IRGC frames US war
Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps spokesman, posted on X that the United States is waging war with Iran or with the American people. Mohebbi asked, “Staggering costs for deploying a new group to the battlefield, coinciding with the surge in prices in America and a new drawdown from oil reserves, so US war is with Iran or with the American people?”
Mohebbi also said that Trump must learn lessons from war with Iran and accept Tehran's terms and conditions, after Trump achieved none of his goals in war with Iran. Mohebbi linked the IRGC’s critique to economic pressures, arguing that the debate about the economic repercussions of continuing the war on America and its citizens has resumed to be the focus of attention.
Question repeats across outlets
Colonel Hussein Mahbabi, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman, asked on X whether the war is “with Iran or with the American people?”
Mahbabi’s post connected “High costs to send a new group to the battlefield” with “rising prices in America” and “a new pull from the oil reserves.”
The Mehr News Agency account said that Mohebbi issued a stark warning to US President Trump on Oct. 03, urging Trump to accept Iran’s terms and conditions.
The IRGC message also appeared in another account as a question about the welfare of American citizens after the United States attacked the Iranian nation, with the post asking, “Is the war with Iran, or is its target the American people?”
Negotiations and demands
Kazem Gharibabadi, the Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister, said American viewpoints on Iran’s “seven-demand” plan are under study.
Gharibabadi told reporters that the proposal put forward by Mr. Araghchi in New York, known as Iran’s seven demands, had been conveyed to the American side through intermediaries.
Gharibabadi said the United States presented its viewpoints on the plan and that Iran’s final position would be announced through appropriate channels once it is formulated.
The Mehr News Agency account placed the IRGC’s question about whether the war is with Iran or with the American people alongside Iran’s seven demands and the New York proposal, tying the dispute to both economic messaging and negotiation terms.
