Gaza: Can You Say Regional War?

With the recent drone attack on American forces in Jordan that resulted in three service members being killed, and many others wounded, it's my contention that the Biden Administration is rapidly running out of patience with Iran, and especially her proxies.

Slowly but surely, these attacks are painting Biden into a corner where he'll ultimately have no choice but to hit back hard against Iran. Surely, Iran is already cognizant of that? So, the mullahs in Tehran are playing a dangerous game of chicken, which quite likely will be to their own detriment. They need to back off and fast before they get their comeuppance. If they don't, expect this war to rapidly go regional, and who knows where it will go from there. 

The days of retaliatory pin pricks or surgical strikes are quickly coming to an end. If the proxies keep this up, they'll have hell to pay because they are definitely no match against the United States. In the final analysis, it's all up to Iran as to where this war goes. Iran, by its action or inaction, will seal its own fate unless deescalation becomes the order of the day.
