Since the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Iranian-backed armed forces have posed a constant threat to the United States. Both anti-American forces in Iraq and Syria and the Houthis in Yemen have close ties to Iran. These forces use advanced ** supplies from Iran, such as ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and long-range attack drones. These attacks not only pose a huge security risk to US military bases in the Middle East, but also pose a serious threat to US vessels in the waters of the Red Sea.
According to reports, a number of merchant ships have been attacked in the Red Sea in recent months, and the United States has been attacked by Houthi drones in response to distress signals. These clashes lasted for several hours, but the United States** claimed that it could not assess whether the American ship had been targeted. This response has caused dissatisfaction among some American ***. In addition, the frequency of attacks on the US military in the Middle East is also worrying, with nearly 80 attacks taking place since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. These attacks not only threaten the security of the US military in the Middle East, but also put the United States in a difficult situation.
In the face of the threat to the United States from Iranian-backed armed forces, Biden**'s response was perceived as weak, sparking internal controversy and discontent. Some U.S. leaders believe that Biden is deliberately downplaying the risks faced by U.S. forces in order to avoid being drawn into a conflict in the Middle East. However, this response has left some hawkish politicians frustrated and dissatisfied, who have called for a military strike against Iran to eliminate the security threat to US military forces in the Middle East.
However, it is not for nothing that the United States downplays the risks facing the US military in the Middle East. As a powerful regional power, Iran has a huge advantage in military strength and strategic deployment. Launching a campaign to quickly force Iran to surrender will be enormous, and Iran is prepared for potential invaders with a variety of counterattacks** capable of making the invaders pay a huge price. Therefore, Biden** is rational and wise in his decision to avoid war with Iran for the time being.
Biden's response and policies can be seen as a new strategy aimed at avoiding being drawn into the maelstrom of conflict in the Middle East. By providing military support to a number of countries, the United States hopes to confront Iran by weakening Iran's war potential through their sacrifices. This strategic model has already been practiced in the Ukrainian conflict.
However, the strategy has also faced some challenges and criticisms. Some hawkish politicians believe that the United States should take more active measures to launch a direct military strike against Iran to address security threats in the Middle East. However, Iran's vast military power and strategic deployment make such military operations severe, dangerous, and costly. Therefore, Biden ** decided to avoid a war with Iran for the time being and resolve the security problems in the Middle East through reasonable diplomatic means.
Biden's decision to avoid war with Iran does not mean that the United States is timid or weak, but out of rational and practical considerations. The United States is now facing multiple challenges and problems at home, and cannot afford the enormous cost of a war with Iran.
The conflict situation in the Middle East is complex and volatile, and the United States will face many uncertainties and risks when it intervenes. In addition, the United States also needs to deal with major issues such as domestic economic development, epidemic prevention and control, and people's welfare. Therefore, in order to safeguard the overall interests and security of the country, Biden ** decided to avoid war with Iran and resolve security issues in the Middle East through diplomatic means.
In the face of the continued threat of Iranian-backed armed forces, Biden has chosen to avoid being drawn into the maelstrom of conflict in the Middle East and resolve security issues in the Middle East through reasonable diplomatic means. Although this decision has caused some internal controversy and dissatisfaction, it is rational and sensible given Iran's military strength and strategic deployment, as well as the struggles and dilemmas in the United States. The United States needs to put the overall interests and security of the country first, handle Middle East affairs prudently, and avoid unnecessary war.
