Abstract :
The recent conflicts in the Middle East, which have their roots in the developments of the past century, entered a new phase from October 7, 2023, with the unique and heroic operations of the Palestinian movement "Hamas". The strange reaction of the Zionist regime to this historic operation on the one hand, and the hasty, confused response, along with the declaration of unattainable goals, caused this regime to gradually fall into a severe security crisis, so that the most important security and military principle of this regime, That is, the principle of deterrence collapsed. In order to revive this principle, Israel committed every crime to find a way out of this predicament, and since the Western governments, especially
America and England have played a decisive role in the creation and continuation of the life of this fake regime, a great effort was made by Israel to involve the great powers in this conflict. Among these efforts, it has been to confront the United States of America with Iran. Based on the principle of deterrence and support for the resistance front, the Islamic Republic has so far conducted two military operations under the name of True Promise 1 and 2, which have shocked not only Israel and America, but also international observers and analysts. In fact, these operations have been carried out in Israel relying on the United States and NATO, in order to show Iran's capability and authority to the world and put the resistance front as an emerging power in the Middle East in the forefront of the eyes of the aggressors and world powers. This article aims to discuss and examine the dimensions of these operations, which today are linked to the field of diplomacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
