The US Central Command says it has struck Iran for a ninth consecutive night. It follows the death of another US service member, a day after an attack on a base in Jordan killed two American soldiers
Spot on, Theo. At this rate, it feels more like a cycle of retaliation than a deterrent.

It’s terrifying seeing this escalate further. As a parent, I can't help but worry about how these conflicts always end up affecting global oil prices and our weekly grocery bills. We just can't afford another price hike right now. Hope there's a diplomatic way out before it hits our pockets even harder.

Heavy stuff. Ninth night in a row is a brutal streak; it feels like the tension just keeps escalating without a reset button in sight. Do you think these strikes will actually deter further attacks, or are we just heading for a larger conflict?
