Col Doug Macgregor argues there is no U.S. national security imperative to attack Iran and questions why the United States would be drawn further into Israel’s conflicts. They describe Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu portraying Israel as fighting a “seven-front war” since October 7—against Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, pro-Iranian militias, Assad’s regime, and even Iran itself—while crediting U.S. support, particularly under Donald Trump. Netanyahu frames these actions as necessary to counter an “axis of evil” and prevent renewed threats to Israel and America. The commentator, however, criticizes this narrative, arguing: None of these wars have been conclusively resolved. Expanding conflict to Iran would only deepen instability. The U.S. is being pressured to fight wars that primarily serve Israeli strategic goals, not American security interests. There is strong influence from pro-Israel lobbying groups such as American Israel Public Affairs Committee. Labeling critics as antisemitic shuts down legitimate debate. Regarding Gaza, Netanyahu’s stated goals—Hamas disarmament, demilitarization, “deradicalization,” and permanent Israeli security control—are interpreted by the speaker as ruling out any meaningful Palestinian state and potentially enabling further destruction while global attention is elsewhere. The discussion then shifts to the feasibility of an air and missile war with Iran. Citing arguments similar to those made by military analysts like Douglas Macgregor, the speaker suggests that leaders often overestimate the effectiveness of stand-off airpower. While planners believe precision strikes can collapse an adversary, historical evidence suggests air campaigns alone rarely achieve decisive political outcomes. The concern raised is that such a war might fail to “shatter” Iran quickly, leaving the U.S. facing escalation without a clear endgame. Overall summary: The speaker contends that expanding war with Iran would not serve U.S. interests, risks endless escalation, may be driven more by Israeli strategic ambitions than American security needs, and is based on overconfidence in airpower’s ability to produce quick, decisive results.
