Iran probes public war burden
The article revolves around the current situation in Iran, where the regime faces an internal and external battle concerning military escalation, economic pressures, and indirect negotiations with the United States. The Iranian regime seeks to engineer a period of tension in order to prolong the timeline without resorting to full-scale war, leveraging the Strait of Hormuz as a pressure card against Washington. At the same time, it fears an internal social explosion that could threaten the stability of its rule. Recent movements suggest that Maliki Khamenei is attempting to reorganize the decision-making center for security in the face of these challenges, amid increasing concerns that the lasting effects of economic crises—such as the gasoline shortage and declining purchasing power—could lead to internal uprisings. The regime is trying to balance between negotiation and escalation to maintain its authority amid rising popular unrest and diminishing endurance, while continuing military and security actions to control the streets and prevent internal anger from spiraling out of control.
