Iranian strategists believe that a war of attrition with the United States will harm President Donald Trump far more than it will damage the regime of the ayatollahs. This assessment comes as the two nations are locked in an escalating conflict, with military operations intensifying across the region.
According to reports, the US and Iran are now engaged in a full-blown attrition war, with each side raising the stakes in an attempt to break the other’s will. For hours, US fighter jets, drones, and naval vessels have been active in operations against Iranian forces.
The Iranian evaluation suggests that Trump, facing domestic political pressures and an upcoming election, is more vulnerable to the costs of a prolonged conflict. The regime calculates that it can endure the attrition better than the American president can.
This strategic insight sheds light on Iran’s approach to the current confrontation and could have significant implications for the trajectory of the conflict and US foreign policy.
