Description
Colonel Douglas Macgregor believes that Washington is not acting as an independent player in the Middle East region because Netanyahu can veto the most significant decisions of the United States related to Iran. In addition, the Colonel states that the attempts of undermining the Iranian government through instilling domestic unrest, decapitation strategy, and massive bombing during weeks did not reach its goals.
Iran can be described as a 2,000-year-old civilization that cannot be defeated by airstrikes. Moreover, Macgregor believes that Israel faces declining strategic superiority, and increasing issues with reservists joining Israeli ground forces. Despite all the issues with the ground troops, Israel air force is still a strong tool for military action. Therefore, Colonel Macgregor also talks about the overall history of US military actions starting from Korea, Vietnam War, Iraq, and up to the war in Afghanistan. Many of these wars were characterized by lack of strategic objectives, and in case with Iran, there will be no exceptions.
Furthermore, Macgregor highlights the issue of increasing oil prices related to the Persian Gulf conflict in Iran. According to Macgregor, inflation in the USA increases from 3.2% to 3.8%, and 17.8 million barrels have been released from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to suppress prices and warns that reserve levels could approach critical lows by late summer.
