Well said.
The sanctions and the economic terrorism that US regime has been carrying out against Iranians is damaging and disruptive but at the same time it has been a blessing and greatly beneficial too. A lot of the advancements in Iran is because of those sanctions. After the revolution when Iranians overthrew the US backed dictatorship on 1979, Iran has made great advances in all sciences and technologies.
For example today Iran's medical sector is leading, like the Iranian surgical robots like the remote controlled Sina (named after the Persian physician and father of modern medicine Ibn Sina) is being exported; while 50 years ago Iran didn't even have decent doctors and had to import foreign doctors!
One of the main reasons for US regime's animosity toward Iran is these advancements. They don't want Iran to become like a "role model" for other nations as well...

I think you are spot on here, they never saw this coming that Iran would be doing just fine without them and even better. Something like this happens recently in Africa, Burkina Faso to be precise, Ibrahim traoré who is their current military head of state has really improved their country just for a short period of time the moment he stop depending on external power in other to keep the country's economy afloat, right now their is so many things they now produce themselves, things they were exporting before, now they are they one's doing most of the export, that is why the french president is now taking him as an enemy, painting him bad and discrediting all he does, but the good thing their is that, the citizens of Burkina Faso are no longer blind by the fake love out there, they have finally realized that these guys are only interested in their resources not in the interest of Burkina Faso.So the us regime is just pained that Iran has discovered the best of them they never thought existed, and they are feeling threatened by the new advancement technologically in Iran.
Iran's research budget is 1 percent of GDP, even under embargo, economic blockade for nearly 40 years, prohibition on technology spending, and exclusion from international information and cooperation. Yet, Iran focuses on producing thousands of scientists, engineers, and technocrats, which undoubtedly alarms and concerns the West. This has proven to be the result of sophisticated military equipment (combat drones, hypersonic ballistic missiles, and domestically produced fighter jets), as well as a domestically produced satellite that has been successfully launched.
The defense and military industry in Iran thrives and thrives on the demands of survival. Most of its productive age population is university graduates in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields. Iran has proven that sanctions can breed creativity, and limitations can breed greatness. Many countries should learn from Iran that even the greatest pressure can produce resilience as long as we use our brains.
Another thing that can be learned from Iran in the late 1970s, Iran changed from a monarchy to a theocracy (a religious system is the basis of the state and its leaders are the executors of God's commands). The new regime (Ayatollah) built a new paramilitary force, The Army of Guardian of the Islamic Revolution or what the West calls the IRGC - Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps. The IRGC under Ayatollah Khomeini expanded its functions, authority, and control (Deep State). The Iranian Revolutionary Guard is the strongest military force in West Asia. Although some countries consider them terrorists, they are soldiers who protect the ruling regime (not soldiers who protect Iran). Therefore, the IRGC is a legitimate entity in Iran, their position is even stronger when during the long war with Iraq, the IRGC became the vanguard, not the Iranian National Army. The IRGC is more like a militant organizational structure. One of the IRGC divisions is the Quds Division, where this division controls unconventional warfare and intelligence operations. This division supports organizations in many countries to fight the hegemony of the US and Israel (the nickname is non-state actor). The Quds Force supports Hezbollah, Yemen's Houthi rebels, and Hamas. The IRGC also manages the majority of Iran's economy through its state-owned enterprises. Therefore, it could be said that the IRGC is an armed conglomerate business corporation.
Iran's resilience isn't due to its immunity from sanctions, but rather to a combination of a high-cost oil sales strategy (discounts + shadow fleet) that continues to generate foreign exchange; a state-centric model (IRGC/bonyad/state-owned enterprises) that fills the investment gap; downstreaming of heavy industry and import substitution; and a geopolitical pivot to the East that opens up trade channels and political support. The result: GDP continues to grow moderately and basic industry thrives.
Iran one of the oldest civilised nations? They can always thrive, they don't need external validations and support for that.
We're blessed to have Traore, it is precisely two solid years and he has transformed Burkina Faso to a mini heaven. All western puppets and caretakers in Africa should draw inspiration from him, likewise cutting ties with the west and watch your country blooom.
The area of mining their own gold and building a great tomato industry has helped them internally, more than that, they've also stopped the usage of all that has to do with the french gradually such as making their Burkinabe language a priority for all.
Few months back they tried all they could to raise propaganda and also multiple assassination attempts but he had the backing of his men and also the people who want to see him also help bring about the "United States Of Africa".
I will say this as my conclusion, the history of the west and the states say bad about themselves, only those who are lazy to do their findings support them blindly. We don't even benefit from the so-called democracy Bullshit. It is all in planting their caretakers who help them project their plans and steal wealths meant for Africans. They're more a major threat to the globe than China, Russia North Korea and Iran.

I admire Thomas Sankara's land reform, which eliminated foreign rights, improved education, health care, and equal rights for women, eliminated corruption, and stopped dependence on international aid. Burkina Faso is a land of corruption. His famous quote is, "A revolutionary may die, but his mind will never die; it will live forever." I see Thomas Sankara's spirit in Ibrahim Traore, starting with his distinct thinking about Africa, positioning himself as a public servant, anti-French, and also overthrowing the previous pro-French government. The use of the Wagner Private Army in Ibrahim Traore's shadow is expected to maintain security. Ibrahim Traore represents a new wave of young African leaders who want to break colonial ties and foster local identity and sovereignty.
On the other hand, this also poses risks to pluralism and civil rights. Positive lessons for governance from Thomas Sankara and Ibrahim Traore include strong, multidimensional reforms emphasizing economic independence and state control over resources; cultural reactualization and symbolic decolonization; pro-people fiscal redistribution and participatory social development.
