It seams like the US isn't interested in winning wars, they just like starting them and then extending them for as long as possible.
The way that normally works is that the US will isolate a country that can't fight back and then commit war crimes there for decades because it's a good profit vehicle for the military industry. They control the level of escalation, and they're able to turn heat up when they want or to cool things down when they need to.
The difference with Iran is that it's not isolated, and it's able to fight back in a meaningful way. The US does not have escalatory dominance in this conflict. And that's a whole new development for the burger reich.
