00:02:14of
00:02:18Welcome back and now to the news review section we delp defer
00:02:22into one
00:02:23of the day's top stories so stay with
00:02:25us. A senior Iranian
00:02:29commander or Commander says the aggression against Ivan has shattered the
00:02:32image
00:02:33of the United States power, proving that America's military
00:02:36superiority is no longer a certain advantage. The Iranian
00:02:40army's deputy chief for executive affairs said during the
00:02:44of aggression US military power failed to overcome
00:02:48the national will
00:02:49of the Iranians who have a civilization spanning thousands
00:02:53of years. Brigadier general Ariras Sheikh added that
00:02:57during the US war of aggression 17. american bases were
00:03:01damaged, 65% of his patriot interceptor
00:03:04of missiles were used, and the Pentagon surfered more than 47
00:03:08billion dollars in direct losses. The commander added that
00:03:12the greatest military
00:03:13of setback for
00:03:14of the US goes far beyond casualties and material losses and
00:03:17lies in the collapse
00:03:19of the image of power is spent years and vast
00:03:22resources
00:03:23of building. of General Sheikh noted that the US launched this aggression against
00:03:27Iran to restore a superpower. image and show the world that it
00:03:31could impose his will through military force, however the
00:03:35of battlefield exposed the limits of his power proving that military
00:03:38superiority does not guarantee political or
00:03:42strategic
00:03:43success.
00:03:48now to talk more on this, we have miss Laila Hatum with us, editor and chief
00:03:52of men are uncensored joining us from Beirout
00:03:55of and also Dr. Wilm
00:03:56of Leon, political scientists joining us from
00:03:59of Washington DC. see Miss Hatum and uh Dr. Wilmer, thank you for being
00:04:03with us, Miss Hatum, let's begin with you and your assessment
00:04:06of the US is really wars of aggression on Iran and how
00:04:09of the two sides are now perceived, and Miss Hatum, I
00:04:13got to add that, it wasn't just the US, it was Israel, the
00:04:17Arab allies and Europe as well, they were all in on
00:04:21it, well first of all um, I don't
00:04:25a know if I should say good evening to you or good morning because it's after midnight over here, but
00:04:29I do hope uh
00:04:30of I do
00:04:34hope all is well on your side because we just heard that there might
00:04:37of be a American attacks against one part of
00:04:40of Iran uh tonight that happened few moments earlier we need to double
00:04:44check on those that news but having said that the
00:04:48of Americans so far have lost so much across the past two
00:04:52years at least or the year in the half in terms
00:04:55of their what you call reputation as a
00:04:58superpower. in terms
00:05:00of their expenses, in terms of what you call the superiority
00:05:04of their arms as well, so when the Americans attacked Iran, they
00:05:08expected that Iran was going to be weak, after
00:05:10of decades of what you call economic... sanctions and dragging Iran into war
00:05:14etc. they were surprised that the Iranians were ready, that means
00:05:18the Americans failed in their intel on the readiness of Iran and
00:05:22its power. two, the Iranians were able to swiftly
00:05:26retaliate to American assets and the region and that's military assets. they didn't
00:05:30target civilian assets any point except when the Americans took civilian
00:05:34assets as military bases and we're talking about the
00:05:37hotel in Bahrain and that means Iran was superior in terms the Intel
00:05:41warfare. the region, the third thing is that the effectiveness
00:05:45the American bombs, yes, of course, you can use the largest bombs, you can use your
00:05:49air force when you're your enemy doesn't have that one, or basically your opponent doesn't have
00:05:53that one, but at the same time when the Americans continue to
00:05:56lose their superior multi million
00:06:00dollar worth drones, the MQ9s, the MQ1,
00:06:03etc., and their war planes started steering away from
00:06:07the skies of Iran at one point in time because they were threatened by the Iranian air
00:06:11defenses, that means... "the American war toys failed at one point
00:06:15in time to achieve their goals and eventually the face
00:06:19the US and its reputation as the world police and the strongest
00:06:22power fell apart, that all combined
00:06:26has caused much strain on the American military
00:06:29expenditure and budget and eventually that led
00:06:33to the Pentagon ramping up on basically its losses, of course we
00:06:37know that the Pentagon does money laundering by claiming that it
00:06:41gives aid to its allies and basically they over charge for that
00:06:45aid in in terms the prices the the war toys
00:06:49they sent to the Israelis and to the arab allies. the pentagon couldn't
00:06:53cover those losses, they couldn't cover for their human capital losses when they
00:06:57lost a lot of soldiers, we had to hear the numbers from the Iranian side, not from the
