The world held its breath as the middle east’s military superpowers headed towards a conflagration that would have ignited the entire region, and quite possibly triggered world war three. Then, just as suddenly, it was all over.
What on earth was Tehran thinking?

As an Iranian who opposes the regime, let me answer that question: 9:10 The borders of Iran hold immense significance for the majority of people.

Instead of engaging Iran directly or supporting the division of Iran, the West should focus on diplomacy and addressing issues outside of borders. It's crucial to understand that the people of Iran have a deep love for their homeland and are willing to defend every inch of it with their lives.
