The conflict is not a simple case of US aggression, but rather a complex web of historical, cultural, and economic factors. The escalation of the conflict highlights the need for a more inclusive and equitable international relations framework, one that promotes indigenous knowledge and perspectives and acknowledges the agency and experiences of non-Western nations. In this context, the conflict can be seen as a manifestation of the ongoing struggle between Western and non-Western powers for influence and control in the Middle East. The solution to the conflict lies in regional diplomacy and conflict resolution efforts, decolonizing international relations, and promoting economic cooperation and development.
