Just before the raid, CNN, citing an unnamed senior U.S. official, reported that Israel warned the Biden administration that the attack on Iran would take place in the next 24 to 48 hours and that the Israeli attack would be "limited" and would not target Iran's nuclear facilities.
But the reality is that this is a slap in the face, and it also means that the situation in the Middle East is no longer controllable, and the targets of Israeli strikes include the transformation plant in Isfahan, Iran, the regional uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, and even the heavy water reactor in Arak and the uranium enrichment facility in the Fordau area. Among them, Iran's Isfahan has Iran's key nuclear facilities, which are also nuclear test sites, and have Iran's largest uranium enrichment facility.
In addition, Iraq's Baghdad and Syria have also been bombed by Israeli forces, and Israel is probably thinking of specifically targeting high-value targets such as senior military advisers or weapons depots of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. Attacking three countries in one night is also too arrogant for Israel, which also means that Israel's extremists have unified their high-level thinking.
Then the attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, Iran's counterattack will never be the same as last time, Iran has said before that if Israel dares to retaliate, Iran will use "weapons that have never been used"; If Israel attacks Iran's nuclear facilities, Iran will also "reciprocate" to wipe out Israel's nuclear facilities.
Now we can conclude that the US military will definitely be forced to end in the Middle East, and the current military power of the US military is difficult to cope with Iran's crazy retaliation, but it is not Israel that will send the United States on its last journey, but the US military-industrial complex.
Iran will certainly retaliate, and the last time it fired back was with the United States, so what about this time? Will Iran's second self-defense retaliation greet the United States and give Israel another blow without any pain? Or will Iran turn the table, but in either case, it means that Iran will definitely take action against Israel.
And the U.S. military is definitely going to end again, but the extent of the end depends on Iran's counterattack, and the last time, when Iran greets again, the U.S. military still has not effectively intercepted Iran's drones and missiles. This also shows that even if the U.S. military builds an early warning network in advance, it is difficult to effectively intercept missiles and drones, you know, in order to control the intensity of the counterattack, Iran uses most of the improvised drones and old ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, and it takes several hours from Iraq to arrive in Israel, which gives the U.S. military Israel plenty of time to prepare.
In particular, Iran's hypersonic missiles, which were discovered by the United States, Britain and Israel, and quickly activated air defense systems to intercept them. However, what is unexpected is that the United States, Britain and other so-called very powerful air defense systems are all ineffective.
Dozens of video footage circulated on the Internet, in the face of Iranian hypersonic missiles, the United States anti-aircraft missiles launched many of them, but they could not intercept them at all. Similarly, Israel's air defenses have no choice but to watch as Iran's hypersonic missile hits Israel's Nevatim airbase and causes a violent explosion.
In the interception of Iranian missiles, the interception of just four Iranian missiles cost $140 million, compared to the total cost of four intermediate-range ballistic missiles launched by Iran is only millions of dollars. This large number raises concerns about the cost-effectiveness of the U.S. military's defense system and its ability to respond in the face of a more powerful adversary in the future.
If Iran really launches a large-scale retaliation, the US military will end up in the Middle East, and there will only be one outcome that will not be able to contain Iran's strike, and the final result will be the loss of hegemony in the Middle East.
It is safe to say that the current situation in the Middle East is not the state that the United States wants, but Israel no longer listens to the United States, and the United States has no choice but to keep Israel.
In the final analysis, the current military power of the US military is no longer sustainable. The Russian-Ukrainian war, the Red Sea crisis, and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict also have to blockade China in the western Pacific, which has already made the United States anxious, and it is an unattainable goal for the US military to deal with Iran's counterattack.
You must know that Iran is a global drone and missile power, and just intercepting the inferior drones and missiles of the Houthis in the Red Sea has already made the US military a little embarrassed, and it has also led to the bombing of escort merchant ships, unless the US military really makes up its mind to mobilize global military forces, and the army directly enters Iran to launch a new Gulf War. But will Russia, Palestine, and China let China go, and if the United States really transfers military forces from the Western Pacific, then it will be very slim if it wants to return to the Western Pacific.
Moreover, Iran has a large number of hypersonic missiles, and once the two sides completely tear their faces, even if the US military ends up in all directions, it will need to pay a very big price if it wants to defeat Iran.
It can be said that it is not Israel that has pushed the United States into such a situation of being in such a situation of disarray, it can be said that it is not Israel that has sent the United States on its last journey, but the military-industrial complex of the United States.
The greed of the US military-industrial complex led to the shrinking of US military power, and it was also the greed of the military-industrial complex that led to the uncontrollable situation in the Middle East and finally sent the United States away.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the greed of the US military industrial complex has been unrestrained, and the output of the US military has been extremely low. In terms of weapons research and development, none of the new projects can be completed normally and smoothly: Columbia, Zumwalt, Ford, LCS, Burke 3, Constellation, Sentinel ICBM, F35, F15EX, T-7A, AGM183A hypersonic weapons, LRHW/CPS, LRASM, M10 light tank, light mobile support vessels, 58x diameter artillery, PRSM missiles......
From 2017 to 2022, 7 trillion defense funds have not been completed, and the audit has failed for 5 consecutive years, and there is no reasonable explanation, which shows the greed of the US military industrial complex, but even so, the American military industrial complex is still thinking about starting a war and grabbing wealth.
It can be said that what the United States is experiencing today has long been foreseen, and when the US military-industrial complex has completely hollowed out the US military strength, it has also caused continuous global wars because of the mines planted in the world, and the United States has also been trapped, thus falling into a vicious circle, and the final result of this evil cycle is the collapse of US hegemony. If it weren't for the U.S. continuous arms sales to Israel and connivance with Israel, how could Israel slide uncontrollably, and after Iran counterattacked Israel, the U.S. is still planning to sell as many as 50 American-made F-15 fighter jets to Israel, with a total transaction value of more than $18 billion.
In order to sell more weapons, the United States even agreed to carry out ground operations in Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip, in exchange for the Israeli side not to carry out a large-scale counterattack against Iran. This has further made the Israeli extremists believe that no matter how outrageous their behavior is, the United States will take care of it, but the current situation is that it is difficult for the United States to get to the bottom of it.
As the American current affairs commentator Jimmy Doerr said
The enemy of the United States is none other than precisely the military-industrial complex, which "plundered the country of trillions of dollars." "The war machine cannot be stopped. Who's running the country? It's the war machine. "The U.S. military-industrial complex not only harms the world, but also seriously erodes the U.S. itself and harms the interests of the American people.
It can be said that the current results of the US military are completely self-inflicted.