00:07:00Israeli side, not the American side, and eventually the American public as
00:07:04well has lost its support to its administration and we're
00:07:08going to see it soon as of tomorrow, november 3rd with the term
00:07:12elections
00:07:12we do expect that all of that has will
00:07:16will has created a dent in the reputation the current US
00:07:20administration and they might lose on the ground several seats if not basically the
00:07:24elections as a whole. that's right, that's right, so many interesting points there,
00:07:28miss Hatum,
00:07:30dr. dr. leon, what has caused this, thank you for the
00:07:34way, first of all, sorry for that, mr. leon, dr. leon,
00:07:38what has caused the us to get to this stage and also the european countries as
00:07:42well? because they're a fast decline and now it seems
00:07:45that uh Iran finally shattered that facade of
00:07:49being the US is facada being the big
00:07:53bad bully and do you
00:07:54see other countries uh following suit changing the posture towards the
00:07:58US in the
00:07:59future
00:08:06hegemony has been significantly damaged
00:08:10uh America's ace symmetric vulnerability
00:08:14has been exposed, the smaller and less conventionally
00:08:18resourced actors such as Iran
00:08:22and Yemen have
00:08:24been able to inflict severe damage
00:08:27to uh US spaces and installations and to
00:08:31those of number of US allies as well such as the
00:08:34Saudis, the U.S. empire, I
00:08:38believe, has has fallen victim to the same
00:08:41reality. that every empire before
00:08:45it has fallen victim to:
00:08:47arrogance, extensive uh military expansion
00:08:51and overreach and as well as
00:08:54technological advancements that it has failed
00:08:58to incorporate into its arsenal and has
00:09:01underappreciated as its adversaries have
00:09:05incorporated things such as hypersonic
00:09:09missile technology uh into in to the
00:09:12Iranian uh missile arsenal uh we can look
00:09:16at uh Iran's ability to decimate the
00:09:19Bahran uh base where the US fifth fleet is
00:09:23stationed uh the ability of Iran to control the Strait of
00:09:26Formus and Ansar Alah to control the Red
00:09:30Sea and thereby uh demonstrating to its
00:09:34allies the ability to impact and
00:09:38almost control the global supply chain
00:09:41as well as global markets, I think
00:09:45that uh, the United States dramatically
00:09:48underestimated Iran's
00:09:50resilience, and they have also
00:09:54misinterpreted Iran's
00:09:58restrained action as
00:10:01weakness, and now Iran is
00:10:03demonstrating uh
00:10:05what a true uh
00:10:08resistance movement is really all about,
00:10:12and the fact that the the goals and the objectives
00:10:16and the strategies of a resistance
00:10:19movement are very different than those the
00:10:23hejam. That's right. Dr. Lee
00:10:25will get back to the military part of it as well. Miss Hatum, do
00:10:29you see the US foothold in the future out the west Asia
00:10:33region? um, like
00:10:36a way, do you think that their arab allies, the US's arab allies,
00:10:40as he himself, Donald Trump said, milking cows have now
00:10:43realized uh, that the US doesn't bring much security for
00:10:47them uh, but will sell sell them out all them
00:10:50because of Israel. Well, I mean,
00:10:54unfortunately. I highly doubt that they're going to change their path, it's just like a drug
00:10:58addict, they know that the person who's supplying them with drugs is hurting them, but they need
00:11:02those drugs and they need their fix and they will continue to be followers of that drug
00:11:06dealer, so it's the same thing over here, the the
00:11:10fear of losing the American illusion
00:11:12of support any point, the continued reliance on
00:11:16American, what you call war toys and
00:11:19technology, and the fact that the Americans control every aspect of technology they
00:11:23sent to the Arab world means that... Americans will continue to have hold or a
00:11:27grip on the Arab nations that basically support it, and those arab nations
00:11:31are not going to back off anytime soon, and I'm saying unfortunately because
00:11:34this is the reality,
00:11:35I mean we hope
00:11:37that they wake up and smell the roses, but even when they
00:11:40do that, it's going to take a long time before they back off
00:11:44from this toxic relationship they have with the Americans. Um, having said
00:11:48that, when it comes to the Americans, American presence in this region, I
00:11:52highly doubt that we're going to see an American withdrawal and... time soon, not because
00:11:56the pride or the false ego that the Americans
00:12:00have, because if they do withdraw from here, they that means they're going to be hit in
00:12:04every other region as well, because the whole world will know that they can beat this
00:12:07big empire, it's the beginning the end their empire, but it's it's going to take
00:12:11some time, so the way I look it after spending trillions of dollars on wars
