The surface statement is full of hostility, but before actually taking action, everyone has to weigh their options—Is Iran encouraging its own people or truly preparing to flip the table?

Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei issued a written statement on Army Day, stating that the navy is fully prepared and ready to deliver a "new crushing defeat" to the enemy. He congratulated the officers, soldiers, and their families, saying that with the support of the people, the Iranian military is fighting alongside other armed forces, launching fierce strikes against the United States and Israel, exposing their weakness and shamelessness. He expressed condolences for the fallen and pledged to double efforts to enhance the military's capabilities and take necessary measures.
