Super Revolutionary or Infiltrator
Super Revolutionary or Infiltrator
After the exchange of letters between the USA and Iran, considering various conditions and avoiding a crisis in the country and the region, a small window for pursuing diplomacy through indirect negotiations has opened.
In such circumstances, where it is unclear what will happen in the coming months, a powerful faction is determined to destroy even this minimal diplomatic opportunity.
Kayhan raised the issue of assassinating Trump in retaliation for the killing of Qasem Soleimani, which reached as far as Fox News.
Naturally, when a newspaper like Kayhan raises such a topic, it is very different from when an ostensibly private radical newspaper brings it up.
When Kayhan writes, even if it is not taken seriously in practice, in media games and political chess, it serves as a trump card in the hands of the opposite side.
It is hard to believe that adopting such a stance, which senior officials of the country abandoned and stopped discussing years ago, accidentally appeared in Kayhan.
Iran is currently facing conditions where it does not have as much room to maneuver as in past years, which is why various governmental and civil society efforts are being made to prevent the country from entering a comprehensive crisis.
Years ago, if during the threat to our country they said all options are on the table, today they openly talk about bombing Iran.
An event whose probability of occurrence is considered low by senior officials, as it would trigger a regional war, but it cannot be excluded from the calculation framework.
If this event happens and a crisis begins, the bomb that is launched at Iranian soil will not ask if you are a reformist, a principalist, or an opponent of the Islamic Republic; it comes to destroy.
In such a situation, when the Americans would not mind dragging the Islamic Republic into cases of assassination attempts on Trump, suddenly the author of the Kayhan dialogue decides to write about emptying a bullet into Trump’s hollow head.
I do not recall a time when Trump was not the President of the USA that this group showed a special interest in taking revenge on him.
But since he has fallen back into the American election marathon, some individuals have reopened this case.
Even when we said we must resolve our issues with America at all costs, they would first bring up the issue of how you want to negotiate with the killer of Qasem Soleimani.
Whether the Islamic Republic can ultimately resolve its issues with the United States or, as Abbas Araghchi puts it, reach a state of tension management is a different subject from the concept of negotiation.
Whether we can ultimately conduct indirect or direct negotiations or no negotiation occurs is, again, a different subject.
If Iran is involved, the fact that the other side ordered the assassination of Qasem Soleimani is not an excuse to block the diplomatic path.
Because beyond diplomacy, there is undoubtedly a crisis; hiding behind this concept is like the usual exploitation of some names and symbols, nothing more.
On the other hand, a minority radical group that calls itself the hard-core supporters of the regime tries from various angles to ensure that Iranian society does not become free of tension.
It doesn’t matter if the excuse in their hands is the law of chastity and hijab or the demand for the execution of Operation Promise of Truth 3.
What matters is that tension is maintained.
They probably hope that through these continuous pressures and tensions, they can catch a big political fish because it is clear that they do not care about the religion of God, the people of God, or the land where these people live.
But they do not realize that today the issue is not the game of politics; the issue is Iran.
All these are optimistic possibilities in a society where many important concepts have become trivialized and manipulated, making it difficult to explain topics like infiltration and espionage.
To explain this concept, the most cliché way is to say read the story of Masoud Kashmiri in Iran’s history and Eli Cohen in Israel’s history to understand how infiltrators present themselves in the most desirable and acceptable way possible to those in power.
I wish we could find the answer to whether we are currently facing foreign infiltration or specific powerful currents behind the revolutionary facade, whether it’s about factional and political interests, or whether people are easily playing with the fate of a country and a nation out of ignorance or miscalculation.
On one hand, we should keep an eye on this group, and on the other hand, on the foreigners who are sharpening their teeth for this country.
Finding the answer to this question will reveal many issues to us.
