Iran War Puts U.S. Military Under Enormous Pressure

17. September 2026

In this video, human rights lawyer and journalist Dimitri Lascaris examines new developments in the war between the United States and Iran and why military and economic pressure on Washington continues to grow. New satellite images raise questions about the true extent of the damage to a strategically important Saudi oil pipeline, while tensions around the Strait of Hormuz and global oil markets continue to intensify.

How resilient is the U.S. military after months of this war? Lascaris examines new Pentagon figures on costs, ammunition stocks and logistical problems, as well as the latest developments in Yemen. He also looks at growing protests in Syria and tensions in Bahrain – and at the broader question of whether the successes of various resistance movements could trigger a new political dynamic across West Asia.
