Sharp Iranian response to White House tweet
Digital exchange of blows between Tehran and Washington
In an event that took place on May 13, 2026, digital tensions between Iran and the United States escalated. The Iranian Embassy published a combative response to an official tweet from the White House, as part of an ongoing battle of narratives on social networks.
According to a report by the Telegram channel آخرین خبر, which is identified with the positions of the Iranian establishment, the embassy mocked the capabilities of the United States and hinted at Iran's superiority. In the message that was published, it was written cynically: "If you have a full hand (strong cards), there is no need for artificial intelligence", a statement intended to demonstrate strategic self-confidence.
The message, which was also published on the اسلام آبادخبر channel, reflects the official line of Tehran, which uses social networks to project power and repel Western criticism. In this response, one can discern the rhetorical use of artificial intelligence as a tool perceived by the Iranian regime as an American attempt to cover up a lack of real power on the ground.
