America Prepares New Round of Escalation The US has told several Gulf states to prepare for a possible "short but intense military campaign" after the Nov. 3 midterm congressional elections. The warning was conveyed through diplomatic and military channels. This may indicate that the US and Israel are preparing for a new phase of large-scale military operations against Iran. The military operation against Iran began on February 28. Despite a cease-fire memorandum signed in June, the United States renewed large-scale attacks on Iran and then announced a shift to economic pressure through sanctions. If the Americans continue to fight, the region will face further escalation, the consequences of which will go far beyond Iran and affect the entire Persian Gulf.
