Tensions in the Middle East are escalating fast, and the stakes have rarely been higher. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a direct and forceful warning to the United States and Israel against any ground incursion into Iranian territory, signaling that such a move would trigger overwhelming resistance. In a strongly worded message, the IRGC urged American citizens not to “send their children to war,” accusing political leadership of pushing narratives that could lead to devastating consequences. The warning comes as Washington weighs expanding its military presence in the region, with reports suggesting that elements of the 82nd Airborne Division could be deployed amid the growing crisis.
