Key Phrases
"Planning for weeks-long ground operations signals potential shift from limited strikes to sustained kinetic activity against Iran.""Targeting or extracting enriched uranium raises WMD-sensitive issues and would likely trigger strong Iranian retaliation and international fallout.""Any U.S. ground action would greatly increase risk of proxy responses (Houthis, Hezbollah) and wider regional escalation, including attacks on shipping and bases.""Large-scale troop deployments and force posture changes already underway make such operations operationally feasible and politically consequential."
