Axis of Resistance

Axis of Resistance Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar attacked Israel in October 2023 with the hope of provoking a chain reaction from the Axis of Resistance that would lead to Israel’s fall, but instead, the axis of resistance was weakened and Assad fell. This was not a goal that Israel sought to achieve, but it was undoubtedly a byproduct of its actions. On 08 December 2024 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called “the Assad regime a central link in the Iranian axis of evil,” and said its downfall was a “direct result of our blows to Iran and Hezbollah, the Assad regime’s main supporters,” which “created a chain reaction throughout the Middle East.”

The collapse of the Assad regime 08 December 2024 marked a significant setback for Iran’s “Axis of Resistance,” a central pillar of its security strategy. This development not only diminishes Iran’s influence in Syria but also disrupts its regional network of allied groups. the current geopolitical climate suggests that the U.S. and Israel might not be inclined to offer Iran a new deal.

The crucial role that Syria played as a transit hub for Iranian supplies to Hezbollah disappeared. This development weakened Hezbollah, whose arsenal in southern Lebanon was once a key point of Iranian influence. The speed of Assad’s fall revealed his dependence on Iranian and Russian support, the report explained. But Russia remains mired in its protracted war in Ukraine, and Iran’s sanctions-hit economy was struggling under international pressure. These restrictions have prevented them from making the decisive interventions that Assad needed to maintain power.

The Iranian government had long used its foreign alliances as a symbol of strength. However, the financial losses of these alliances, including the billions spent propping up Assad, have fueled discontent at home. Nationwide protests in recent years have included criticism of Iran’s costly foreign interventions, highlighting growing frustration among the population.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said 09 december 2024 that we are working in a systematic way to dismantle the axis of evil. Netanyahu added that they are working systematically to dismantle the axis of evil, and said: “We will change the Middle East. We destroyed the Hamas Brigades, struck Hezbollah in Lebanon, and killed Nasrallah.” He said that he opened a new chapter in the history of the Middle East, as the Assad regime collapsed after 54 years of rule. He considered that the axis of evil has not ended, but we are changing the Middle East and strengthening our position as a central state in the region.

The Axis of Resistance [AR = mohour maqaoma, FA = mahoor muqawmat] was a coalition of state and non-state actors in the Middle East that seeks to confront Western interests in the region, namely those of the United States and Israel. Iran, as the axis of resistance, not only plays an essential role in guiding and leading the front of resistance against the axis of compromise, but it was also considered to be the main hub of this front. The "Axis of Resistance" was Iran's proxy network. It was an informal and loose alliance composed of some Sunni and Shia Islamic organizations and governments in the Middle East.

The Axis of Resistance was an anti-American and anti-Zionist political-military alliance including Iran and Syria, and organizations such as Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis / Al-Hashd al-Shaabi, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Headquarters, Bahraini militants, and a number of other militias. The Quds Force, a branch of Iran's Revolutionary Guards, was understood to be the main point of contact for these proxy groups, providing them with weapons and training to solidify Iran's agenda in the Middle East. Iran does not fully control these organizations, but because Iran provides them with funds, training and weapons, So Iran has considerable influence over them.

Ali Akbar Velayati, advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, has even described the Taliban's Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as part of the axis of resistance, with Iran at its core , an alliance of countries seeking "resistance, independence and freedom." Iran 's prominent daily newspaper, Kayhan, also began referring to the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as a member of the axis of resistance.

Resistance includes all spheres of life including: political, economic, cultural and military. Any arena that encroaches on the system of domination, the religion of Islam and Muslims and their possessions forms the arena of resistance.

Despite the contradictions and ideological differences among the bodies, for example the seculaf Assad regime in Syria versus Iran and Hezbollah Shiites, and Hamas, a Sunni fundamentalist organization, the alliance works together against the activities of NATO , Israel and Saudi Arabia throughout the Middle East. The alliance has been described as the "axis of terror" by the Prime Minister of Israel as well as Israeli ambassadors in the world.

There are different opinions on who first coined the term "axis of resistance," but Iranian officials often use the term. George W. Bush said after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, “Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists”. It was believed that the term "axis of resistance" was in response to former US President George W. Bush's 2002 State of the Union address, which defined Iran, Iraq and North Korea as the so-called "Axis of evil" on the grounds that they support terrorism.

