00:00:46Your of headlines on press TV, Iran's security chief tells Press TV
00:00:49that the US response to Tehran's conditions for reopening the straight of
00:00:53Fermous is inadequate and contains ambiguities that must
00:00:57be
00:00:57of clear to all vessels not to turn off their... all vessels not to turn off their
00:01:01navigation systems during Hurmus transit, saying all ships
00:01:05doing this will be considered hostile
00:01:08of and targeted. And Yemani arm forces spokesman says a
00:01:12major wave of long-range
00:01:13of missile and drone strikes has targeted key airports and energy
00:01:18a infrastructure across Saudi
00:01:21of Arabia.
00:01:28of
00:01:37Hello everyone, you're watching Press TV live from the studios in
00:01:41Tehran. Thank you for joining us. Let's
00:01:45begin
00:01:45of with our top story an exclusive interview with Press TV. Iran's top
00:01:49security official says Washington's response to Tehrans seven
00:01:53conditions
00:01:53in a proposal to reopen the
00:01:55of strategic straight off is inadequate. Major
00:01:58of General Mohsen Razi said.
00:02:17a
00:02:20of of
00:02:22of
00:02:30in their response, they have accepted some of our conditions, and there are
00:02:34some ambiguities, therefore, the Americans have responded to
00:02:37us, we are not in the process of responding to the Americans, the
00:02:41Americans have responded to us and we consider their response
00:02:44insufficient. He added
00:02:48that the Americans must remove those parts that are considered ambiguous by
00:02:52Iran, and Tehran is waiting to see whether they can remove those
00:02:56ambiguities before heading to the next
00:02:58of stages. interview Razi said the
00:03:02US has suffered defeat after defeat against Ivan and that's why
00:03:06Washington has turned to economic war against the
00:03:09country.
00:03:13The enemy suffered major defeat in the 12-day war, major defeat in the
00:03:1612-day war, and
00:03:18of then again in
00:03:19the 40-day war. They resorted to naval blockade, but that the launched
00:03:22economic isolation plan. They faced
00:03:24in defeat in almost every single campaign they launched, but we stayed put,
00:03:28pursuing our plans and... realized all those campaigns with accurate
00:03:32planning and
00:03:33of calculations. the general said the
00:03:37US has failed even to end this war of aggression, he stress that the
00:03:41option to end the aggression is in the hands of Iran and Iranians will
00:03:45not stop their resistance until they get what what is
00:03:48rightfully theirs. rai added that the US is the root cause
00:03:52of the problem concerning the straight of Urmus. the general said Iran
00:03:56seeks management
00:03:57of the straight to ensure regional security. especially in the
00:04:01Persian Gulf. He rejected Washington's claim that
00:04:05it is transporting major amounts of oil through the key
00:04:08waterway. Razi said the US is only using smugglers to
00:04:12transport negligable
00:04:13of amounts of oil while the straight remains
00:04:16closed.
00:04:21Now to talk more on this,
00:04:22we have Mr. Sabab Shath with us, author and west Asia expert joining
00:04:26us from Belfast. Mr. Shath, good to see you again, Mr. Shath, it seems that... "the
00:04:30US wants the nuclear issue to be discussed in the
00:04:33negotiations, but Iran is saying that the file is closed, especially for
00:04:37now,
00:04:39of and the US should deal with the hormos
00:04:42of rate, the hormos issue right now with a stop to the
00:04:46aggression and also the blockade
00:04:49in as a prerequisite. hello to
00:04:53of you and your audience, you see the United States of
00:04:56America today, they know that..."
00:05:00Iran won the war and Iran is the one who has
00:05:04escalation dominance in here, not just ability to respond
00:05:08to for that on this and that, so this and
00:05:13so a Trump administration
00:05:16uh they targets today the
00:05:19economical ability of survivor in Iran
00:05:23and they in that way as they trying to
00:05:27create what they call the hyper inflation in
00:05:30Iran they they failed in in doing
00:05:34so since Iran since 1979 is
00:05:38used to the American campaigns.
