I mean they did the exact same in Iraq. They convinced American leadership to start a war, and then left the Republican incumbent holding the bag. Saddam being gone or Iran not being toppled is actually inconsequential to their goal of destabilizing the region.

That's not to say that they wouldn't have preferred to win, just that they probably knew it couldn't be won proper and just didn't care. Even if they possibly underestimated the consequences for themselves (where is that Iranian rocket barrage to overwhelm and destroy their air defense btw? Any day now)

The Iraq war was different in that at least we were able to topple the regime, we also experienced a few months of calm following Bush's "Mission Accomplished" speech and although it did cost us dearly in terms of blood and treasure, the conflict was never an existential threat to America and ZOG.

With Iran we can't even make any headway inside the country, the regime seems largely intact and ultimately we'll be left with two options if we keep moving forward with this:

A) Glass the entire country with nukes

B) Restart the draft and prepared for a large scale ground invasion

Both of those options could ultimately lead to the end of ZOGAmerica.
