US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

[F-22Raptor]

the US loss in Iran is a lesson on the limits of US power, it is hard lesson. For American to digest .

The US has lost nothing. The vast majority of Irans military and nuclear industrial bases are destroyed, ballistic missile capability heavily degraded, and entire navy sunk.

7-8M barrels of oil per day are making it through the Omani corridor, with Brent crude at $78, and Iran fully blockaded. Irans economy is beyond cooked on top of it.

Drones and missiles will determine future war between china and US? China probably can overwhelm any country with their drones , missiles coming close to its region or Taiwan. It is beyond me why Taiwan is a problem of USA. Unfortunately American history is littered with bad strategic decisions why the USA went to Vietnam to start a war.

It shouldn't be a problem for the US, but there's nothing wrong with the US selling weapons to Taiwan to be used in case of an aggressor...

Doesn't matter much in the long run though, because if China were to militarily invade, there wouldn't be much of a Taiwan left.

China would eventually win in any conflict if the US doesn't involve itself, but it will suffer heavy losses and so will the Taiwanese.

All rech related industry will be almost immediately self-destructed

China would stand virtually. No chance of stealing any of taiwan's incredibly powerful tech industries

One thing to come out of this disastrous conflict with Iran. How do you fight China if you can’t fight Iran. That would be a stupid war for anyone to start. A war against China would be a suicide mission for the US.

Never underestimate the US industrial might.. just remember that in WWII the US has armed and transferred weapon's technology to all of Europe.. including the Soviet Union..The US is a giant in every field.. it is just playing cat and mouse with Iran..

A Chinese conflict will primarily be a defensive counter air/naval campaign. A very different set of goals relative to the Iranian conflict. Sinking the Chinese Navy goes a long way towards winning that war.

A lot of made up tactical victories, little strategic depth. Dead American soldiers, a closed international waterway, depleted munition stocks, , a more hardline Tehran Government, numerous US aircraft and defence systems destroyed. There is no way this is anything less than a strategic defeat.

Decades of war experience hasn’t taught the U.S A thing about facing -off with a peer military capable of hitting back harder. They have allowed decades of bullying poor, defenceless countries to feed a fantasy scenario in the their heads where they are an omnipotent power.

Tehran may be anything at this point but not hard anymore.
US/Isr well calculated moves have created enough space for publicly elected Politicians to gain the actual control of Tehran from Clerics but yes still a long way to go.

To be fair if the Russians didn’t have a large nuclear arsenal I wouldn’t call them a superpower anymore but I agree with you even if we account for all the help Ukrainians have received from outside pretty sad show
