The Economic Implosion: Iranian Government Braces for Strike as Inflation Hits Record 60%

Date:

The Iranian economy has entered a terminal phase, with official data confirming that annual point-to-point inflation has hit 60%. For families across the nation, the cost of food and beverages has skyrocketed, making basic survival an everyday struggle. The Iranian government is bracing for a strike that will capitalize on this economic misery, potentially using the financial collapse to trigger a final, decisive uprising.
The record-breaking inflation follows the removal of currency subsidies, a move that backfired and sent prices into a tailspin. This fiscal disaster has triggered a collapse in investor confidence, as seen in the Tehran Stock Exchange, which recently suffered its largest daily fall in history. The Iranian government is bracing for an attack that would target its remaining oil revenue and financial networks, effectively decapitating its ability to pay the security forces.
US planners believe that the economic desperation of 90 million Iranians is their most potent weapon. By positioning the USS Abraham Lincoln strike group within reach of the Iranian coast, Washington is forcing the regime to spend its dwindling resources on military readiness rather than relief. The Iranian government is bracing for a strike that is intended to push the “stomach revolution” past the point of no return.
Regional powers, particularly the UAE, are wary of the fallout from such an economic collapse. While the UAE has refused to let its territory be used for an attack, the presence of the US fleet in international waters ensures that Washington can still project power. The Iranian government is bracing for a strike that will bypass regional diplomacy and focus on the internal “hunger protests” that have already paralyzed major cities.
The clerical leadership continues to blame foreign “enemies” for the economic crisis, but the record 60% inflation is a domestic failure they cannot hide. As the business sector warns that it cannot survive a prolonged internet outage, the government is caught in a pincer movement. The Iranian government is bracing for a strike that will target the regime’s purse strings, ensuring that even if the leadership survives the missiles, it cannot survive the inevitable financial ruin.
