US and Israel’s Threats of Attacking Iran: Four Possible Scenarios and Iran’s Comprehensive Preparedness

Shiite News: According to Iranian affairs analyst Saeed Shahriari Farahani, the current tensions involving the United States and Israel against Iran are not limited to the military front but constitute a broader hybrid conflict involving security, economic, informational and psychological pressure. In order to understand what the analyst describes as the adversaries’ intentions in light of military activities in the region, the global economy, and developments in Ukraine and Taiwan, it is necessary to assess the situation from multiple dimensions.

According to the analysis, four possible scenarios may be under consideration for potential action against Iran. The first option would be a limited strike against an important military or strategic target in an attempt to create the perception of a political success. The second scenario would involve a broader military operation targeting military facilities as well as energy and economic infrastructure. However, according to the analysis, such an action could trigger a regional response with serious consequences for global energy markets and the countries carrying out the attack.

The third possible course would involve an apparent diplomatic initiative while simultaneously increasing economic, informational and psychological pressure behind the scenes in an effort to complicate Iran’s internal decision-making environment. The fourth scenario would involve cyber operations, the dissemination of false information and covert tactics designed to launch a surprise attack and create disorder by exploiting the element of surprise.

However, the article argues that Iran’s leadership, armed forces and population remain alert and prepared in the face of these scenarios. It maintains that the key question is not simply whether a war will take place, but whether Iran is prepared across multiple fronts, from missiles and drones to cyber and economic capabilities. According to the analysis, any aggression against Iran could trigger a response that would challenge the assumptions and calculations of those initiating such an action.
