The latest blow to America's leadership in West Asia.
Foreign policy:
🔹 America is stuck in a long war where a decisive victory is almost impossible, and Iran has been thriving in such an environment for a long time.
Persian Gulf countries such as Bahrain, Kuwait and Qatar have no alternative routes other than the Strait of Hormuz, and Saudi Arabia has realized that it cannot rely on moving oil to the Red Sea.
When the dust settles again, the new campaign may prove to be the final blow not to the Iranian government, but to the American leadership in the region.
