TL;DR

Member of the Iranian parliament's Internal Affairs Committee Nakh'ei Rad claimed that the United States lacks the capability to enter a full-scale war against Iran and would be forced to retreat. He warned that if Israel 'acts foolishly' again, Iran's response would be much stronger than before, and that enemies would face a 'historic defeat' in the event of war.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian parliament member Nakh'ei Rad, a member of the Internal Affairs Committee, claimed Sunday evening that the United States cannot sustain a full-scale war against Iran and would be forced to retreat. He added that if Israel 'acts foolishly' again, Iran's response would be significantly stronger than the previous one, and warned of a 'historic defeat' for enemies in the event of war. The statement, reported by a single source, is currently unverified by independent sources. It adds to a series of public threats by Iranian officials in recent weeks, though no direct link to current military activities is confirmed.
