07/20/26 The Escalation Trap
from Brett Breaks Things
With more American troops killed, dozens of military injuries allegedly withheld from the public, and the United States launching another round of strikes against Iran, the conflict is slipping deeper into a dangerous cycle of retaliation. We examine Jordan's emergence as a new flashpoint, Iran's increasingly deadly missile capabilities, the renewed talk of negotiations, and the growing cost at home as gas prices return to $4 a gallon.
