"History is littered with the corpses of empires that mistook military might for civilizational superiority. Iran is not a 'nation-state' in the modern sense; it is a 'civilization-state' that has outlived every empire that tried to bury it. You cannot 'reset' a culture that is woven into the very fabric of human cognition. To destroy Iran is to lobotomize the collective memory of our species. Power is fleeting, but a 3,000-year-old story is invincible."
