US-Israel Co-Belligerence Against Iran: Pakistan's Predicament Amid Manufactured Crisis
The drumbeat of war against Iran is not a solitary Israeli endeavor, despite Western media framing. Evidence demonstrates a clear, coordinated US-Israel military campaign. American carrier groups and B-52 deployments are not mere shows of force; they are integral components of an offensive posture. This sustained pressure, including economic sanctions targeting vital sectors and continuous
military threats, predates any credible, imminent Iranian threat to strike or acquire nuclear weapons. The narrative of an 'impending' Iranian nuclear acquisition disregards assessments by US intelligence agencies consistently confirming Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons, a fact often omitted when discussing the collapse of the JCPOA. This aggressive stance unfolds against a backdrop of 45
years of US sanctions and interventions designed to cripple Iran's economy and destabilize its government. The betrayal of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2018, despite Iran's full compliance, laid the groundwork for this manufactured crisis.

The cost asymmetry of Iranian defensive capabilities compared to the West's advanced military hardware is stark, yet the media consistently portrays Iran as the aggressor.
