The Legal and Strategic Dilemma of Military Bases in Global Conflicts The article analyzes the 2026 military conflict involving Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom against Iran, highlighting how it challenges established international law. It asserts that international law allows attacked states not only to respond on their own territory but also against foreign military bases participating in aggression and even against states hosting those bases. The text critiques the Security Council and UN members for failing to enforce the definition of aggression and points to historical precedents of deception by U.S. leaders in justifying military actions. It details Israel and the U.S. targeting Iranian leaders and civilians, framing these actions as illegal and barbaric under the Hague Convention. The article emphasizes that states hosting foreign military bases, including several Gulf nations, face a dilemma between upholding international law or relying on U.S. protection. The ongoing letters and negotiations at the UN illustrate the complexity of this choice. Ultimately, the piece argues that the current conflict has revealed a forgotten legal response and forces global actors to reconsider their position between legal principles and strategic alliances.
