People are scared of making predictions, but I'll say it.
Trump doesn't want regime change in Iran, and he simply doesn't have the stomach for a protracted conflict.
According to Steve Witkoff, Trump exclaimed, "I don't understand why they haven't capitulated yet."
And here's the main issue: Trump just likes everything quick. Bombing the regime until it falls would take weeks, if not months.
While the regime doesn't really have strong cards to play, they know this: there won't be a ground invasion of any kind, and we all know the chances of the regime falling from an air campaign alone are low.
And let's be honest, what's the plan? Arming protesters while the regime is being bombed? Are the protesters supposed to topple the regime with rifles against tanks?It might work, but the chances are pretty slim.
The bottom line is that the regime is willing to endure a bombing campaign rather than agree to Trump's terms, and they also know that time is on their side.
Just to be clear, of course I support a bombing campaign—it will significantly weaken the regime, and even a small chance of it falling is worth it.
As much as I support Trump, the fact remains that playing the long game is not his thing. I just hope he won't stop the Israelis from finishing the job.
I sold barren land for a profit.
Then someone developed homes on that land and massively increased its value.
I have seller's remorse.
I am the victim and I have a right to massacre everyone who lives on that land and steal it.
My name is Palestine.

Akhlaqi Amiri, Iranian MP: The statements of a person who changes his position 3 times a day should not be taken into account. Such statements are mostly due to desperation. Remember how the enemy was forced to accept a unilateral ceasefire in a state of desperation? - Mehr
AI is trained on data that humans have deliberately chosen to express, preserve, or teach. But this curated data represents only a fraction of the human experience.
The “Palestinian-Israeli Conflict” is actually quite simple in its essence: The Jews want a state, the Palestine Arabs want above all that the Jews will not have a state.
The rest is details.
Trump is like that loud friend who insists on coming with you on a dangerous trip.
He talks tough and pushes you to move fast but once you’re deep in it, he gets overwhelmed, changes direction, and leaves you exposed.
