AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Major General Ali Abdollahi, the head of the General Staff of the Armed Forces and commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, in a message, described post-third-imposed-war Iran as the fourth emerging power pole of the world.
The message of Major General Pilot Ali Abdollahi is as follows:
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
November 4, "National Day of Struggle against Global Arrogance," is not a calendar occasion for the Iranian nation; it is a living document of anti-arrogance; this day in the historical memory of Iranians recalls three instructive events:
"The exile of Imam Khomeini (r.a.) in 1964, the massacre of revolutionary students in 1978, and the seizure of the American spy den in 1979; three events that, following the 1953 coup and Operation Ajax, have indebted America to the Iranian nation from that very moment. After 1953, America's hostility against Iran has been a continuous line, not scattered incidents and events; support and companionship with Saddam in the eight-year imposed war, support for the hypocrites and counter-revolutionary groups, the assassination of nuclear scientists, the economic and sanctions war, the blocking of the Iranian nation's assets, the cowardly assassination of the martyred Lieutenant General Hajj Qassem Soleimani, and operational participation with the Zionist regime in the imposed wars of 12 days and 40 days of 2025 and 2026, which led to the martyrdom of the leader of the Ummah and the great Leader of the Islamic Revolution, His Eminence Imam Sayed Ali Khamenei (may his secret be sanctified), the supreme commanders of the armed forces, the warriors and zealous defenders of the homeland, and a large number of oppressed Iranians, especially innocent children, are only part of this permanent and chain-like American enmity against this country, whose black record remains open and the world witnesses the White House's aggressions and crimes against the Islamic Revolution and homeland.
Today, the hybrid war between Iran and America, beyond being a military conflict, is shifting the geometry of global power, and powerful Iran, through controlling the Strait of Hormuz as the vital bottleneck of energy and determining the rules of access to it, has emerged as the fourth power pole; and the unipolar order has knelt before this new reality that: "Nations and regional powers can secure their security without relying on the American security umbrella."
Military power is not a goal for us; it is a tool. Iran does not want war, but our doctrine, based on realities and the requirements of the time, has moved from "defense" to "offensive initiative" and from "crisis management" to "order-building."
On this honorable scene, Iran's plan for sustainable security is based on five principles:
1. Ending the war on all fronts, especially Lebanon and Gaza; negotiating simultaneously with threats is imposition.
2. Complete removal of sanctions and the release of the Iranian nation's blocked assets.
3. Payment of compensation for the imposed wars; the Iranian nation is not a debtor, it is a creditor.
4. Recognition of Iran's sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz and replacing the "Hormuz mechanism" with America's worn-out security umbrella.
5. Guaranteeing non-aggression again and the formation of endogenous security arrangements in West Asia.
These five principles are not a peace plan from a position of weakness; they are a doctrine of order-building from a position of power and in the light of active resistance. Iran is not seeking hegemony; rather, it seeks the end of the domination that was imposed 73 years ago with the 1953 coup and today, in the shadow of the lessons of November 4, has reached the end of its path.
Our path is the path of the two great Imams (r.a.) and the martyr (may his secret be sanctified) of the Islamic Revolution, who introduced America as the "Great Satan" and turned the strategy and policy of "Neither East, Nor West" and "active resistance" of the Islamic Republic into an undeniable reality of the country, whose flag is in the capable hands of the Supreme Authority of Guardianship and Leadership and the Commander-in-Chief, His Eminence Imam Sayed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei (May God protect him), and the armed forces, with absolute obedience to His Eminence, guarantee its continuation in the military arena and the trenches of hybrid and cognitive warfare.
I, on behalf of the powerful armed forces of the country, while commemorating the Day of God, November 4, the "National Day of Struggle against Global Arrogance," and renewing allegiance with the martyrs of the Islamic Revolution and dear Iran, especially the martyred Imam (may God elevate his honorable status), in answering the recent directives and orders of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief (May God protect him) and warning the camp of the demonic enemy, emphasize:
"The armed forces and the history-making defenders of the homeland, with the help of the national support of the sent nation of Iran as one of the pillars of deterrence against domestic and foreign Iran-haters, consider intelligent combat readiness the requirement of 'maximum deterrence,' and by updating the target bank and placing the material and immaterial assets of the American-Zionist enemy within range, they will answer any level and type of threat with an immediate, effective, and geographically unrestricted response."
Far be it from us to accept humiliation
Head of the General Staff of the Armed Forces
and Commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya (p.b.u.h) Central Headquarters
Major General of the Revolutionary Guards, Pilot Ali Abdollahi
