Prof. Ted Postol: The U.S.–Iran War About to Break Out - Who Has the Edge?
Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions and Iran's growing ballistic missile threat to Israel. Discussion of Israel's strategic error in attacking urban targets, justifying Iranian retaliation against cities. Simulations show how improved missile accuracy (500m CEP) combined with increased numbers could cripple Tel Aviv, Haifa and other Israeli urban centers—shutting down civil society without nuclear weapons. Critique of ineffective missile defense systems (Patriot) and examination of broader geopolitical risks: Ukraine war futility, NATO's invented Russian threat narrative, and dangerous miscalculations by political leaderships prioritizing ideology over realistic security assessments. Warning that time is not on Israel's side as Iran's capabilities grow with potential Russian/Chinese technical assistance.
