NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The comments from Mark Esper, a former US Defence Secretary, come at a time of heightened tensions between the US and Iran, with the US having recently conducted airstrikes in the region. Esper's experience in the role gives his assessment significant weight, as he would have had access to detailed military planning and intelligence during his tenure. The warning also reflects a broader debate about the effectiveness of air power in achieving strategic objectives, particularly in complex and asymmetric conflicts.
