The strategic risks for the US of continued war with Iran

Lt Col Daniel Davis and Mario Nawfal analyse the severe depletion of US military munitions and the economic dangers of maintaining a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, warning that the US lacks the industrial capacity for a sustained multi-front war.

They conclude that, despite political pressures, there is a significant risk of failure if the US escalates, suggesting that a diplomatic exit may be the most rational path forward.
