🇺🇸 🇮🇷 TRUMP FELL FOR NETANYAHU'S PITCH FOR ATTACKING IRAN Professor Foad Izadi talked about how Trump chose to dismiss his own intelligence community’s assessment that Iran has no nuclear weapons program in favor of Netanyahu's narrative. Foad emphasized the failure to predict the closure of the Strait of Hormuz was a symptom of the same, with Iran embarrassing Trump on the military front hours after he suggested they could do nothing to the U.S. Air Force. Professor Izadi stressed that ignoring expert data has led to a much more prolonged and dangerous conflict. "He thought the war would be finished in 3 days. Even the intelligence community told him about the consequences." فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🇮🇷 A ceasefire on paper means nothing if accepting responsibility for a strike would officially break it. Tehran University professor Foad Izadi just explained the legal tightrope Iran is walking. "The English translation of the tape would be shots that come out of the blue or out of nowhere. This is the terminology that is used when shots are fired and nobody is taking responsibility for it." If you want to understand Iranian strategy, start by learning Farsi. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🇮🇱🇱🇧 IRAN-BASED PROFESSOR: HEZBOLLAH IS A PRODUCT OF ISRAELI AGGRESSION Tehran Uni Professor Foad Izadi explained that Hezbollah was originally created in response to Israeli aggression in the 1980s. Izadi argues that the group has been incredibly patient despite constant ceasefire violations by Israel. While critics claim Lebanon was "dragged" into war, Foad suggests that the assassination of Iranian leadership gave the group a sovereign reason to respond. Professor Izadi believes that the lack of ethical standards in Israeli warfare is the true cause of the massacres seen in Lebanon today. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 IRAN-BASED PROFESSOR: IRAN HAS BEEN FORCED INTO A REGIONAL WAR Tehran Uni Professor Foad Izadi argued that Iran has been forced to endure severe regional tensions with Gulf states. When the U.S. establishes bases in Gulf states, destabilization of the Middle East could be inevitable when the U.S. carries out strikes in the region. "If they don't attack these sites, they will be used for attacks tomorrow, so they need to be taken out today." فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇦🇪 The narrative that Iran is behind every single shadow strike in the Gulf is officially falling apart under close scrutiny. Analyzing recent regional escalations, Professor Foad Izadi notes that mysterious strikes on neutral territory like Oman are much more likely to be warning shots from the West or its allies. The prominent professor explains that regional patience with endless diplomacy has completely evaporated, especially after American intelligence saw real military movements that forced the White House to frantically walk back its aggressive posture. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸 The war against Iran may be a war on Islam. Prof. Foad Izadi argued that Israel and America's opposition to the Iranian regime could largely be understood as one of opposing a religion that makes western influence in the Middle East too strenuous.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Tehran Prof. Foad Izadi argues the military campaign against Iran failed, and Iran knows it. 47 years of sanctions, covert ops, and sustained bombardment couldn't break them. They kept firing throughout. It was the other side that went through Pakistan to ask for the ceasefire. Most Iranians didn't want the fighting to stop. "Iran was ready to continue." Professor Izadi suggests more attacks will occur before the U.S. midterms. Washington has a two-year window to try again. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Prof. Foad Izadi of the University of Tehran says any serious deal with Iran will collapse in the U.S. Congress. Key issues like nuclear limits, sanctions relief, Strait tolls, and Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon all hit the same wall. He argues Netanyahu has influence across both parties, and points to 2018 as proof, when Trump withdrew from a signed agreement. Iran, in his view, has no reason to trust Washington.

