US and Israel continue to bomb Iran, with thick smoke constantly rising from the capital Tehran.
The confrontation between the US-Israel and Iran is now entirely non-contact, mainly through air strikes. This is also a major characteristic of modern warfare and demonstrates the importance of air power.
At the same time, it should be noted that the confrontation is not only about military strength but also about willpower. During the Afghanistan war, the Taliban's strength was incomparably inferior to that of the US forces and their allies, yet they persisted in resistance for 20 years, finally forcing the US to leave Afghanistan in a humiliating manner.
However, many countries and regions around the world are far behind the Taliban in terms of resistance willpower, tending to kneel down, which is one of the important reasons why the United States remains so arrogant. Between resistance that costs lives and submission that is humiliating, most people choose to submit.
What choice Iran will ultimately make can only be seen by waiting. Because there has always been a struggle between the pro-war faction and the surrender faction within Iran, and it has never shown unity among the people. Therefore, the uncertainty of the future remains quite high. Although objectively speaking, as long as the US and Israel do not deploy large-scale ground forces for an invasion, Iran will not lose. However, the instability within Iran makes it difficult for Iran to unify its will in the confrontation with the US and Israel. The deaths of Khamenei and many Iranian officials in Israeli and American air raids have further increased the uncertainty within Iran.
