Will the Iran War be our Suez Canal Crisis

It costs us a million to shoot down a 10k drone, and we need to be right 100% of the time, Iran just needs to be right once. We acted without talking to our Allys and now they're not getting involved/blocking US usage of their Airspace. The US home front isn't looking too hot either with the government BS at a $39tn national debt, rising $1tn every 5 months, and the cracks of AI forming and a bailout in PC looking like a real possibility. And we don't even know what winning in Iran would look like so no chance its a 2 week conflict, but we can't really leave either. We're not Post WW2 Britain but I cannot imagine we leave in a better spot we started, and I think it'll be a hard loss at that. What would this do to Americas perceived dominance in both geopolitics and in capital markers perception?

what dominance lol - china has long overtaken the US. It's not even a competition anymore - look at the clowns running this country 😂 and spineless cowards that won't oppose them either
