Patrick Henningsen: Iran Strikes US Bases in Jordan – Retaliation Begins

Analysis of the escalating Iran-Israel-US conflict in June 2026. The discussion highlights Iran’s strategic shift from reactive defense to setting regional red lines, challenging US hegemony and Israeli impunity. Key points include the failure of US/Israeli offensive capabilities, the geopolitical isolation of Gulf states tied to the dollar, and Iran’s emergence as a normative power defending Palestinian and Lebanese sovereignty. The interview argues that US military overreach and support for Israel are accelerating American decline, while Iran’s patience and precise retaliation have flipped the balance of power. It critiques Western narratives, exposes the fragility of US alliances in the Middle East, and predicts a war of attrition that favors Tehran. A deep dive into how regional solidarity and resistance are reshaping West Asian geopolitics against colonial-era frameworks.
