So what's Iran's goals? what can they realistically win? - Lemmygrad

They definitely can defeat US intervention and cause a lot of damage to their position in the middle east, but I keep mulling over what they can win. They can certainly force them to abandon some bases closer to them and maybe even keep a toll of some kind of the strait, but I don’t think it’s realistic to expect to force the US to abandon the middle east and even Israel. At that point they’d need to actually move troops or something to do that, which isn’t realistic. Maybe just force them to give up sanctions? And make the bomb?

You shouldn’t look at the outcome of this conflict as an end state. This is just the beginning. Whatever Iran achieves beyond what it already has, it has already shown that even a country with middling capabilities can stand up to the US. It will embolden others around the world and open up more possibilities to force the imperialists further into retreat. Whether militarily or economically. There will be other, even worse crises for the empire, and each crisis will be another step toward the final defeat of imperialism.
