00:21What if a modern war isn't fought just by soldiers, but by millions of civilians?
00:28Because right now, Iran is sending a message to the United States and the world.
00:35If you invade, you don't face an army, you face an entire nation.
00:41And that changes everything.
00:44In the last few days, as tensions between the US, Israel and Iran continued to escalate,
00:51a striking claim emerged from Tehran.
00:54Iran's parliament speaker, Mohamed Bager Galibaf, said around 7 million Iranians have volunteered,
01:03ready to take up arms.
01:05Not professional soldiers, not full-time fighters, ordinary people.
01:12His message was blunt, almost cinematic.
01:15When it's time to defend our homeland, every one of us becomes a soldier.
01:20And then a warning.
01:22You come for our home, you're going to meet the whole family.
01:25This isn't just rhetoric.
01:29It's part of a very specific, very calculated military doctrine.
01:33To understand this, you need to understand something called the besiege.
01:38The besiege is a massive volunteer force tied to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.
01:44It already includes hundreds of thousands of trained members.
01:49And now, Iran claims, recruitment is surging.
01:53Over a million new volunteers in just recent weeks.
01:57This is what experts call a people's war strategy.
02:01Not about winning quickly.
02:03Not about defeating the US in a direct fight.
02:06But about making war so costly, so prolonged, that victory becomes impossible.
02:14Because here's the reality.
02:16The United States has overwhelming military power.
02:20Air dominance, naval supremacy, advanced technology.
02:24In a conventional war, Iran cannot win.
02:28But Iran isn't trying to fight that war.
02:32Instead, it's preparing for something else entirely.
02:35Past these initial threats, guerrilla warfare, urban resistance, hit-and-run attacks, drone
02:44swarms, missile saturation, and a war of attrition.