While long-term border drawdowns remain on the table, Izadi makes it clear: A complete cessation of hostilities in Lebanon must happen first before any deeper territorial compromises can even be discussed. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Prof. Foad Izadi of the University of Tehran says the only path to Iran-U.S. normalization runs through Israel and two states isn't the endpoint he sees. As younger Americans who back Palestine move into power, U.S. support for Israel erodes. Without American weapons and cover, he argues Israel follows post-apartheid South Africa toward a one-state, one-vote outcome. Zohran Mamdani's rise is an early sign of that generational shift. "Israel without the United States is nothing." فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🚨 🇱🇧 The high-stakes geopolitical fallout from the recent Middle East violence is hitting a breaking point. Now, regional actors draw an absolute line in the sand over Lebanon. Respected political analyst Professor Foad Izadi states that Tehran will refuse to sit by while Israeli ministers allegedly plot a Gaza-style campaign across their northern border. Dr. Izadi is clear: the new memorandum of understanding was specifically signed to build severe diplomatic leverage, giving Trump a clear ultimatum to finally restrain its ally or face a barrage of ballistic missiles. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 The geopolitical landscape of the Persian Gulf is reaching an absolute boiling point as regional dynamics shift away from traditional frameworks. While Western analysts float rumors of an imminent diplomatic breakthrough, the reality on the ground remains incredibly tense with fighter jets scrambled, heavy GPS jamming active, and military forces locked on absolute high alert. Professor Foad Izadi explains that the strategic calculus has fundamentally altered, making a simple return to the prewar status quo impossible for Tehran. He emphasizes that for any framework to hold, the U.S. must completely abandon its illegal financial blockades, return frozen funds to the Iranian people, and ensure lasting security guarantees across both Iran and Lebanon rather than forcing a volatile state of no war no peace. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi

Prof. Foad Izadi (فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi) | Foreign Policy Expert | American Studies at the University of Tehran: A fatwa by Iran's previous leadership prohibits nuclear weapons. The US intelligence community's own 2025 Threat Assessment confirms: Iran has no nuclear weapons, no nuclear weapons program, & Iranian leaders have not decided to pursue one. Trump dismissed his own intelligence community & sided with Netanyahu's version. Countries with nuclear weapons don't get attacked by the US. North Korea is the clearest example. So the question is growing in Iran - why not build nuclear weapons after being attacked? It's not illegal internationally. It only becomes illegal under the Non Proliferation Treaty - and Article 10 allows members to exit. Public opinion in Iran is increasingly pushing for it. The religious ruling still holds - but this is a live debate, especially after the attacks Iran has suffered.

🎥 Will Iran Abandon Nuclear Restraint? For decades, Iran has refrained from developing nuclear weapons—not because it lacked the technical capacity, but because of a deliberate political and religious decision. A fatwa from the Supreme Leader declared nuclear arms forbidden under Islam. But after the U.S. and Israel bombed three Iranian nuclear sites this weekend—sites under regular IAEA inspection—that restraint is now under serious strain. “There are people in Iran asking that question right now,” Dr. Foad Izadi told Drop Site’. The question: What’s the point of cooperation? Izadi noted that two nuclear-armed states just launched an unprovoked attack on a non-nuclear country, without credible evidence of a weapons program. He pointed to the U.S. intelligence community’s own March report, which states: ➤ Iran does not have a nuclear weapon. ➤ Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program. ➤ Iranian leaders have not made a decision to pursue one. Even IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi, Izadi said, has consistently affirmed: “We have never found a nuclear weapons program in Iran.” Yet, Iran was bombed anyway. Izadi explained that the IAEA report cited by Western governments referenced materials from 20 to 30 years ago—files Iran believed were closed under the 2015 nuclear deal. Tehran now suspects Mossad may have planted radioactive traces to fabricate suspicion and justify military strikes. “There’s a lot of confusion and disinformation,” he said. But for many Iranians, the conclusion is simple: Iran upheld its obligations—and was attacked regardless. That, Izadi points out, is forcing a national reckoning with the logic of nuclear restraint.

Dr. Foad Izadi, a professor of international studies, explains that the major security decision to back the new memorandum of understanding was fully handled and voted on by the President-led National Security Council. While leadership remains highly skeptical that Trump will just break its promises like it did in 2018, Izadi notes that they are cautiously moving forward with their eyes wide open. فواد ایزدی Foad Izadi
