The proxies are already fighting. The question is no longer whether the United States, Israel, and Iran are at war - it is whether anyone is prepared to win one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWinning the Unwinnable\u003c\/i\u003e is the book that defense ministries won't write and politicians won't say out loud. Drawing on open-source military doctrine, historical precedent, and decades of strategic analysis, Robert F. Geissler examines what total war between Iran and the US-Israel coalition would actually look like - and what each side would have to do to prevail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIran cannot match American firepower. But it doesn't have to. Its ballistic missiles, drone swarms, and proxy network stretching from Lebanon to Yemen are designed to make victory too costly to sustain. The Strait of Hormuz sits like a knife at the throat of the global economy. And somewhere beneath all of it, a nuclear program inches toward the threshold that changes everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe United States and Israel hold overwhelming conventional advantages. But overwhelming force has not produced durable peace in the Middle East in living memory. Every military victory has been followed by an aftermath more dangerous than the war itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book examines both sides without illusion. It maps the escalation ladders, the chokepoints, the proxy multipliers, and the diplomatic escape hatches.
