Plan For A Multiweek Campaign In Iran

- Owen predicted a multi-week campaign and possible ground missions to secure uranium and centrifuges.
Middle East Action Tied To Global Energy And Geopolitics
- Strategic goals include stabilizing oil markets and weakening Iran's support for Russia and China to reshape global influence.
