When the Iranian cleric Mustafa Karmi was asked about the way in which Israel obtained detailed information about Nasrallah, here's what he said, "This information was leaked by infidel and invisible demons, who were employed and operated by Jewish priests... The Jews were taught how to mobilize demons and [about] astrology in the days of King Solomon."
Now, besides being beyond bizarre, we need to remember that Iran has spent the last year embellishing the current situation in Israel, telling their people that Israel is nearly defeated and that's it's just a matter of time until it is destroyed.
After a year of imbibing this propaganda, the Iranians started to believe it, and that's why they are having such a hard time with the re-emergence of Israel as a force to be reckoned with. First, Israel pulled off two brilliant sophisticated assassinations, when they killed Fuad Shukr and Ismail Haniyeh. Not long after that, they executed the daring and ingenious pager explosions, followed a day alter by walkie talkie explosions, followed by intense air strikes on Lebanon, followed by deceiving Hezbollah into believing that Netanyahu was on his way to America to discuss a ceasefire, when in reality, it was most likely just a smokescreen for Nasrallah's (and Ali Karaki's) assassination.
Iran cannot bring itself to admit the truth: Israel is not 'down and out' anymore, not by a long shot. It is a formidable enemy, with an enormous army and air force and an all-knowing Mossad that can strike anyone anywhere.
And don't for one second believe their new president either, when he says that Iran will 'lay down their weapons' if other countries do the same. Either Pezeshkian is demented or he is completely out of touch or he is playing some sort of 'good cop- bad cop' kind of game.
We could be facing dark days indeed, or they could just admit the truth- they thought they were all-powerful by surrounding Israel with a 'ring of fire'- it backfired horribly and they aren't quite sure how (or if) to respond.
