Questions such as how long the conflict may last, how American society views the war, the significant financial resources Washington allocates to military operations, as well as Iran\u2019s military potential and the possibility of the conflict expanding geographically are widely discussed.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on a program broadcast on ARB24 television, political commentator Ahmad Shahidov said that public opinion in the United States regarding the war with Iran is not unanimous and that serious debates are taking place around the issue: \u201cOne group within American society considers this war necessary in order to weaken Iran\u2019s military and nuclear potential. Another group believes that a prolonged war could bring serious financial and political consequences for the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Public opinion in the United States is divided over the Iran war \u2013 Ahmad Shahidov told ARB24 TelevisionAhmad Shahidov also noted that there are currently no real negotiations on stopping the military operations and that the sides appear determined to continue the confrontation: \u201cThe fact that nearly one billion dollars from the U.S. state budget is spent on this war every day is already causing serious debate in American society. At the same time, the Iranian leadership has stated that it is ready to continue the war until the end. This raises important questions about how long Iran\u2019s missile arsenal can sustain the conflict and whether the geography of the war may expand further.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19226\" src=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-475x267.jpg 475w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19227\" src=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-475x267.jpg 475w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026a.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19228\" src=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-475x267.jpg 475w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026b.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19229\" src=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-475x267.jpg 475w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/shahidov.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/arb24_11.03.2026c.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ongoing war in Iran and its possible consequences are currently among the most important issues on the international agenda.