The term was used by the Libyan Daily, which responded to the claims of the President of the United States, George Walker Bush, that Iran , Iraq and North Korea are an " axis of evil ", in an article entitled "The Axis of Evil or the Axis of Resistance", the Libyan Daily wrote in 2002 that "the denominator The only commonality between Iran, Iraq and North Korea was their opposition to the hegemony of the United States." The Iranian newspaper Jomhouri Eslami wrote in 2004 in reference to the resistance to the American occupation in Iraq: “If the Shiites in Iraq want to unite and consolidate relations, their unity must be under the axis of resistance and struggle against the occupiers.”

The term "axis of resistance" was embraced by Khomeini after his calls for the adoption of "jurist rule" were met with strong opposition from leaders in the Arab-Sunni world. The establishment of the organization was an outgrowth of the success that Iran had, a short time before, with the foundation of the Badr organization (composed of opponents of the Iraqi regime) that worked alongside Iran in its war against Iraq. Hezbollah's commitment to Iran was expressed in a series of statements that make it clear, beyond any doubt, that it saw an Islamic order anchored in the thought of Khomeini ("the rule of the wise jurist") as the central principle in its worldview.

Since the 1980s, and for more than three decades, both Iran and Syria considered themselves representatives of the resistance in the Middle East, and one of their priorities was to support the steadfastness of the Palestinian people against the Israeli entity. During the Syrian civil war, Nasrallah threatened to respond to Israel’s attacks on targets in Syria, considering that they “target the entire axis of resistance and not Syria alone.” This was three days before Israel assassinated Hezbollah members and an Iranian leader in the Quneitra area in the Golan. Hezbollah responded to the Israeli strike in the Golan by carrying out an operation in Shebaa in Lebanon, and it confirmed that the lands of the resistance axis now form a single front.

From the multitude of statements by militia commanders and senior officials in the Iranian security establishment, it was clear that the presence in Syria has two goals: stabilizing Assad's rule and promoting the "axis of resistance" against Israel . The Iranian model aims to create a succession of forces loyal to it and partners in the "axis of resistance" idea devised by Khomeini along Israel's northern border.

“Iran has brought together a loose collection of players to make up its ‘resistance axis’ which is now a cohesive machine,” Randa Slim, the director of the Conflict and Resolutions Program at the Middle East Institute, said. “Hezbollah has talked about this idea – calling it the unification of fronts – which is like Article 5 of NATO: an attack on one is an attack on all. I don’t think this was the case in the past.” In any wider conflict, Israel will likely employ what it calls the “Dahiya Doctrine” – named after a civilian neighborhood and a Hezbollah stronghold in south Beirut – which dictates the use of disproportionate force that targets civilian and military infrastructure.

The Middle East Communication Research Institute reported 25 July 2014 "With the revitalization of the axis of resistance and the renewed and open joining of Hamas to this axis, senior Iranian leaders (Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and Speaker of the Iranian Majles Ali Larijani and a senior member of the Palestinian Authority) held telephone conversations with the head of the political department of Hamas Khaled Mashal, in which Tehran expressed a willingness to assist Hamas as much as necessary in the conflict with Israel.... the supreme leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, called for the destruction of Israel and emphasized several times the need to arm the West Bank with weapons..... [Khamenei said] "I believe [that] the West Bank should also arm itself like Gaza and that the people who care about the fate of Palestine should act on this issue to reduce the suffering and torment of the Palestinian people through their strong hand and the weakness of the Zionist enemy..." Khamenei said 29 July 2014 "Today a rabid dog in the region is doing genocide& infanticide in Gaza. Leaders of this crime should be condemned and punished."

