What happened before Gulf War 1? Gulf War 2? Libya? Justification. An argument for invasion. Trump is moving fast. No snap huddle. NK dismantling quick. Trump and Bibi tight. Bibi's 'Cuban/UN' presentation yesterday was clear... Bibi's evidence (Irans secret nuclear weapon archive), probably breaks the Iran deal . ANd then what?
Iran's sources of cash, mainly from oil sales. are in free-fall right now. Soon its going to difficult for them to sell oil to anyone. Perhaps out of desperation they will misjudge Donald Trump and attempt to mine or otherwise block shipping in the Straights of Hormuz in an attempt to disrupt Gulf oil shipments. When Obama was faced with these attacks he allowed our sailors to be captured and humiliated. Somehow I think a Trumpian response would be somewhat different. Bolton would like regime change but I don't think the Iranian people have the stomach for it. They seem to prefer to be led around like sheep by wolves in black robes while Persian culture continues its retrograde decline. Screw them.
