Empire Undone
Iran’s resilience shattered America’s myth of invincibility. What began as a war of choice quickly turned into a spectacle of collapse. Trump’s bravado gave way to contradictions, denials, and humiliation, while Israel scrambled for cover under relentless strikes.

Washington’s refrain — “Iran’s capabilities make invasion risky” — masked the harsher truth: America cannot beat Iran. Diplomatically, sanctions were lifted under pressure, oil reserves drained, and NATO allies recoiled. Economically, debt soared, the petrodollar eroded, and dedollarisation accelerated.
Trump’s humiliation was not confined to the battlefield. His foul language, contradictory statements, and televised denials revealed the psychological toll of Iran’s defiance. The empire’s roar faded into silence, leaving only the spectacle of collapse.