With ISIS militarily defeated in Syria and Iraq, the Fatemiyoun Division [Lashkar Fatemiyoun], an all-Afghan Shiite militia group fighting in Syria, said its fighters will join the Lebanese Hezbollah and Iranian-sponsored Iraqi militia groups to fight Israel next. In a statement released on 21 November 2017, Fatemiyoun commanders and fighters congratulated Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and Iranian Quds Force Commander Major General Qassem Soleimani on the fall of the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, and emphasized that they will continue to fight alongside the “axis of resistance” to annihilate Israel. “Thanks to the leadership of the Leader of the Islamic World [Khamenei] and your [Soleimani’s] supreme command and prudence, a group of men have now emerged from Afghanistan and joined the axis of resistance. With their respected commander, they have sworn that they will not sit down until the elimination of the international Zionism.”

The Fatemiyoun Division had about 20,000 active fighters according to accounts provided by Iranian officials. The total number of Fatemiyoun members who fought in Syria was unclear. Experts estimate the number was between 5,000 to 20,000. Fatemiyoun was founded by leaders of two Afghan Shiite militant groups: Sepah-e Muhammad (Muhammad Army), an Iran-backed group that operated against the Taliban in Afghanistan in the 1990s, and the Abuzar Brigade, which fought alongside Iranian military forces against Iraq in the 1980s. According to Iranian military sources, more than 2,000 Afghans perished during the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s. The founder of Fatemiyoun, Alireza Tavasoli, was a veteran of the Iran-Iraq war and was a close confidante of Suleimani; when Tavasoli was killed in Syria, Soleimani visited his family to pay tribute.

A number of tactical advisers from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had been deployed to military bases across Syria. Its commanders often appear on the front lines to direct battles. Iran continues to support thousands of powerful militias trained in Syria. And new technologies, such as drones, are available to detect and perhaps attack enemies from the air. Israeli officials and enemies alike said a new conflict between Israel and Iran or any of its allies could mobilize Iran's expanding network of armed proxies in multiple countries. Iran calls the network the "axis of resistance."

Kamal Vazan, founder of the Center for Strategic Studies and who specializes in U.S. and Iranian policies in the Middle East, said in Beirut: "If there is a war, it will be regional. Any confrontation will be the entire resistance front against Israel and its supporters.” Iran and its allies began to intervene in Syria after the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011 to defend the rule of President Bashar Assad and fight against opposition forces. Later, they helped the Syrian government forces fight against the "Islamic State" extremists.

But with the rebels losing ground and posing no clear threat to Assad's continued rule, Iran and its allies stayed on, turning their focus to building infrastructure to threaten Israel, analysts say. Iran continues to train and equip fighters while strengthening ties with allies in Iraq and Lebanon in the hope of building a united front in case a new war breaks out. "In the event of another war, the ultimate goal is to make Syria a new front between Israel and Hezbollah and Iran," said Amir Toumaj, an expert on Iran at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. "They are making it possible Not just become a goal, but make it a reality.”

The assassination of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani in January 2018 created a widespread threat perception in the eyes of Iran's security decision-makers and its network of regional allies. From the point of view of the US, Israel and its Arab allies in the region, the major obstacle to the project of normalizing Arab-Israeli relations (the Abraham Accords) was removed. In the meantime, the Islamic Republic of Iran assessed Trump's brazen act of assassinating General Soleimani as the beginning of a major political-security agenda by the United States in the region, which had no other purpose than to isolate, weaken, and harm the body of Iran's regional power network.

Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of the Lebanese Hezbollah Movement, gave a speech at a ceremony held on the occasion of the martyrdom of Lt. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the commander of the Quds Force, and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, the deputy commander of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces. In a part of his interview, Nasrallah threatened: "When the coffins of the American officers and soldiers who came vertically return to the region and horizontally, Trump will understand what he did and will lose the election as well; Our will and goal in the axis of resistance should be this. The response to the bloodshed of Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi should be the expulsion of all American forces from our region; This goal will be achieved, God willing."

Many thought that the assassination of Qassem Soleimani was the beginning of the end of Iran's project of influence and regional power; In the midst of this, Israel also unveiled the Octopus offensive strategy and carried out numerous terrorist and sabotage actions both inside Iran and by attacking forces affiliated with Iran, including Syria. But the Islamic Republic, which has learned many lessons from the conflicts in the turbulent regional environment with a new security initiative that was not paid much attention, adopted a new strategy to respond to threats and to stabilize its security network in the region.

