The analysis addresses Donald Trump's decision to launch a new war against Iran, highlighting that this action was taken without congressional approval, without allied support, and without any post-conflict plan. The article compares this decision with the strategic errors committed by Washington after the September 11, 2001 attacks, suggesting that the lessons from these interventions were not learned.
The text notes that twenty-five years have passed since the September 11 attacks, a period during which the United States became involved in wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya. The analysis argues that, despite this history of prolonged military interventions and their associated costs, Washington continues to repeat similar strategic patterns.
The intervention against Iran is presented as an example of how U.S. foreign policy has not absorbed the consequences of previous wars, maintaining a military approach without due preparation for long-term consequences. The article suggests an implicit critique of the continuation of a strategy that does not substantially differ from those that led to the interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya.
