Iran’s next wave of retaliatory strikes aims to completely evict the US from the region, a feat achievable only by imposing relentless economic and military pressure and breaking the will of CENTCOM’s terrorist forces. Without a doubt, this has been Iran’s strategic target all along, and it will not back down from blockading American oil tankers. The US must remain under maximum pressure until it agrees to pack its bags and leave the region.
Iran has full reach right into the United States mainland, and it was precisely this missile test that recently sent the US begging the Pakistani side to prevent the geographical expansion of the war. In the next round and phase of the conflict, the US mainland itself and its global bases, particularly those in Europe, will be firmly in the crosshairs.
The recent redefinition of Iran’s military doctrine by its Supreme Leader explicitly underscores that neither the United States nor its European outposts will ever be safe from Iranian missiles. Meanwhile, the growing calls by Iranian demonstrators to withdraw from the NPT mark a bold new step in upgrading Iran’s nuclear deterrence.
