WorldWill the US war on Iran become a forever war?

The United States has carried out attacks for 13 consecutive nights, hitting Iranian civilian infrastructure such as bridges, airports, electrical facilities and a desalination plant. Iran has retaliated by targeting US allies in the Gulf and striking civilian infrastructure there. US President Donald Trump has threatened to intensify the attacks, raising the risk of broader Iranian retaliation and an all-out war. The programme examines how the history between the two countries has shaped the conflict now unfolding.
