Iran’s Missile Threat Grows: America Must Act Now

America faces grave threats abroad, and nowhere is the danger clearer than in the aggressive saber-rattling coming from Iran. This week, Iranian military leaders openly boasted about their missile capabilities, claiming that thousands of rockets and drones stand ready for immediate deployment. While mainstream media outlets often downplay such threats, American patriots understand that when a regime with Iran’s track record makes such statements, it would be foolish—and dangerous—to ignore them.

Major General Yahya Rahim-Safavi, a senior advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, proudly declared in state-controlled Press TV that Iran’s military has amassed thousands of missiles securely stored and ready to launch if provoked. These missiles, Rahim-Safavi bragged, are products of Iran’s own technology, immune to foreign efforts to destroy or degrade them. “We have produced several thousand missiles and drones so far, and their place is secure,” Rahim-Safavi said, underscoring the regime’s determination to maintain offensive capabilities no matter the international pressure.

Let’s be clear: this threat isn’t mere rhetoric. Iran recently demonstrated its willingness to act, unleashing missiles and drones during a 12-day clash with Israel and targeting an American airbase in Qatar. Despite Israeli strikes against key Iranian military sites, including nuclear facilities and missile infrastructure, the regime is undeterred. If these provocations continue unchecked, the supposed ceasefire will be nothing more than a brief pause in a broader conflict.

President Trump has wisely sought to counter Iran’s aggression through a combination of strength and diplomacy. He recently stated, “We have scheduled Iran talks, and they want to. They want to talk.” This straightforward approach—peace through strength—stands in stark contrast to the failed appeasement strategies of Joe Biden and his leftist allies. Under Biden, America watched helplessly as Iran ramped up its nuclear ambitions and funded terrorism throughout the Middle East. Trump’s return to the White House has made it clear to the mullahs in Tehran that America will no longer tolerate their dangerous provocations.

Iran has stocks of thousands of missiles and drones secured and ready to use despite Israeli airstrikes and it is prepared to use them against any new attacks, the army said.

Yet, despite President Trump’s efforts, the Iranian threat remains formidable. The Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and its Quds Force—responsible for spreading terror across the globe—have not even fully mobilized yet, according to Rahim-Safavi. This chilling admission confirms that Iran retains substantial military capabilities in reserve, ready to escalate if their regime feels threatened. America cannot afford complacency in the face of this menace. Iranian aggression threatens not only Israel and our Middle Eastern allies but global stability itself.

Israel, America’s stalwart ally, understands this threat all too well. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) recently declared, “We struck Iran’s nuclear program, missile infrastructure, and terror leadership, before they could act. This is defense.” Israel’s proactive stance demonstrates the necessity of confronting threats head-on rather than waiting passively for attacks to occur. America must stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel, backing their right to self-defense and sending a clear message to Iran: further aggression will be met with overwhelming force.

As conservatives who put America First, we must remain vigilant against the Iranian regime’s ambitions. Iran’s stockpile of missiles and drones isn’t merely a regional concern—it’s a global threat. President Trump is right to pursue talks, but negotiations must never come at the expense of national security. Iran must know that any aggression against America or our allies will result in devastating consequences.

It’s time for Congress and the American people to unite behind a clear-eyed foreign policy that prioritizes our security, supports our allies, and confronts Iran’s dangerous ambitions directly. Iran’s leaders may boast about their missiles and drones, but America possesses the strength, resolve, and leadership to ensure they never use them against us or our friends. Under Trump’s steady hand, Americans can rest assured that our nation’s defense remains his top priority.
