War rarely looks coherent from the outside. In this piece, I analyze the US–Israel campaign against Iran through ISW reporting, not by taking statements at face value, but by reconstructing strategy from observable action. The result: a campaign that is structured, cumulative, and adaptive, operating under real political and military constraints, not chaos. If you want to understand how strategy actually unfolds in war (and why it often looks ambiguous in real time), this is for you.
