Iran is openly considering taking the war beyond the Middle East, including possible strikes against U.S. and allied military targets in Europe. Meanwhile, Tehran is behaving less like a government looking for an exit and more like one convinced it has already won.
And Washington's response? That's where this gets uncomfortable.
The UAE has now suspended trade with Iran following renewed ballistic missile fire, while Iranian officials publicly describe a new Middle East in which Tehran emerges stronger. Israel, meanwhile, is signaling that it has unfinished business inside Iran.
The source program also connects this escalation with the increasingly dangerous confrontation between Russia, Ukraine and NATO, arguing that these supposedly separate wars are beginning to look like pieces of the same global struggle.
What this means:
0:00 Iran Escalates While the U.S. Stays Quiet
2:26 Iran Claims Victory and Regional Dominance
5:55 Netanyahu Signals Israel Is Not Finished With Iran
7:54 NATO and Russia Edge Toward Confrontation
11:05 Putin Admits Ukraine’s Strikes Are Hurting Russia
