Tension between the US and Iran has become measured by speculation over when and where a major military conflict will occur in the region. This situation is seen as a defining turning point not only for shaping the direction of the global economy but also for the political future of US President Donald Trump. Although the Iranian administration hopes to make a move relying on Trump's vulnerability, it is reported that the US plans to systematically destroy Iran's military and infrastructure capacity.
The Tehran administration is preparing to mobilize its regional proxies, such as the Houthis in Yemen and Hezbollah in Lebanon, in response to a potential US attack. In this context, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the Strait of Mandeb stands out as a threat to paralyze global maritime traffic and energy supply. In contrast, the US administration is trying to establish new political and strategic balances in the Arab geography, particularly in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, to break Iran's regional influence.
There are differing views in Washington regarding the path to be taken against Iran. While figures such as Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth favor the use of military superiority, Vice President JD Vance and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff support the pursuit of a political solution. It is also among the reported details that the US military has prepared comprehensive operation plans targeting Iran's strategic islands in the Strait of Hormuz.
