Iran shot down an unmanned U.S. surveillance drone on Thursday morning in the most direct escalation of the ongoing crisis between Washington and the Islamic republic. The prospect of U.S. military conflict with the second-largest country in the Middle East has alarmed leaders and defense officials worldwide — but Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and national security adviser John Bolton may be getting just what they want.
Relations between the U.S. and Iran have steadily deteriorated since President Donald Trump pulled out of the 2015 multilateral Iranian nuclear deal that agreed to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions in exchange for economic relief. The Trump administration instead implemented a maximum pressure campaign of sanctions and aggressive military posturing, but instead of forcing Iran to capitulate to American demands, the strategy has increased the possibility of military conflict and led to Iran vowing to break its end of the nuclear pact.
