Zineb Riboua appears on Fox News to discuss the Iranian regime’s strategic mistakes and the leadership failures of IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi. She argues that Iran is effectively in a state of denial, continuing to pursue a strategy of prolonged confrontation. According to Riboua, the regime believes it is buying time by dragging out the conflict, but it is failing to recognize that the United States retains significantly greater military capabilities and escalation options.
