The US and its allies have few cards left to play against Iran.
If the US really wants to secure its influence in the strategic Middle East in a multipolar world—which would open the door to limiting Russian and Chinese power—it would need to overthrow the Iranian government.
However, to do that would require a full-scale ground invasion. Air power alone is not going to remove the Iranian government. It couldn’t even dislodge the much smaller and poorer Houthis from Yemen.