After the assassination of Martyr Soleimani, the idea of a "joint operation room" of the resistance groups was formed with the initiative of the new command of the Quds Force to create a new security lever to respond to the new political equations in the region. The new equation was the normalization of relations between Israel and the Arabs, which, according to Iran, could gather all Palestinian groups and other resistance groups around the axis of confronting it.

Three levels of action were defined for the Joint Operations Room. Palestine was the first level and the front line of the battle and conflict against Israel. The first joint operation room was also created at this level and reached the operational stage, and 12 military branches of Palestinian groups formed this operation room. It was noteworthy that the joint operations room of the Palestinian resistance groups was unveiled on the anniversary of the martyrdom of Lieutenant General Haj Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis in January 2019; where the 12 military branches of the Palestinian resistance groups held the "Strong Base" military exercise. The Palestinian groups experienced this exercise and joint military action for the first time in the form of a maneuver, and it was considered the starting point of the joint operation room.

The second level was Lebanon's Hezbollah, a balancing actor with the ability to create effective and active deterrence against Israel, especially in a conflict situation. In this regard, it was agreed that the Palestinian resistance groups should form a joint operation room with Hezbollah centered on Seyed Hassan Nasrallah (while maintaining independence in decision-making and action) in order to carry out any operations against Israel.

The third and regional level of battle tools are resistance groups in Syria, Iraq and Yemen as , especially in the situation of escalation. According to the agreements made between the resistance groups, if Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon face a valid and existential threat, other resistance groups in the region (Iraq, Syria and Yemen) will form a united front, based on symmetrical capacities. and asymmetric will come into action and joint regional operations will begin. Accordingly, with the continuous increase in the arrival of American troops, fighters and ships in the region, the resistance group throughout the region started sporadic attacks to change the American military calculations and create deterrence.

What was noteworthy was that a military force, as the initiator of the joint operation room, while defining and dividing the tasks for each at three levels, has undertaken coordination and macro-planning and logistic, military and intelligence support. The resistance front's joint operations room in the region at the above-mentioned three levels follows a multifaceted strategy including the following components:

  1. Creating deterrence with limited attacks,
  2. Ambiguity in response to aggression and threats,
  3. United front in response to existential threat,
  4. Unit action in an acute security situation,
  5. Unit decision-making in a conflict situation,
  6. Unit policy in a stable situation,
  7. Risk distribution and division of labor in response to threats.

Iranian leaders have publicly stated their commitment to building this axis of resistance against Israel and U.S. influence. Some analysts and officials say a key to Iran's strategy was not to rely on conventional military hardware or control of territory that Israel could easily bomb, but on strengthening its military base with which it shares its goals, funding and fighting skills. Benefits of relations with local forces.

This strategy allowed Iran to expand its influence in the Arab world while posing fewer threats to its own military and homeland. It also creates a problem for some countries, including the United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia. These countries worry about Iran's growing influence but struggle to think of ways to stop it.

Some in Israel began to float the idea of a potential "First Northern War," meaning that Israel would have to fight across the borders of Lebanon and Syria. Many Israelis said the danger comes not only from new Iranian-backed forces but also from Iran's practice of providing Hezbollah with advanced, high-precision weapons capable of striking sensitive infrastructure. Hezbollah was Iran's most powerful and experienced external force.

According to the Basij Qazvin news agency reporter, Seyyed Mojtabi Heydari, director of the Iraqi Trend Network office in Iran, said at the international conference of resistance and the future world of active activism that was held virtually in Qazvin 14 December 2019: "when America attacked Iraq, popular forces were created, which were derived from the Popular Mobilization Forces and the Revolutionary Guards; At the same time, with the presence of Iran in the war with ISIS, the countries of the axis of resistance entered the battle with arrogance and the axis of resistance was formed, which was actually the links of a chain emerging....

"Because the position and hegemony of the United States in the region had been shattered by the presence of General Soleimani and the formation of the axis of resistance, the Americans themselves entered this arena and martyred the general in order to defeat and destroy the axis of resistance."

The US Defense Intelligence Agency reported in 2019 that " Tehran has played the cards dealt it by the fall of Saddam, the uprising in Syria, the rise and retreat of ISIS, and the conflict in Yemen. It leads a cohesive if informal bloc of Shia and Alawi state and nonstate actors—its “Axis of Resistance” against the West. Meanwhile, a perception that the United States was disinterested and disengaged pervades the region....

