A retired U.S. Special Forces officer warns that despite devastating military strikes on Iran's nuclear and military infrastructure in 2025-2026, America risks repeating its Afghanistan mistake by failing to sustain strategic commitment after a swift victory. The systematic dismantling of Iran's proxy networks — Hamas, Hezbollah, and its missile arsenal — aligns with biblical warnings of wars and rumours of wars converging around Israel in the last days, with the nations surrounding her being progressively weakened. Scripture foretells that Israel's enemies will be brought low and that God will draw the nations into judgment, suggesting these events are part of a larger prophetic unfolding centred on the Middle East.