00:05:42of trying to starg to suffocate the economy in
00:05:46Iran and Iran response to any
00:05:50attempts by the Americans will be devastating and the
00:05:54Americans put lots of scenarios
00:05:57on
00:05:58the on the table, that's before even they today what we
00:06:02hear Trump is saying uh is like
00:06:05something nothing to do with the war, always he repeat
00:06:09the statement that he Iran will not gonna have an'
00:06:12nuclear nuclear arm program or nuclear
00:06:16bomb since day one iran said that to
00:06:20the Americans and on that the GCPA were
00:06:23signed and he come himself negate that
00:06:27signature and Iran confirmed there is religious fatwa
00:06:31by the late martur Khamenei on that and there
00:06:35is commitment to the international community and to the
00:06:39non-bating treaty in iran to come inspect according
00:06:43to that, but the the Trump administration goals and the
00:06:47signist entities goals, the were nothing to do with the
00:06:50nuclear reactor, and they were attacking Iran to
00:06:53do a change regime, to assinate all the leaderships and
00:06:57most them as they did, and then to divide the
00:07:01country among their own alliance so they can suck
00:07:05the world, this is the ambition the United States of
00:07:09America and give dominance in the region under what the... call
00:07:12it the abrahamic ocers or the greater Israel
00:07:16opportunity to rule the area, but in here
00:07:19Iran defeated that program and Iran
00:07:23response today for any escalation from the United States of
00:07:27America is very clear to them
00:07:30to the to the Americans, they they see from the the economical
00:07:34point of view, the the Americans they cannot
00:07:37really sufficate the Iranian economy
00:07:41since Iran 60% per of its oil, it produces
00:07:44goes domestically to the Iran public and to
00:07:48the Iran industry, and that is very cheap
00:07:52compared to the two dollar, two
00:07:55sterling pound liter in the UK or
00:07:59six and a half dollars for a gallon on the
00:08:03United States of America, in Iran, it's pennis, so they
00:08:06cannot stagnate a country,
00:08:10it's provide the wealth. of that country to its
00:08:14people, so they were as American analys, they were
00:08:17saying the Americans maybe will target some of
00:08:21Iranian capabilities of providing such a cheap
00:08:24industry oil to the public and target as
00:08:28well energy industries and in that
00:08:32Iran you know can target
00:08:35one refinery in Saudi Arabia like the Abic
00:08:39Saudi abec they call it it's not that far. from Iran,
00:08:43it's it's American assets, most these refineries
00:08:47and oil industry in these countries and around Iran, they
00:08:51are american assets, and in that this one refinery in
00:08:54Saudi Arabia, I heard American analys speaks about it, they say
00:08:58to provide seven million barrels of oil a
00:09:02day, and that supplies from east to
00:09:06west pipeline, and that the one is
00:09:09is like roughly 5% of... the world
00:09:13energy
00:09:14so in that once Iran who is
00:09:18producing two million roughly and most of it going to the to
00:09:22the domestic market in the a target that
00:09:26what that going to do to the Uniteds of America, the United States of
00:09:30America and all its allies and the international market
00:09:34will suffer hugely and if you allow me in the point of
00:09:38hormos Trump we seen him
00:09:41yesterday big the Russian president Putin for
00:09:4530000 tons of diesel immediately and some for
00:09:49next month before the the midterm election
00:09:53that desperation can show us who
00:09:57is trying to control the hiking prices in the
00:10:00American market before the
00:10:02election who is in control the state of
00:10:06hormones that expose is lies and
00:10:10that the oil and gas in the... is not flowing as he's
00:10:14telling his own people at the same rate as before
00:10:17Iran put its own clutches
00:10:21on the the the straight of horm so he exp.
00:10:25himself to be liar and all this contradiction messages to his
00:10:29own public was only to play the market so he can milk it
00:10:33and he and his kids can make some money. that's exactly right.
00:10:36Mr. Shath, as you talked about the sanctions, the US lapped the
00:10:40harsheous sanctions on Iran for decades and has
00:10:44not made the Iranians yield. But look at what has the
00:10:48oil flow disruptions have done to the world economy so far and
00:10:52how sanctions feel uh... world is a
00:10:55turmoil uh just with one straight closed imagine what
00:10:59happens when you have the barble mendeb and the suis canal clos as well
00:11:03so it's kind of you could say sanctions for sanctions i think we talked about
00:11:07this with uh you and also misdatu i think it was so
00:11:11it's kind of a sanctions for sanctions but it's just like one tenth of what
00:11:14Iranians have felt or even more uh so how does that feel for the
00:11:18world economy and uh the world as well the the the the
00:11:22people around the world yeah see the Americans uh
00:11:26dollars buying power in the United States of America,
00:11:30it's the the people lost 40% their
00:11:34income in in stagnation, economical
00:11:37stagnation and inflation.
