Iran's regime signalled a willingness for "mass sacrifice" as tensions flare during high-stakes talks with Donald Trump. President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed Tehran's resolve to hold its ground against the US and Israel. Analysts say Pezeshkian appeared to deliberately invoke one of the Islamic Republic's most deeply rooted ideological symbols. "This is one of the Islamic Republic's foundational mythological moments — civilian resistance, mass sacrifice, repelling an 'aggressor army.' Roughly what the Great Patriotic War is to Russia. The rhetorical move is the extension," Director of the Antisemitism Research Initiative Program on Extremism at George Washington University Dr Omar Mohammed told Fox News Digital. The rhetoric comes as Trump pushes for a tougher nuclear deal while warning Iran against escalating aggression.
