Persian Gulf Front
by Heritage University
This podcast talks about how a shadow war of assassinations and proxy militias between Iran, and the US has turned into a direct, undeclared war. The main point I'm trying to make is that neither side wants a full-scale war. Instead, a dangerous cycle of escalation and de-escalation has begun. Each strike is meant to restore deterrence, but it actually makes the risk of a catastrophic miscalculation higher. By examining significant events, including drone strikes, nuclear site confrontations, and conflicts in the Strait of Hormuz, I will illustrate that averting World War III necessitates comprehending the ostensibly irrational rational agents ensnared in a traditional security dilemma.