00:12:15in this region and building these military bases, it's going time to get
00:12:19rid them, so it's just
00:12:20like basically again putting addict in asylum
00:12:24and... cutting off the daily fix, it's going to
00:12:28be hard, but it's it's going to take time, but it's eventually might
00:12:31happen, but I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon, the Americans
00:12:35also have spent trillions of dollars to actually change the face the middle
00:12:39east and their end game
00:12:41is not finished yet, and in that sense they will continue to create
00:12:45disruption and create
00:12:48internal upheaval in the countries that they couldn't change the
00:12:52the leadership within, that includes Iran and I do hope the... understand the
00:12:55situation when it comes to like negotiating with the Americans, the Americans will
00:12:59tell
00:13:00you we're negotiating with you, we want to reach peace, but they will backstabut just like they did in
00:13:04June 20 last year, just like they did earlier this year and just like
00:13:07they're doing now, so at the end the day I do believe that the Americans if they
00:13:11cannot change something by war, what they're going to do is basically put
00:13:15further sanctions on Iran, use their allies to do that, and
00:13:18eventually they're going to start sending their operatives on
00:13:22the ground inside Iran to create peval over there, because they do believe that they can
00:13:26actually make this change after spending all these trillions. let's hope that the Iranians
00:13:29actually continue to be vigilant with all their borders and it's it's
00:13:33a hard task, but I know that the Iranian people are supporting their their
00:13:37leadership and they are aware the situation on the ground, they can actually report
00:13:41on people who are creating sedition internally.
00:13:44Iran is is surrounded by nearly 15 to 14 states and
00:13:48borders, that means it's it's easier for the Americans to send infiltrator
00:13:52somewhere, but it's harder for them to change the mindset. the people on the
00:13:56ground on the shorter to medium term, so hopefully the Iranians continue to be well
00:14:00aware the situation, when i say Iranians i'm talking about the population and that they continue to
00:14:04support their leadership against the Americans, that's right, as you said it's a
00:14:07multi-faceted war. doctor Leon, what are we
00:14:11expecting this time around, is the war inevitable, many are saying yes
00:14:15definitely, and what could the US do that he hasn't done before,
00:14:19especially now with the depleted munitions, uh,
00:14:22patriot missiles, much the base... is destroyed in the region
00:14:26as well as the cost of it for the US and also for the
00:14:30entire world, the world is basically paying the price for uh Netanyahu and
00:14:34Trump's dreams. Well, trying to
00:14:38predict what the Trump administration is going to do is incredibly
00:14:42difficult because he's such a transactional
00:14:45individual and he spends so much time
00:14:49bluffing and posturing and engaged in gingoistic
00:14:53rhetoric uh and... he and as they say uh
00:14:57Trump always chickens out the
00:14:59the the taco theory, so that's one side the
00:15:03equation. Unfortunately, the other side the
00:15:06equation is that he is, he is
00:15:08narcissistic bully who may very well
00:15:12want to take the world into World War II, simply
00:15:16because he can't figure out how to put a stop to
00:15:20an illegal, immoral war that he
00:15:23started,
00:15:24so this... is is very very difficult uh to
00:15:28predict, and we also then have to, if Donald
00:15:31Trump and his allies, such as Netanyahu and
00:15:35Israel, do decide to... the conflict,
00:15:39then the question becomes,
00:15:40what is China going
00:15:41to do, what is Yemen going to do, what is Russia going
00:15:45to do, all these things
00:15:47contriburation
00:15:51that makes this thing just fire that burns out
00:15:55of control, and one
00:15:59would think that at some point the
00:16:03Europeans would get to point and understand that they
00:16:06themselves. have to make some very serious, important
00:16:10decisions, do they want to contribute to World War
00:16:14II and possibly the end the world as we know
00:16:18it, or are they eventually going to find some
00:16:21backbone and stand up to the United
00:16:24States as the declining hegemon and say,
00:16:28enough is enough, we're paying enough for gas, we're paying
00:16:32too much for wheat, we are putting too much into our
00:16:35budgets uh for defense. at the expense of
00:16:39social programs our people are an uproar as they are
00:16:43in France, as they are in Germany, as they are in other countries in
00:16:46Europe, and enough is enough. I wish I could
00:16:50predict this, unfortunately I can't. That's
00:16:54right, by the looks of here, we could very well see another world war,
00:16:58so there you have a miss Laila Hatum, editor and chief of men
00:17:02on sensor from Beirot, Lebanon, and also Dr.
