Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Warns of New Weapons and Targets if U.S. Attacks Resume

Before committing to another round of strikes, the burden should fall on proving the threat is direct and compelling enough to justify what could follow. Mohebbi's warning that new weapons, altered targets, a widened geographic scope, and readiness for a long-term war would meet renewed U.S. action leaves the shape of any response uncertain, so the case for restraint rests on that very uncertainty. An open-ended commitment should never be entered without a clear-eyed reckoning of how far it might spread.
