This campaign, which was not strategically planned, is now entering a phase of frustration and confusion. More importantly, these actions are undermining the very objective they are meant to achieve creating the conditions for regime change.
Instead, they are bringing all sides closer to further escalation, one that is more likely to inflict global economic damage than compel Iran to capitulate.
There is no “silver bullet” here, no single strike or set of targets that will cause the regime to collapse. Not bridges, not steel plants, and not power stations. Such actions may demonstrate capability, but they do not produce strategic outcomes.
If anything, they are accelerating Iran’s response and that of its regional network, while increasing the likelihood of expanded Houthi operations. The trajectory is not toward resolution, but toward broader escalation.
This is not a coherent campaign, it is strategic improvisation. And strategic improvisation, in this context, does not bring regime change closer; it pushes it further away. What it does produce is a widening conflict, greater instability, and a war that is likely to last longer than anticipated