00:17:05Wilm Leon, political. Scientist from Washington DC,
00:17:09US, Miss Hatum, and Dr. Leon, thank you for your
00:17:13time, uh, it was an honor talking to both of
00:17:15you, and also the viewers, stay with us, more headlines
00:17:19coming
00:17:20up,
00:17:32welcome back, the spokesman the Yemeni Armed forces says Yemen has carried out
00:17:36retality attacks on... Saudi Arabias Jisan and Dammam
00:17:40over the past two days. Brigadier general Yahya Sari said two
00:17:44drone strikes targeted Dammam airport disrupting air traffic
00:17:48and another hit early warning radar site in Jizan.
00:17:51He also said a military transport aircraft at Jizan airport was
00:17:55targeted. The spokesman added that Saudi fighter jets conducted
00:17:59109 attacks on Yameny provinces over the past
00:18:03day. The strikes have left several civilians dead or
00:18:06wounded.
00:18:11Over a century has passed since the British government represented by his
00:18:14then Prime Minister Balfot issued
00:18:18inhumane declaration to the Zionist movement. This declaration
00:18:21promised them a state on Palestinian land. In essence, it was an
00:18:25endorsement for the Israeli gangs to occupy Palestine. Here's
00:18:29more in this report.
00:18:33Over 109 years have passed painfully since that is
00:18:36speakable. b for declaration issued by the British government to the
00:18:40Zionist on November the 2nd, 1917, promising them
00:18:44a stay on Palestinian land, a promise given by those who had no
00:18:48right to give it to those who didn't deserve
00:18:50it. from a historical
00:18:53perspective, the Palestinian people had been living on these lands for
00:18:57centuries before even the British mandate. Palestine was part
00:19:01the Ottoman Empire, but the British government decided to reward the
00:19:05Zionists for their role in World War II, by granting them Palestine to
00:19:09establish new entity. This declaration unequivocally
00:19:13authorized the Zionists to commit massacres and forcibly displace
00:19:17the indigenous
00:19:18population. That
00:19:21declaration was issued on the false and unjust premise that
00:19:25Palestine is a land devoid of people and should be given to people
00:19:28without land. This premise laid the foundation for one the
00:19:32most brutal occupations the humanity has ever witnessd as
00:19:36perceived by the Z
00:20:07direct result the balf declaration, which allowed the Israeli
00:20:11occupation to expel us
00:20:12from our
00:20:12lands.
00:20:17for many, the Israeli genocidal war against Gaza
00:20:20is viewed as
00:20:21the culmination of western complicity. this complicity primarily
00:20:24enabled the establishment the Israeli regime on palestinian land and
00:20:28allowed Israeli gangs to commit atrocities against
00:20:31Palestinians.
