A senior official in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says the US made a “strategic miscalculation” during its war on Iran by assuming that the assassination of Tehran’s leadership, attacks on political and security structures, and attempts to create chaos would bring down the authorities, state broadcaster Press TV reports.
IRGC Deputy Commander for Political Affairs Brigadier General Yadollah Javani says the US failed because they did not consider the resilience of the Iranian people.
“The enemy imagined that with the martyrdom of the Leader of the Revolution, striking political and security structures, and creating chaos in the streets, it could tear the system apart, but this calculation did not match the reality of the Iranian society,” he adds.
