Iran ready to strike back, stronger than ever, says lawmaker

Iran’s armed forces are stronger and better prepared to respond to potential threats than ever before, said Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesman for the Iranian parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee.

In a post published on X, Rezaei argued that maintaining peace and stability requires military preparedness, stating that “the path to peace and stability lies through war,” Caliber.Az reports.

نباید دچار #خطای_محاسباتی شد. راه آرامش و ثبات از درون جنگ می‌گذرد. اگر خودتان را برای پاسخ قاطع به دشمن آماده نکنید جنگ درب خانه‌تان را خواهد زد.
نیروهای مسلح ما پس از سکوت صحنه نبرد، بر قوت‌هایشان افزوده و آسیب‌هایشان را هم برطرف کرده‌اند.
ما قوی‌تر از نهم اسفند آماده پاسخ…

“There must be no miscalculation,” he wrote. “The path to peace and stability lies through war. If you do not prepare for a decisive response against the enemy, war itself will come knocking at your door.”

Rezaei said Iran’s armed forces had significantly strengthened their capabilities and addressed previous vulnerabilities during the recent lull in hostilities.

“Following the lull on the battlefield, our Armed Forces have multiplied their strength and eliminated their vulnerabilities,” he stated. “We are ready to respond and are stronger than ever before — stronger than on February 27.”

He added that Iran would continue its stance until its adversaries reconsider their approach.

“We will not remain silent until the enemy regrets its actions and changes its mental and strategic calculations,” Rezaei said.
