U.S. leveraging military pressure and diplomatic channels simultaneously to constrain Iran while maintaining Israel alliance. Iran engaging indirect diplomacy through Oman as intermediary, suggesting willingness to negotiate but maintaining public distance. Israel positioned as observer rather than active participant, potentially preserving strategic flexibility. Regional powers (Jordan, Oman) gaining diplomatic relevance as mediators.
Similar to 2019 Iran tensions under Trump's first term: military posturing paired with selective diplomacy, regional proxy tensions, and use of intermediaries (then Switzerland/Japan, now Oman) for backchannel negotiations.

Volatile oil prices create uncertainty for consumers; potential energy cost increases if Strait of Hormuz disrupted; airline ticket prices may rise due to increased insurance and fuel costs; general inflation pressure if regional conflict escalates.
US may implement strategic petroleum reserve releases to stabilize oil prices; potential sanctions escalation or de-escalation depending on diplomacy outcomes; increased defense spending; possible maritime security regulations; coordination with allies on energy security alternatives.
