From Brian Berletic:
First Principles: Why the US Will Continue War with Iran
The US’ primary goal is global primacy.
Attacking Iran is driven by a desire to isolate Russia and China further by eliminating a partner and fully controlling an economically vital region of the world.
Part of this isolation specifically for China involves cutting off energy exports from Iran to China.
The US can also use its own war of aggression against Iran to implement a defacto blockade on all or much of the energy leaving the entire Middle East to China and also many of China’s largest and most important trade partners.
A collapse in consumer demand means a collapse in demand for Chinese production the US has been complaining about and desperately trying to target for years.
The US is also using this opportunity to normalize a global blockade of all Iranian ships just as it has the “shadow fleet.”
This has always been expanding toward a general, global blockade.
Everything is aimed at a more direct and serious confrontation with both Russia (whom the US is still waging proxy war/covert war on) and China.
Because of this fundamental reality, no “peace” of any kind was EVER possible with Iran unless Iran and its allies could physically impose it on the US which at this point is still not realistic or possible.
So the war will inevitably continue and only the excuses of why it will continue remain to be crafted and presented.

Good thing Iran knows all of this, and are actively preparing for the inevitable next round. And Russia and China will not stand idly by, however much they downplay their roles publicly.
