Misguided fury: America’s war on Iran could boomerang in a way it doesn’t seem to realize


Consider what Iran represents as a theatre. At over 90 million people, its population exceeds the combined populations of Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan at the time of their respective US wars. Over 4 million of its citizens live across the West—a politically engaged diaspora now watching their homeland burn. Iran’s landmass is larger than all three of those killing grounds combined. A nation of that size, with thousands of years of civilizational memory, cannot be pummelled into submission.
