Growing warnings about Iran's potential descent into state failure have prompted urgent geopolitical reassessments. Analysts emphasize that military operations by the U.S. and Israel, aimed at toppling Iran's leadership, could spark chaos that disrupts stability for nearly 100 million people, paralleling past upheavals in Iraq. With both nations facing criticism for actions that lack clear objectives, the risk of widespread regional turmoil rises, underscoring the need for a change in strategy to avert a catastrophic humanitarian crisis.
