Analysts have been aware of the pre-planned sequence of attacks on Iraq and Iran following the invasion of Afghanistan for some time, ‘two down, one to go’ – the plan was conceived years ago. The utilisation of ‘strategic’ nuclear weapons, so-called bunker-busters, in future warfare was also clearly indicated by the US military during the Afghan campaign. The planned attack on Iran incorporating nuclear weapons should not surprise anyone. The USA has proven to the world that it is unable to prevail in sustained conventional warfare. The troops and the nation are simply not up to the task, successful ground combat is now beyond the capability of the USA – China, Russia and other powers have taken note.
