As Cowboy pointed out, this war only served to make Iran more powerful. Maybe you should self reflect instead of writing books as replies on a forum

As Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels utilized every available communication channel. By monopolizing and tightly controlling German media, his ministry reached 50 million Germans through the following primary methods:RadioRecognizing radio as a groundbreaking medium, Goebbels pioneered its use as a direct conduit into people's homes. The ministry subsidized the mass-production of cheap, easily manufactured radios called the Volksempfänger (People’s Receiver), and installed public loudspeakers on streets and in factories to ensure constant, inescapable ideological messaging.Film and NewsreelsGoebbels used cinema to blend entertainment with intense political persuasion. State-funded and idealized documentaries like Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will promoted Nazi supremacy, while explicitly antisemitic films like The Eternal Jew targeted scapegoats. During World War II, the ministry centralized competing newsreel companies into one daily production (Deutsche Wochenschau) and played them in all movie theaters, editing them specifically to manufacture morale.Print and PressWithin months of taking power, the regime destroyed the free press by shutting down opposition newspapers and taking over established periodicals. The Holocaust Encyclopedia notes that Goebbels' Press Division issued daily, mandatory directives that dictated what could or could not be published. Print media—ranging from newspapers to targeted posters and children's books—were used to spread hate-filled rhetoric and dehumanize Jewish people.Rallies and ParadesGoebbels highly valued the theatrical, performative elements of propaganda. He orchestrated massive state-sponsored events, such as the annual Nuremberg Rallies, to create a sense of overwhelming national power and unity. Events filled with torches, NSDAP symbols, and epic dramatic speeches were carefully designed to manipulate the masses into a state of zealous devotion.The Arts and Public SpacesGoebbels sought to "Nazify" all German culture. He established the Reich Chamber of Culture in 1933, barring Jewish and anti-Nazi artists from professional work. He notoriously organized mass book burnings in 1933, orchestrated crusades against "degenerate art," and saturated cities with the cult of Hitler's personality by placing paintings, posters, and busts of the leader in every public venue and home