00:11:40America is soon enough, it will be the one who wanted to sync
00:11:44Iran in hyper inflation will go into hyper inflation
00:11:48itself, so the American people are panicking in there and
00:11:52they gonna punish Trump for what he did. "this is
00:11:55one of he he was all along when he even
00:11:59signed the mou with Iran in
00:12:02Switzerland in in France sorry in
00:12:05Varsai palace, he was saying he doesn't want to be
00:12:09like president hover who's on his
00:12:13watch in the United States of America last century in the
00:12:1620s went in deep depression and he is pushing
00:12:20America and pushing the international economy the
00:12:24cliff" as well just satisfy the zionist
00:12:28entity, because they control him somehow,
00:12:31you know, everybody can give their own opinion how the United States of
00:12:34America's president being controlled, every American president before
00:12:38him avoided to go to to
00:12:42war with Iran or to listen to Netanyahu to the signist
00:12:46entity, the EU, if you allow me, and the NATO as well
00:12:50refrain from joining joining him and and
00:12:54his adventure. of illegal and criminal war in
00:12:57Iran and they refuse today after what he
00:13:01did and begging Putin for that,
00:13:05they understood the European very well and the
00:13:08NATO that Iran is the winner in here and
00:13:11they were right all along to take the position of not
00:13:15joining and the European powers right now they can
00:13:19see the US it's following the the the the path the
00:13:23British and the French. empire they are disappearing at the
00:13:27time and during the Swiss canal crisis and the
00:13:31Iran created the same moment for the United States of
00:13:34America, another suas canal crisis of 1956
00:13:38happening right now, 2026 by the
00:13:42Iranian, they are burying the backs
00:13:45americana bit by bit, and the European watching
00:13:48that, and the European, they they see the Americans
00:13:52are fleeing, as I mentioned in the show you..." talked about, they are
00:13:56playing the region, they are dismanteling all its spaces in
00:14:00Iraq and Kurdistan and the Gulf states and they
00:14:04are putting some in Jordan, maybe and they will dismantle them and
00:14:08go and inziness entity, so they know this
00:14:12empire, the Yank empire is is diminishing bit by bit
00:14:16is is diminishing bit by bit, and they understand
00:14:19now the regional power, strong regional power, as they
00:14:23say, it's a global... right now, mr. show, think one minute if you
00:14:27can, do you think uh, one thing that the world is paying the price on
00:14:31behalf of Israel, netanyahu, trump's ego, and also the
00:14:34abstinos pockets, and I want to ask you about uh, do you
00:14:38think uh, it's the last chance for Netanyahu and
00:14:41Trump? you see it
00:14:45is, but Netanyahu, his own
00:14:48gang and his own people and the United and the
00:14:52Zinist entity, once they see... him engage in in
00:14:56warfare and in killing and showing a blood
00:15:00as his hands, he gets support and he understand this is the
00:15:04psyche the zinist entity, 95% the
00:15:08population of that entity, they support him in his
00:15:11genocide in Gaza or in any war in
00:15:15Lebanon and genocide in Lebanon annxing parts of
00:15:19Syria, so once they say there is movement and he there
00:15:23is some noise and chatters. in the des entity that saying
00:15:27he is preparing the submarines, the nuclear submarines and
00:15:31the United States of America sending him more than
00:15:336000 GD.
00:15:37which is over 20
00:15:412000 tons to use on Iran
00:15:45and in that they are encouraged and in that maybe he will
00:15:48use that kind of a surprise attack
00:15:52escape from defeating the election those
00:15:55people uh their survivor is more important than to
00:15:59them Netanyahu and Trump then the thank you Mr. Shath

00:19:35Three years after October 7. the questions have only become more
00:19:39explosive: was it a historic strategic shock or a gamble whose
00:19:43consequences reshaped an entire region? an exclusive
00:19:47Beirot interview, the medi stream sits down with Ehsan Ataya,
00:19:50representative the Islamic jihad resistance movement of Palestine for
00:19:54candid conversation about the decisions, calculations,
00:19:58sacrifices and aftermath of October 7th aqsa
00:20:02flood operation. What was the resistance expecting, what
00:20:05did it achieve, what? went wrong and what does the next
00:20:09chapter look like? three years on, the reckoning
00:20:13begins. flood aftermath, this week on the meast
00:20:17stream.
00:20:57Hello and welcome to Unscripted, I'm Kabitato Bay. In this edition the
00:21:01program, we have the pleasure of having with us brigadier uh General Hussein
00:21:05Muhebi. Now he has served in the Islamic Revolutionary guard court, to give you
00:21:09a little bit of background, um, he served as deputy for public relations
00:21:13and command back in the year 1405, the Iranian
00:21:17calendar year, also back in 2012.
00:21:21was active in the cultural and promotional sector the
00:21:24IRGC. now in march of 2015 he was appointed deputy for
00:21:28culture and promotion at the office the leaders representative
00:21:32within the IRGC, and he joins us in this edition
00:21:35the program. welcome to unscripted.
00:21:38in the name of God, the most compassionate, the most merciful, I would
00:21:42like to extend my greetings to you, your respected colleagues
00:21:45and all our dear viewers and listeners. It's a pleasure to be
00:21:49here with. so much for taking the time to talk to us, we're going to start with very important
00:21:53letter uh that was issued by the IRGC, this was something that made
00:21:57lot of news around the world, um, and it was addressed to the
00:22:00American people, from what I understand, given some the details behind
00:22:04this, it was published just very
00:22:07recently, and it was addressed to quote, the honorable people the
00:22:11United States of America, and the people involved were
00:22:15or the people that were addressed to were scholars, students, members the
00:22:18media, and it was pretty...
