When the Trump Administration began the Iranian conflict, you could have easily guessed it would spiral out of control. And if you did, you'd be correct. At the five-month mark, we've gone through countless strikes on both sides, worthless ceasefires, and now rising escalations with new countries (Egypt) being dragged into the destruction. All while handfuls of militant and proxy groups take aim to make their lasting mark on the conflict. We are further away than ever from the end of this war, and the impact will continue to plague not just America, but countries globally as well.
