• Iran’s mosaic defense strategy continues to enable regional long-range missile and drone strikes on US and proxy military and now economic infrastructure;
• Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz also indicates that initial US decapitation strikes have failed to disrupt well-prepared mosaic defense operations;
• The US is now bombing internal security facilities in Iran hoping to shape the ground ahead of US-backed terrorism inside Iran aimed at toppling the Iranian government. However, Iran also has organized internal security against this threat into a mosaic defense strategy, only time will tell if it will overcome US plans in the hours, days, and weeks ahead.
• China is not intervening in the US war on Iran for realistic logistical and military limitations and has, instead, supported Iran in a number of other important and more effective ways economically, industrially, and in terms of military support.

• The US is now talking about the possibility of backing an armed proxy invasion of Iran using militias;

• The US is also not ruling out US boots on the ground in Iran;

• Both options were laid out in detail along with backing terrorism inside Iran, using Israel to attack Iran by proxy, and the launching of an extensive US air campaign against Iran in the 2009 Brookings paper, “Which Path to Persia;”

• These are all options the US prepared for, well ahead of time and is only piecemeal selling to the public to make it appear that developments are “organic” rather than premeditated.
