In the ancient rhythm of action and reprisal, the United States and Iran have entered a more dangerous phase of their long confrontation — one where each side's definition of proportionality becomes the engine of further violence. Strikes and counterstrikes have now spread across the Gulf and into Lebanon, drawing in regional actors and threatening to collapse diplomatic negotiations that both sides claim to want. The tragedy of this moment is not merely the destruction of radar systems and water reservoirs, but the erosion of the narrow space in which diplomacy might still breathe.
