Yes, the U.S. Does Have a Plan – Spanning Decades With Implications Far Beyond Iran
Saturday, March 14, 2026
The US has been working towards this war on Iran throughout the entire 21st century spanning multiple presidential administrations;
The region was reshaped by US invasions and the arming of extremists under Bush, the “Arab Spring,” the “Iran Nuclear Deal,” and subsequent additional wars under Obama, the collapse of Syria under Biden, and launching direct war with Iran under Trump;
The war on Iran constitutes multiple phases of economic, political, covert, and direct military aggression hoping to collapse it just as Iraq was over the course of the 1990s and early 2000s;
US control over Iran and the Middle East directly serves wider geopolitical objectives regarding the isolation and containment of Russia and especially China;
Part of the US appearing to “not” have a plan is to avoid talking about how long and costly this war on Iran is and likely will need to be, and the larger more dangerous objective it fits into in regards to Russia and China.
