In this Worthy News article, Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is portrayed as using religiously charged war rhetoric against the United States and Israel while ordinary Iranians remain trapped behind a deepening internet blackout.
- Khamenei reportedly used posts on X to frame Iran’s conflict with the United States and Israel as part of a “Third Sacred Defense,” language one counterterrorism analyst said amounts to invoking jihad.
- Dr. Omar Mohammed of George Washington University’s Program on Extremism told Fox News Digital that Khamenei’s language should be understood as more than political messaging, calling it a declaration of holy war.
- The article highlights the hypocrisy of Iran’s leadership using X to speak globally while many Iranians are blocked from freely accessing outside news, communicating with family, or sharing events inside the country.
- Khamenei’s rhetoric comes after President Donald Trump reportedly called off a planned U.S. strike on Iran on May 18, citing serious negotiations with key Middle Eastern allies.
- Washington is still insisting Iran abandon any path toward nuclear weapons, even as Tehran continues to posture against America and Israel.
- The article says Iran’s internet blackout has lasted more than four months and is costing the country’s economy roughly $250 million per day.
- Online businesses, banking, shipping, and communications have reportedly been hammered by the blackout, compounding the pressure of war, sanctions, inflation, and isolation.
- Khamenei also urged Iranians to increase the population as part of building a “new Islamic-Iranian civilization,” reinforcing concerns that Tehran’s ambitions extend beyond conventional geopolitics.
- The larger warning is that Iran’s regime appears to be driven not merely by military calculation but by a revolutionary Islamic ideology that casts America and Israel as permanent enemies.