00:20:36we mark the balf declaration. this year emits the ongoing
00:20:39genocidal war in Gaza, which is one of its significant
00:20:42consequences. Even after over a century since the
00:20:46declaration, the glaring double standards persist. I
00:20:50firmly believe that as long as western countries continue to show more
00:20:53complicity, the Israeli crimes will
00:20:55persist. more than a century
00:20:59after that declaration, Palestinians across all Palestinian
00:21:03titories continue to suffer its consequences. They face
00:21:07increased violence, displacement and injustice. With over
00:21:117 million Palestinians still living as refuges is scattered
00:21:15worldwide. The consequences the
00:21:18uphorrent ball for declar. ation continue to profoundly affect the
00:21:22Palestinian people who remain subjected to ongoing injustice
00:21:26and suffering, they continue to b the devastating
00:21:30human coast of western complicity and the international
00:21:33communitys persistent failure to take meaningful action to end
00:21:37their suffering and uphold their fundamental
00:21:40rights, but the central area of gaza
00:21:44step, they have those were the top
00:21:48stories on press tv, thank you. Being with us, take care and as
00:21:51usual, stay
00:21:52safe.
00:22:14When you are born on Iranian soil, something is born with you,
00:22:18the belief that a homeland is not. really a place to live, but
00:22:21sometimes a place you must be willing to die for. The roots of this
00:22:25belief can be found even in the legends of Iran, and perhaps no
00:22:29legend expresses it more powerfully than the story of Arash.
00:22:33After the war between Iran and Turan, it is decided that Iran's
00:22:37new frontier will be determined by the flight of a single arrow.
00:22:41Arash stands a top mount damavant. He puts all his
00:22:44strength, all his life into the arrow and releases it.
00:22:48Arash dies, but the arrow. flies on, where did it
00:22:51land? To find the answer, we must leave legend behind and
00:22:55enter history. 330 BC, Alexander
00:22:59had crushed nearly every major power in his path and was advancing toward
00:23:03Presepolis. At the Persian gate, Ario Barzanis stood
00:23:07with around 700 warriors against an army of more than
00:23:1010,000. They knew that if they resisted, they would die, but
00:23:14they chose an honorable death over life under domination. They
00:23:18stopped Alexander's first. assault and forced him to retreat, and
00:23:22for the generations that followed, they left behind a legacy.
00:23:25Resistance means knowing that you may lose your life, yet refusing to
00:23:29let an enemy cross your land without paying a price. Two
00:23:33centuries later, this time Rome came from the west. In
00:23:3653 BC, Crasus invaded Parthian territory with
00:23:40vast army. Facing him stood young commander,
00:23:44Sirena, with his mounted archers and a thousand camels carrying
00:23:48an endless supply of arrows. Arena filled the skies with a storm
00:23:52of arrows. The Roman army suffered one the most devastating
00:23:55defeats in its history, but for Iranians, land is not the
00:23:59only frontier. The sea is a frontier too. At the beginning
00:24:03the 16th century, the Portuguese seized Hormus, a
00:24:07small island at the entrance to the Persian Gulf, whose control meant
00:24:11command over one the most important trade roots between east and
00:24:14west. They built fortresses, they brought cannons, and they
00:24:18remained for more than a century. In 1622,
00:24:22Iranian forces under the command of Imam Koli khan reached
00:24:25Hormusz. After a hard fought siege, Portuguese power in
00:24:29Hormus was broken and the island was
00:24:32retaken, but the Persian Gulf never
00:24:35disappeared from the ambitions of colonial powers. In
00:24:391915, British forces occupied Bucher
00:24:42against an army backed by warships, artillery, and the power of
00:24:46one the world's greatest empires, the people of southern Iran. stood
00:24:50with simple rifles. Their resistance was led by a man named
00:24:54Rais Ali Delvari. During the months of occupation, he
00:24:58organized the resistance
00:24:59the people of Tangistan. For Rais Ali, the question was
00:25:03never how many soldiers stood on either side. The principle was
00:25:07simple: Iranian soil is not negotiable, even if
00:25:10defending it costs your life. Rais Ali was eventually
00:25:14martered in that struggle. September 3rd, the anniversary of his
00:25:18marterdom is commemorated. in Iran as the national day of
