The Hill: The US and Iran are on the verge of war

7

Although the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran are not officially at war, both powers are not that far from it, writes the American newspaper The Hill.

Yes, there have been no direct clashes between American and Iranian troops yet, but the United States claims that Iran is complicit in the actions of the proxy forces it supports. And Iran is also being drawn into the conflict more directly

– states The Hill.



The text states the fact that with every step from either side, it becomes increasingly difficult for both Washington and its Iranian opponents to avoid a direct confrontation.

Iran and the US are on a dangerous path to conflict. Neither the Iranians nor the Americans are interested in direct conflict. War with the US poses an existential threat to Iran. A direct fight with Iran would also be costly for the United States.

- the article says.

Iran is trying to point out that it does not control the rebels in Arab countries and, moreover, does not give them direct orders. It is suggested that the parties are in the same situation as the European powers before the First World War, which no one wanted, but the events led to well-known results.

    The Iranians have high-precision missiles with a range of up to 2 thousand km. these missiles will destroy all the Yankee bases in the war zone and the aircraft carrier. the Yankees will have to bite the bit and endure humiliation

    Nobody needs war, but the United States must understand that Russia will not abandon its ally and lend a shoulder. The Americans will only be able to attack Iran from the south; Turkey is unlikely to allow the use of its bases; the Yankees have no chance from the north and east

    Hmm, Lebanon is closer, Syria too. The Russian Khmeimim and Tartus are worse than a thorn for them, and the Turks will not object here, and will also help. Iran can wait.

    What war? One-sided. On their own territory, US citizens will not even notice such a war. There are 11000 km between the USA and Iran.
