US imperialism as the force of global domination, imperial policy in the Middle East that focuses on encircling, destroying and dismantling Iran’s allies (Syria, Lebanon (Hezbollah), Iraq (Shi’a Militia), Qatar and Yemen with the intent of overthrowing the government and installing a client regime in Iran, the return of Iran to the status of puppet regime that will advance Washington’s ultimate goal of encircling and isolating Russia and China, the overthrow of the Islamic Republic of Iran which will facilitate Israel’s final seizure of Palestine, including Jerusalem, and establish Israel as the dominant regional power in the Middle East.
When it comes to Iran, US strategic planners rely on what James Petras calls a two-track policy characterised by combining and blending military and ideological weapons. Its military strategy relies on slicing up the Middle East by invading and conquering of each and every country and government, which shares the Islamic Republic of Iran’s policy of national sovereignty and independence.