00:25:21struggle against British colonialism, but the resistance did not
00:25:25end with his death. Years later, British forces finally left
00:25:29Bucher, yet the ambitions of foreign powers toward Iran did
00:25:33not end there, because Iran
00:25:37also had oil. For decades, much of Iran's oil industry
00:25:41remained under the influence of a British company, until
00:25:441951, Mohammed Mosadeg stood against threats,
00:25:48political pressure and economic. pressure and declared, Iran's
00:25:52oil must belong to Iran. The oil industry was
00:25:55nationalized. Two years later, a coup backed directly by the
00:25:59United States and Britain over threw his government. Mosadeg was
00:26:03removed from power and spent the remaining years of his life in
00:26:06imprisonment and house arrest, but one demand could no longer be
00:26:10erased. Iran's wealth must remain in Iranian
00:26:13hands, land, water,
00:26:17oil. But now, the issue is no longer only land,
00:26:21water, or oil. It is something greater than all them,
00:26:24independence. The question of who has the right to decide
00:26:28Iran's future. In June, 2025, the United States
00:26:32directed. attacked Iran's nuclear facilities, and since
00:26:35February 2026, Iran has been engaged in direct
00:26:39military confrontation with the United States and Israel. For
00:26:43months, military and economic pressure has continued, but
00:26:46Iran has never been willing to trade its independence for temporary
00:26:50peace. Bows, arrows and horses have given way to
00:26:53launchers, missiles, tanks,
00:26:57drones and fighter jets, but
00:27:01the blood of Arash still runs through Iranian veins
00:27:05and now let us return to the same question: where did
00:27:08arash's arrow land? The arrow flew more than a,
00:27:12kilometers all the way to the banks the Axis river. Arash
00:27:16lost his life, but he did not allow the enemy to
00:27:20decide Iran's fate, and that
00:27:23legacy passed from one generation to the next.
00:27:27An Iranian may give his life for his homeland and independence, but he
00:27:31will never. their fate to foreign
00:27:34power.
00:28:30Good evening, even
00:28:31is prepared. for every possible scenario, whether that means reaching
00:28:35a diplomatic agreement with Washington or confronting
00:28:39another round of military aggression. Terron has reiterated
00:28:43that its seven stage proposal remains on the table with foreign minister
00:28:47Dr. Abbas Arakshi, saying its implementation could be
00:28:50accelerated from seven days to just two, the foreign
00:28:54ministry says the ball is now in Washington's court,
00:28:58while China is stepping up diplomatic engagement with Iran and
00:29:01Oman, an effort to revive negotiations and restore
00:29:05regional stability. At the same time, Supreme National
00:29:09Security Council's secretary Mohsen Rii has confirmed that
00:29:13Iran is debating whether to maintain its existing nuclear doctrine
00:29:17if an other war breaks out, and following the
00:29:21leaders directive on Saturday, Iran's armed forces have
00:29:24asserted that any renewed aggression would be met with a
00:29:28far reaching response. So is diplomacy approaching a break?
00:29:32through or are we witnessing preparations for another
00:29:35confrontation? that's our focus tonight with our
00:29:38guests.
00:29:43we have joining us Alessandra Bruno, author and geopolitical analyst
00:29:47joining us from the city of
00:29:48Toronto. and also
00:29:52joining into this conversation will be Ali Hamiah, military and
00:29:56strategic affairs analys, joining us from the southern Lebanon
00:29:59areas. gentlemen, thank you both. for joining me in
00:30:03this hour, I'm going to begin with our guest in Toronto, Mr.
00:30:06Bruno,
00:30:07uh, let me begin with the central issue, Tehran says right now, the
00:30:11ball is right now in the US court, and that its seven
00:30:15state proposal could be implemented in just two days if the
00:30:19US meets its conditions. um, would you say that
00:30:23Tehran right now is offering Washington
00:30:26Washington clear and a relatively short way to
00:30:30come back to diplomacy and prevents another
00:30:33war? well, i think tehran has offered
00:30:36washington this diplomatic solution for a long
00:30:40time from the very beginning, in fact
00:30:44before right up to february
00:30:4627th, 2026, and
00:30:50we've had on that occasion and on the previous
00:30:53occasion in june
00:30:572025, both times it was Washington
00:31:00that broke the...
