If they are going to strike Iran, there can only be one reason. No, it is not because they want to protect Israel. I was just looking at the map and it all made sense about US actions in the last 15 years.
You all may remember during NATO summit in 2008, deep state mofos in USA openly called for inducting Georgia and Ukraine into NATO. While Ukraine was in Kremlin's hands they were not sure about Georgia. Putin made it a point to invade Georgia and send a message to NATO.

Russia after cold war long complained NATO's expansion to the East which made no sense for them other than poke trouble for Russia in the long term. Everything was going as per plan. US deep state mofos perfectly planned to oust Ukraine's President Viktor Yanukovych who was a Moscow puppet. And they struck in 2014 in the name of regime change. Putin just annexed Crimea and some eastern parts of Ukraine. When everything was going to plan, Trump came out of nowhere. Deep state mofos did not know how to handle him. If you remember during Trump's first term he repeatedly said "Can't we just get along with Russia?". Russia was basically demonized during his first term in their media. He made lot of friendly overtures to Russia which is completely absent in his second term.
They waited until Trump is gone. Biden was just a continuation of Obama. Deep state continued their antics and Putin smelled it right away and hence the Ukraine invasion. Now why am I saying all this? If you been recently looking at America's deficit it is getting out of hand. They are stretching their balance sheet way too much which has made other countries to lose confidence in US dollar. In addition to that, they are weaponizing dollar.
You invade Iran, you get access to Turkmenistan. Remember TAPI pipeline? where we were supposed to get gas from Turkmenistan transiting through Afghanistan and Pakistan. Iran borders Turkmenistan. Invade Iran, topple the regime. Just like after Iraq invasion, bring Iran into US dollar orbit. If you see the map this will trouble Russia in the long term as it will give US access to Caspian sea. They are fucking surrounding Russia slowly one country after another. Deep state this time was ready for Trump. Not a single squeak about him being a Russian agent in their media this time. All this will bolster US dollar until 2100 at the very least.
