the power of resources

[EluguHcman]

Of course. The mathematics of this war was all carefully done before the first bomb was dropped. I'm not sure if they're getting some things wrong or certain developments surprised them along the way, but I'm sure the US isn't sacrificing anything for whatever selfish goal they have in mind in this war, except perhaps the lives of their own people, which I guess they don't value enough. I don't think they'd create this violence if it results into making their daily lives uncomfortable.

The US already have one of the strongest military strategies with a high degree of warfares.
So apparently before they launched the attack on the Iran, every necessary strategies must had been put to place in order to have an edge against the war.

Of course all of the plans and executions of every single move against the war surely consume resources of which we can not say they are loosing a dime in the war rather the costs of resources budgeted for the war may not affect their (US) economy system.
It is also unbelievable that the US government's does not value the lives of their own people. We also see the reactions of the US Presidents when they loses their military personnels.

Iran is only showing their positivity in trying harder to never give up in the fight as a religious country they are, but I am doubting if they'll be supported by other neighboring countries, and I don't know if Iran had been ready for something like this before now, and if they haven't, they should start from now onwards, even other countries should start packing up warfare resources from now.

Because preparing resources ahead from now should be arranged by the inner cabinet because tomorrow isn't known how it may be.

You have a nice argument here, countries are buckling up on the side, nobody is aware of who or what would be next. Over 1200 infantries deployed to the middle east few days ago, signifies that a strong fight awaits both sides, costing more lives of young deligent soldiers. It's sad to see this is turning to something else, hopefully not a religious war, because other countries like Saudi in the middle east are in support of Iran not having a nuclear weapon.

If this war lasts long then Middle Eastern countries will suffer the most and Iran will never accept defeat because it is almost impossible to defeat them. If at any time nature provides security to a country, it is the most difficult task for other countries to intervene. If Trump attacks gas bunkers in Iran, Iran has made it clear that it will attack all bunkers in the middle east. Because America and Israel use the oil from middle east countries the most. And this is why the Strait of Hormuz was closed in the first place. And for this other states have faced fuel and oil crisis and most of the prices have gone up. The condition of my country is not very good.Already fuel and oil crisis has occurred.

Iran claimed it took them 20 years or more to prepare for this day. They knew this day would come, and were prepared to stay till the last minute. Of course, they are aware of the suffering that comes with it, even how hard it will take them to recover from it. Also, the neighbouring countries will suffer the most because they were caught off guard. The current price of oil is only the beginning of what is coming. Soon, Trump will have no other option but to pause the war.

US President Donald Trump threatened to “blow up” the world’s largest gas field, a key Iranian asset, if Tehran keeps up its attacks on Qatar.

because of the crisis in middle east that doesn't look any near from stopping, the price of oil has hit higher again. i do not think any of the countries are willing to surrender. all has something to fight for. it will only be over when everything is said and done and by then, what would be the state of the world? i was thinking why usa has so much confidence and the answer is because while they will benefit from the oil in the middle east, they get most of their oil from canada. when you have the resources, you can really afford to start and sustain a war.

To quote 2Pac, “they have money to start wars but not to feed the poor”. The US has a long history of neglecting domestic issues while jumping into conflicts just to prove global strength. Whether the situation with Iran affects their oil reserves directly or not, one thing is clear, it is already putting pressure on their internal economy. At the end of the day, war is not just about military power or who has more resources, it is about strategy and resilience. Having access to oil or strong supply chains like from Canada may give confidence, but it does not mean everything will go as planned. These kinds of conflicts always come with deeper consequences than expected.