"The Iran-Iraq War—which Iran refers to as the “Imposed War” and the “Sacred Defense” — ... led the regime to emphasize asymmetric capabilities and reinforce the necessity of self-reliance for decades to come. The war contributed to Tehran’s belief in the necessity of working with Shias, disenfranchised Sunnis, and nonaligned countries as an “Axis of Resistance” against the West."

Hamas officials announced in May 2022 that the movement was expected to begin a new naval effort soon, in an attempt to break the naval blockade imposed by “Israel” on Gaza. The movement had begun to unite resistance elements from all over the region, including Hezbollah, Hamas activists from southern Lebanon, pro-Iranian elements from Syria and Iraq, the Houthis from Yemen, and of course Hamas elements from within “Israel.” These parties call themselves the “Jerusalem Axis organization”.

The “Jerusalem Axis” aimed to bring about a new intifada that has already begun in the territories of the interior, the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and it was also expected to move to the Gaza Strip, with the aim of liberating Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. In light of the recent confrontations - which broke out during the month of Ramadan in the West Bank and the interior - it was gaining ground. Hamas confidence in its view of “Israel’s” response as weakness.

Hamas had been restoring its strength since the end of Operation Guardian of the Walls, rebuilding a group of offensive and defensive tunnels equipped with a wide range of weapons, including long-range, more accurate and lethal missiles, as well as continuing to equip itself with anti-aircraft missiles, helicopters, gliders and drones. It was likely that it was also preparing other new surprises.

At the same time, Hamas was working on rehabilitating its own units, led by cyber units and marine commandos. Hamas was investing in rehabilitating and developing additional capabilities for the marine commandos, including equipping them with speed boats - jet skis - which will allow them to carry out raids from sea to land on land. “Israeli” population centers near the border, and even carrying out major operations against naval ships and important national and coastal infrastructure.

One of the main and first tasks of the “Jerusalem Axis” was to break the “Israeli” naval blockade on the Gaza Strip. The multi-arena escalation during Passover and the month of Ramadan 2023 illustrated the coalescence of the Palestinian resistance axis, based on Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, with the Iran-Hezbollah axis. The timing of the escalation was also closely related to the internal crisis in Israel and reflects the excessive boldness of its enemies and their attempt to test whether its resilience has weakened so that an opportunity has been created to change the equation of deterrence against it. Iran and Hezbollah knew in advance about the launch of the rockets from southern Lebanon , and Hezbollah had even given a preliminary commitment to allow rockets to be launched from this area in the event of Israel's "desecration" of Al-Aqsa Mosque.

"If Israel goes to war, you too will return to the Stone Age," Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah threatened 14 August 2023, following the threat sent to him by Defense Minister Yoav Galant during his visit to the Mount Dov area. "If a campaign develops with the axis of resistance, there will be nothing left called Israel" The speech was broadcast on the Al-Manar network against the background of the commemoration of the anniversary of the "victory" in the Second Lebanon War held in 2006.

Senior officials of Hamas and Islamic Jihad held talks with Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah about achieving "real victory" in their war with Israel, the Lebanese group said 25 October 2023. The Hezbollah statement did not specify when or where Nasrallah met with Hamas number two Saleh al Aruri and Islamic Jihad leader Ziad Nakhaleh beyong saying that it was at an undisclosed location in Lebanon. The three groups are part of the "axis of resistance" -- Palestinian, Lebanese, Syrian and other Iran-backed armed groups opposed to Israel. They discussed what "the axis of resistance must do at this critical stage to achieve real victory... in Gaza and Palestine and stop" Israel's "brutal aggression", the statement said.

