Steadfast & Loyal by Allen West

Are We There Yet?

The United States launched combat operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran, marking the first direct engagement in roughly two weeks. The author contrasts this brief conflict with a 47‑year history of Iranian aggression and U.S. involvement in the Middle East. He criticizes past strategies that focused on occupying territory and the vague "Global War on Terror" label, arguing they failed to target the underlying ideology. The piece calls for a shift toward an enemy‑oriented approach that confronts Iran’s theocratic ambitions directly.
