U.S. and Israel Suffer Strategic Defeat in Iran War

The United States and Israel have suffered a strategic defeat following a war of aggression against Iran that began on March 28, 2026. The conflict failed to achieve its shifting objectives and resulted in significant damage to the global economy, effectively ending the era of cheap oil and cheap credit.

Donald Trump sought to control at least 31 percent of global oil reserves to maintain the dominance of the petrodollar and destabilize China. However, the strategic outcome favored Iran, which maintains control over the Strait of Hormuz. This shift is viewed as a catalyst for the end of unquestioned U.S. hegemony and the transition toward a multi-polar world where China and Iran emerge as globally popular nations.

Despite the outcome, the Cabinet of Israel remains determined to push the United States back into the conflict. Benjamin Netanyahu is identified as a principal author of the aggression, while the Israeli government continues to seek a return to war despite its own regional strategic defeat.