00:22:50"the United States has at least 200 television channels
00:22:53and at least 100 radio stations, through
00:22:57which it can communicate with our people around the clock. We do
00:23:01not have the same means at our disposal, therefore we
00:23:05decided to convey our message to the American people through
00:23:08letter. Our aim was to shed light on the
00:23:12existing realities and raise awareness among the
00:23:15American public. We believe that the American people are themselves.
00:23:50are largely considered noble values and are cherished
00:23:54by people around the world, but what is actually happening is that the
00:23:57US establishment uses, or more accurately,
00:24:01abuses these values to pursue its own
00:24:04self-interests. for example, in this letter we presented a number
00:24:08of facts and described certain realities. one
00:24:12point we made was that Americans live a country with highly
00:24:16fertile land and abundant water resources.
00:24:20They also have access to substantial energy resources,
00:24:23mineral wealth and underground mineral
00:24:26deposits. With the income they generate, they could enjoy
00:24:30a prosperous country. They also attract talented
00:24:34and educated people from all over the world, benefiting from their
00:24:38intellectual abilities, education, expertise and
00:24:42outstanding skills. Therefore, they could easily enjoy a
00:24:45good standard of living and considerable wealth without
00:24:49having to... invade other countries, but Americans should ask
00:24:53themselves why their country has 39 million
00:24:56people living in poverty. For such a wealthy country, having
00:25:0039 million people in poverty is unacceptable.
00:25:04Why can't they provide a prosperous life for all their
00:25:08citizens? Why can't they establish a good healthcare
00:25:12system? Why can't they, at the very least, improve their
00:25:16people's wellbeing while reducing the gap between rich and poor.
00:25:20"the American people should reflect on these questions, they
00:25:24should also consider why the United States, despite being
00:25:28geographically secure by nature, maintains
00:25:31800 military bases around the world. The
00:25:35oceans surround the United States and its neighbors, both
00:25:39on land and at sea, do not possess significant
00:25:42military or security capabilities that would threaten
00:25:46it. So why does America have 800 military?
00:25:50bases worldwide, what possible justification is
00:25:54there for maintaining so many bases across the globe, and
00:25:58why does the US military need a budget of 1.1
00:26:02trillion?
00:26:32ruling establishment itself and his partners, including those in
00:26:36Israel and those who support zinanism. the american
00:26:40people should reflect on these issues. they should also ask
00:26:43themselves why for the past 47 years
00:26:47people in Iran have been chanting death to america.
00:26:51are they doing so without reason? why have the Iranian people
00:26:55become hostile toward the United States? are the Iranian
00:26:59people enemies the American people? absolutely?
00:27:33the things the American people
00:27:36These are need to know,
00:27:36insured and
00:27:40without going into too much detail, we want the
00:27:44American people to understand the realities and
00:27:47recognize that the ruling establishment, its members are
00:27:51pursuing, its members are pursuing their own interests
00:27:55and seeking to enrich themselves, they should also
00:27:58look at what is being reported in the media these days.
00:28:11in the nearly two years has been in office. this so-called
00:28:14increase in wealth, this dramatic surge in personal
00:28:18fortune is result these very policies and these
00:28:22acts of aggression. so you see the US ruling
00:28:25establishment lies to its own people and attacks other countries to
00:28:29plunder their resources. it invades. Iraq under the
00:28:33pretext that Iraq possesses chemical weapons, killing 1
00:28:36million people in the process. It attacks Venezuela under
00:28:40the pretext of combatting drug trafficking, but then takes
00:28:44control of its oil wells. They attack Iran
00:28:48and they openly declare that they want to overthrow the Iranian
00:28:52government. Why? What does that have to do with them? They
00:28:55attack our country and say they want to partition Iran.
00:28:59They say
00:29:00they are after Iran's oil wells.
00:29:02why,
00:29:14why is this
00:29:14really happening?
00:29:15the reason our people chant death to america, people ch death to
00:29:19america is because these crimes and the oppression that the
00:29:23americans have, and today our people will, and today our
00:29:27people will not accept this. americans need to know these
00:29:30things as well as met. the letter, which is about
00:29:3425 pages long, it has introduction, four
00:29:38chapters and 11 subchapters. We have entered into
00:29:41a dialogue with the American people, we hope that you
00:29:45and your respected colleagues will convey the voice of our
00:29:49people, as reflected in this letter to the American
00:29:52people.
00:30:32people to understand why their country has given the zionists
00:30:36bomb.
