diagnosis
He argues that after 9/11 the United States destroyed multiple Middle Eastern states for no good reason, revealing itself as a bully rather than a guarantor of order.

diagnosis
Jiang says Iranians understand that American intervention would not liberate them but break Iran into ethnic enclaves, as he says happened elsewhere in the region.
model
Jiang argues that America’s actual pattern in Libya, Syria, and Iraq was not democratic transition but state collapse, loss of basic services, and prolonged civil war.
diagnosis
Jiang says empires attack weaker countries such as Libya and Syria in part to preserve the perception of military hegemony by publicly bullying smaller states.
