Re: Israel v Iran conflict
So I told you a Trump betrayal was on the cards. This was the US' most justifiable type of intervention, anything else will be harder.
Next, it depends if Iran will escalate in retaliation and if Netanyahu wants to push harder or if Iran will drop it and lick wounds. |
Re: Israel v Iran conflict
A big part of MAGA and Trump's support was anti-interventionist and anti-war. The Democrats were warmongers, and he was the candidate of peace. It was the excuse some former Democrats, such as Tulsi Gabbard, gave for switching sides.
Gabbard now says Iran would produce a nuclear weapon in weeks after previously saying, in March, they were nowhere near a bomb. So she has flipped. It's going to be interesting to see who sticks with him and who doesn't now. To be fair, I have seen some of them flip and condemn Trump. There are many now though who suddenly think the US should intervene. |
Re: Israel v Iran conflict
confirmed my suspicion that Trump is insane, so much for no more wars ,he has quite possibly lit the blue touch paper on a shit storm.

But they absolutely will not accept deployment of troops. So as long as he sticks to fighting this from 35,000 feet, I think he’ll be fine. |

Incisive analysis as always from the BBC’s Frank Gardner.

Re: Israel v Iran conflict
I'm leaning towards Iran will fire some things back and then this will be used to cap the issue. Just need to see what Netanyahu does.

It’s certainly true that Trump has betrayed his MAGA base though, and it probably oughtn’t be such a surprise. Trump is a malignant narcissist and ultimately he’s powerless in the face of anything that causes him narcissistic injury. Netanyahu has looked strong and decisive on Iran, and in Trump’s low-brow world view, someone else being strong makes Trump look weak. And he can’t handle that. Hence he immediately started associating himself with what Israel was doing in Iran and talking about what ‘we’ are doing when in reality, until now, US involvement has almost certainly gone no further than a minimal-to-modest contribution to anti-air defence. |

Re: Israel v Iran conflict
Looks like Putin's orange poodle has slipped the leash and Netanyahu has adopted him.
You'd almost be mistaken for thinking that Israel was the World Power here and not the USA! |
