I dont see IR winning this war, only positive for them, from this war is, US piles up its debt.
nothing more, IR can do..
loss of bases can be recovered unlike IR economy
although, IR effort is commendable, but, one has to be cognizant, USA is the head of western civilization, it is almost impossible to cut its head.
strangulation can only buy you time, nothing more
for instance, you say IR destroyed USA airforce, so IR won
right, I would argue, USA has cities has like LA, NY, Chicago etc etc. These cities have infrastructure, world has never seen before, IR are destroying their culture or civilization (on the flip side, theirs are being destroyed!)
(let alone having world leading research institutions!)
so, IR can only cause harm in the region more than it can alleviate pain!
sorry, it is just my reading
I could be wrong as well! Im not a smart person, only a keen observer
