How USA is Preparing for Ground Invasion in Iran

Amid sustained United States and Israeli airstrikes against Iran, the administration is actively engaging Iranian Kurdish opposition groups to open a new ground front. Reports indicate Washington has asked Iraqi Kurdish leaders to facilitate the movement of these dissident factions across the border into western Iran. The strategy aims to stretch the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps thin and spark a broader internal uprising against the weakened Iranian regime. While the White House has acknowledged communications with Kurdish leaders regarding American bases in northern Iraq, officials have publicly downplayed direct plans to arm these groups. Nevertheless, thousands of battle-hardened Kurdish fighters from newly unified coalitions are reportedly massing near the border on standby. By offering potential air cover for these cross-border incursions, the United States hopes to leverage local proxy forces to achieve regime collapse without committing American ground troops.
