Recent remarks from members of the Iranian regime’s parliament have laid bare a growing frustration in Tehran over its failure to decisively respond to the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. <\/span><\/p>\n

During a public session on September 29, <\/span>Mohammad Manan Raisi,<\/span><\/a> a member of Iran\u2019s parliament, openly criticized this inaction, suggesting it has severely damaged morale within the regime. \u201cMore than two months have passed since the Supreme Leader\u2019s call for blood vengeance for martyr Haniyeh, and we still haven\u2019t seen any effective movement,\u201d Raisi lamented. He warned that this lack of response has “melted public trust in the regime both inside the country and across the Islamic world.”<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mousa Mousavi<\/span><\/a>, another MP, expressed similar concerns, arguing that Tehran’s hesitance only encourages its adversaries. \u201cIf the proper revenge for the blood of Haj Qasem Soleimani had been taken, would the enemy have dared to continue its assassination campaign against the resistance front?\u201d he questioned. Mousavi further emphasized, \u201cThe continued delay in responding to these attacks is allowing the Zionist enemy to cross our red lines step by step.\u201d His remarks underscored the regime\u2019s growing fear that its failure to act decisively is leaving it vulnerable on multiple fronts, domestically and internationally. \u201cThe equation of war is very clear: if we do not strike, we will be struck,\u201d Mousavi concluded, articulating the regime\u2019s internal fears.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the same session, MP Mohammadreza <\/span>Sabbaghian Bafghi displayed<\/span><\/a> the regime’s utter desperation with a veiled threat to develop nuclear weapons, stating, “I have one point to make to the state leadership. In my view, Iran\u2019s strong response to the U.S., Israel, and their supporters is to arm itself with the weapons they possess but we currently lack.”<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
