iran retaliated by attacking Israel
with over three hundred missiles for the first time.Again,Israel illegally targeted the leaders of
Hamas,Ismail Haniyah and Yahya Sinwar,and the leader of Hezbollah,Hassan Nasrallah,and
many other leaders in Lebanon.
After the US election in 2025, Donald Trump was elected as the 45th President of the
United States of America.“He won over them using a peaceful excuse but forgot after he won.”
Trump showed his power toward Iran and resumed ramped-up pressure against the Iranian
state,while slowly adopting a negotiation approach on Iran’s nuclear program. Whereas Israel has
consistently opposed negotiations and maintained a strong intention to dismantle Iran’s nuclear
program.Eventually,Israel succeeded in provoking the United States by taking long-standing
action against Iran to demilitarise and make it a non-nuclear state.Iran has not only pursued a
nuclear program since 2000 but has gone after nuclear development since approximately the
1960s, with diversified levels of success.During the war with Iraq and several other
countries,Iran showed interest in developing nuclear weapons to ensure its security and peaceful
sovereignty,but unfortunately Iran has not succeeded in this mission so far.Iran faced sanctions
again in 2018 when the Trump administration reimposed sanctions and demanded that Iran
surrender its nuclear power. “Until detached from its nuclear program, sanctions will not be
removed from Iran.” US sanctions have impacted Iran severely,causing the worst economic crisis
in more than thirty years by cutting oil and mineral exports to international markets.
The Trump administration has exerted force and threatened to bring Iran to the negotiating
table,while Iran either denied or resisted US demands regarding its nuclear
program.Moreover,the main issue Iran is confronted with is its economy.Despite facing US
sanctions for a long time,the impact on Iran’s economy has been severe.Iran has also faced
economic corruption,and the bad economic situation has badly affected the purchasing power of
the people.All tests have been done by Western powers through economic and military actions
against Iran, but the real determination of the Iranian people cannot be bought or erased by
so-called superpowers and double-standard countries.I must call the hero of this era is the
Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has never shown tiredness or
hopelessness on his face even at the age of 86.
Lastly, my suggestion to our Muslim brothers and sisters is to galvanise and support
Muslim countries,whether you are “Shia” or “Sunni” rather than living under Western
pressure.The Muslim world has already been marginalised and isolated under the eyes of
Western powers.They feel that the Muslim world is aimless, lacking productivity, and
meaningless. Therefore, Muslim countries need strong organisations within the Muslim world to
become financially, morally, and economically independent . In addition, Europe and the US
considered themselves superior, developed , rich in culture , science and technology and have
justified their illegitimate action towards an oriental country such as Africa , south asian and
middle east countries. In fact, it is a simple way for them to judge the other through their biased
and prejudiced lense even though the others are more sophisticated than the west . The main
factor behind this control and hatred was the war of independence in 1857. The British decided
to believe that the muslims were responsible for the anti british government therefore they had
looked upon the muslim as their enemies because they have ousted them from power .With the
rebellion of 1857 this feeling was intensified and attempt was made to destroy and the suppress
the muslim power and rule from the edge of the world.Therefore;
Iqbal says:
ایک ہوں مسلم حرم کی پاسبانی کے لیے
نیل کے ساحل سے لے کر تا بالک کاشغر

“Let all Muslims stand as one body to guard the sacred sanctuary of Islam from the shores
of the Nile to the far reaches of Kashgar.”Iqbal is calling for absolute unity, collective
strength,and unwavering loyalty among Muslims across all lands. He rejects borders, race,and
geography,demanding a single,unbreakable front to defend the honour, faith, and core values of
Islam.The founder of Pakistan,Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah,also speaks of
integrity:“Come forward as servants of Islam,organise the people economically, socially,
educationally,and politically, and I am sure that you will be a power that will be accepted by
everybody.” We need strength, we need independence ,we need a peaceful atmosphere to safe
and secure the whole new generation .
