Joint American and Israeli strikes on
Iran are expanding into a broader
regional fight. The entire periphery is
now on the verge of a multi-theater war
unlike anything seen in the conflict so
far. Trump has framed the campaign as a
systematic effort to dismantle Iran's
ability to threaten US interests. He
says the campaign targets Iran's missile
arsenal, naval forces, nuclear program,
and proxy networks. But it may be more
than that. Explosions have been reported
in and around Thran, including near the
presidential palace, the Supreme Leader
Compound, and buildings belonging to
senior Iranian political and security
officials. Thick smoke and repeated
detonations in the capital and elsewhere
were reported by multiple news outlets
as part of the military assault. And
although precise details are still
emerging, several senior officials have
reportedly been killed in these
decapitation strikes, including the
Supreme Leader himself. The goal has
shifted from keeping Iran in check to
breaking its will. Iran understands this
and sees the fight as existential, which
is why it is now expanding the battle
space. Hundreds of Iranian missiles and
drones have struck economic and military
assets across multiple Arab states,
including Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar,
Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and the
UAE. In fact, Iran has fired roughly as
many missiles at the Arab nations as it
has at Israel in the first wave. So,
both the Americans and Iranians are
climbing the escalation ladder, but for
different reasons. While Trump believes
that Iran won't escalate, Iran believes
that Trump can't sustain escalation.
We're now trapped in that cycle.
Conflicts usually begin with actions,
but they spiral on assumptions.
