Tehran is likely to settle on rocket fire last night on US bases in Iraq, which apparently did not cause casualties, as a single response at least at this point to the Sulimani liquidation • All this despite Khamenei, Rouhani and Sharif's blatant threats to the US and its allies • Commentary

Following the Iranian missile attack on US bases in Iraq, the rhetoric voiced by the leadership in Tehran suggests that the Ayatollah regime will settle on this retaliation for the assassination of Quds Force commander in the Revolutionary Guards, Qassem Suleimani, and his entourage last weekend. Iran seems to be facing the events of the last few days, and not necessarily the escalation that could drag the entire region into a military conflict.
Supreme Leader Khamenei and President Rouhani say, among the plethora of threats and warnings to America and its allies, that Iran's counter-response to Suleimani's assassination was successful and achieved its goals, and Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif emphasizes that his country "has completed its response to Suleimani's murder and does not want it." When listening to the three, it's easy to think that Tehran did contain Suleimani's assassination and is already face-to-face, when only a US response to the Iranian missile attack could provoke an even harsher reaction on the way to a murderous bloody circle who knows what its consequences and consequences will be.
However, we must not forget that the Chess-invented Persians are excellent tacticians and talented strategists who are well aware that things spoken from outside and not necessarily have to be coordinated. They can also be contrary to the true intentions and modes of operation of the security forces in the Islamic Republic, led by the Revolutionary Guards Organization operating in Iran as a military force for everything, armed and organized in a clear command hierarchy and its importance to the government even exceeds that of the Iranian military.
It is enough to listen to warnings and threats made by Revolutionary Guards officials against the US and its allies in the region - Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf authorities hosting US bases - to understand that Tehran has no intention of settling on the missile attack last night. The Revolutionary Guards intend to continue to strike the other side. The American in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world where there is an American military presence, and carry out terrorist attacks on US soil by activating dormant and active cells who have been training and preparing for years for a moment when they are asked to contribute their part to the Islamic Revolution in Iran.
