The Cost and Chaos Game_ Iran's Asymmetric Strategies

Let's dive into the intricate world of Iran's military strategy, particularly their use of asymmetric warfare, which can be described as the "cost and chaos game." This approach is characterized by a clever mix of tactics that allow Iran to impose significant costs on its adversaries without stepping into the spotlight of a full-blown conventional war.<br />At the heart of this strategy are proxy militias—groups that Iran has carefully nurtured across the Middle East.

These proxies act as Iran’s boots on the ground, executing operations that align closely with Tehran’s strategic interests.
