Dr. Wakim argues that Washington struck because it knows its position is deteriorating.

Professor Jamal Wakim frames the Iran war in a way most mainstream coverage can’t handle: this isn’t just Iran vs the U.S. and Israel. It’s a stress test of a collapsing global order. In this segment, Dr. Wakim argues that Washington struck because it knows its position is deteriorating. And he uses a historical analogy: Iran today is Egypt in 1956, and the U.S. today is Britain in 1956, a declining power trying to seize key positions before it can’t compete anymore. Then he delivers the geopolitical punchline: Iran doesn’t need to “win” dramatically. It only needs to stay resilient. If Tehran stays on its feet and the U.S.-Israeli plan fails, Wakim says the last three years of “indecisive victories” start to reverse, with ripple effects across Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, and the Syrian theater itself. Watch this clip. It’s one of the clearest explanations of why this war is bigger than the battlefield. .
