The prolonged conflict in the Middle East is forcing US President Donald Trump to act increasingly aggressively, yet his actions fail to yield desired results. Despite US efforts to change the regime in Iran, the conflict has led to war in the region, including intensified Iranian attacks on the Gulf states.