Regarding the actions of the "Axis of Resistance", Iranian Foreign Minister Abdullahian said on 31 October 2023 that it was "natural" that the resistance organization would not remain silent about Israel's aggressive actions. He warned that these groups could open multiple fronts against Israel and that the outcome "may not go the way the Israeli regime wants." Abdullahian also said the resistance group acted independently. Palestinians and the Arab world to mocked Hezbollah Secretary General for his speech Friday 02 November 2023 and express disappointment in his words. Saudi Prince Abd al-Rahman bin Masaed said that "the axis of resistance is one big lie. The Quds Force has nothing to do with Jerusalem, nor the 100,000 missiles and the massive weapons in the hands of Hezbollah. The so-called axis of resistance has been dealing with the Palestinian issue for years and is only a means of implementing the Hague "Iran's exile in the region".

"Hassan Nasrallah's speech in which he said that the campaign is a completely Palestinian operation and that the resistance axis was surprised by it, and everything that was said in the speech dropped all the masks," added Saudi Prince Bin Masaed. "Nasrallah did not believe his own speech until he said that there are all efforts to stop the war in Gaza."

On the same day, US Secretary of State Blinken, who was visiting Israel, said that Washington insists that there should be no second or third front in the conflict and was committed to preventing any party from launching aggressive actions. However, observers are generally concerned that the conflict will expand further.

Professor Liu Zhenyang, Dean of the School of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences at Nanyang Technological University, said: "Essentially, this resistance requires the elimination of the Israeli and American presence in the Middle East. Multiple Iranian leaders, past and present, have been very clear and unapologetic about this. As this transnational organization will seize the Israeli-Kazakhstan conflict as a opportunities to achieve their ends, so the conflict was likely to expand, both geographically and in terms of the actors involved.”

North Korea was part of a coalition of countries allied with Hamas and could attack the United States over the war in Gaza, a senior Hamas official said, praising Kim Jong Un as the “only one” capable of carrying out such a strike. “The leader of North Korea is, perhaps, the only one in the world capable of striking the United States. He is the only one,” Ali Baraka said during an interview posted 02 November 2023 with a Lebanese YouTube channel Spot Shot, the Washington-based Middle East Research Institute reported.

“The day may come when North Korea intervenes because it is, after all, part of [our] alliance,” he said. With the outbreak of war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, Baraka said that states that frequently experience friction with the United States or who consider Washington to be an enemy are coming together as allies. “All of America's enemies in the region are consulting and getting closer, and the day may come when they join the war together, and turn America into a thing of the past,” he said, suggesting that the United States would go the way of the Soviet Union, which collapsed in 1991.

Baraka said that Russia was in daily contact with Hamas, and that a Hamas delegation traveled to Moscow and will soon travel to Beijing. He also said that Iran – an ally of Hamas – does not have the capability to strike America, although if it decides to intervene, it could strike Israel or American bases in the region. "Iran does not have weapons that can reach America, but it can strike Israel and the American bases and ships in the region, if the U.S. clearly expands its intervention,” he said.

Seyed Hasan Mahfovi argued in 2019 that "For more than three decades, different countries have chosen different models for multilateral cooperation. The regional cooperation of resistance-oriented countries and overcoming various security challenges during the past years has caused many domestic and foreign politicians and experts to emphasize the necessity of increasing trade and economic interactions and exchanges between these countries. The formation of the union of resistance-oriented countries with an optimal model design can further improve the level of cooperation and communication between these countries....

"Currently, the countries that are known as the axis of resistance , including Iraq and Syria , have a weak economy and need to be reconstructed and strengthened in most areas. In spite of being actively present in these countries and being aware of their many capacities, the Islamic Republic of Iran has not had a clear and strategic implementation plan regarding regional economic cooperation.""

The book "Axis of Resistance" by Dr. Mehdi Hedayati Shahidani and Mohammad Reza Babaei was a description of the characteristics and aspects of the axis of resistance, which was published in the Strategic Studies Institute of Noor Thinkers. From 1998 until now, the Institute of Strategic Studies of Andishes Sazazan Noor has started its activities in various fields. Analyzing developments in the region and the world, researching the future, and compiling and implementing strategic and macro researches has been one of the most important areas of activity of this institution until now. The result of this activity was the production of more than 1000 research articles and books.

In addition to introducing the most important actors present in the axis of resistance, the book "Axis of Resistance " examines the roots of the formation of the thought system and their main developments in connection with repelling the invasions of the domination system and the regional seditions of terrorists and their supporters in eight chapters.
