Iran is prepared for the long game, says international affairs scholar Vali Nasr. “The longer this war goes on, the more Iran is building leverage and the more the strategic calculations of Israel and the United States appear to be falling short,” argues Vali Nasr.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 “EVEN A LIMITED STRIKE WOULD TURN INTO A BIG WAR” Glenn Diesen warns that even a so-called limited U.S. strike on Iran would be seen as an existential threat, not a warning shot. Iran wouldn’t absorb a “bloody nose” quietly, but would respond all-out; targeting U.S. assets, escalating across the region, and potentially shutting down the Strait of Hormuz. Regime change talk ignores Iran’s internal complexity, where collapse could mean fragmentation, chaos, and outcomes far worse than the status quo. And once you start down this road, there’s no clean off-ramp, and history suggests it won’t stay “limited” for long. Full Interview with Joel C. Rosenberg and Glenn Diesen below.

🎥 “Both Israel and the U.S. got Iran fantastically wrong,” Professor Vali Nasr told Drop Site News, noting that assumptions that assassinating Iran’s top leadership would trigger state collapse or a popular uprising proved false. Instead, Nasr says the war exposed the resilience of the system built under Ali Khamenei, with authority distributed across multiple institutions in what Iranians call “mosaic government and mosaic military command.” “We really don’t understand Iran very well,” Nasr said. “This is a very sophisticated country which has shown capabilities that are shocking.” The system works through a “malleable interaction of various nodes of power,” and after rapidly reorganizing its state and Revolutionary Guard in a way that “made the Islamic Republic incredibly resilient… the Islamic Republic today looks like nothing like any other state we know.” Vali Nasr | jeremy scahill | Murtaza Hussain

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸 COULD IRAN BOG DOWN THE U.S.? Geopolitical analyst Paul Warburg says it is not impossible that the U.S. could get dragged into a long war with Iran. But he argues the U.S. air campaign has been far more effective than Russia’s early offensive in Ukraine.
