@angelo_roberto9@AynReagan Based on shared history the only suitable candidate is India. But India is not currently ready to become and act like a superpower.
This is my take on the current state of the Iran war. The deal we've all been waiting for is already negotiated. Trump sent it out a couple of weeks ago but had to walk it back given how bad it is. However that deal will not change and he will put it forward again when he feels he has a little more credit with the senators that matter. The truth is that Trump has lost the will to fight the war. He will not reengage in kinetic action no matter the circumstances and the blockade is not even close to enough pressure to subjugate the Iranians. The mere idea that the government of Iran, made up entirely of religious fanatics, would suddenly quit based on an oil blockade is ludicrous. This picture also explains this week's anti-israel leaks. What better way to push for a bad deal with Iran than to blame Israel?
I think you should reevaluate your analysis and look at it from another point of view. The deal is already negotiated, Trump sent out feelers a couple of weeks ago but had to withdraw it given the opposition. However that deal will not change and he will put it forward again when he feels he has a little more credit. Trump has lost the war. He will not reengage in kinetic action no matter the circumstances and the blockade is not even close to enough pressure to subjugate the Iranians.
Your buddy Trump, who you really know to be a complete moron, has managed to lose the Iran war. Right now he's managing the defeat and hoping it doesn't hurt him too much in the mid terms. He tried to sell us a disastrous deal a couple of weeks ago but had to walk back given the opposition. He will try again in a couple more weeks.
@DrNeilStone You know what he's doing? He's managing defeat. He knows he lost the Iran war and he's preparing the electorate hoping it doesn't hurt him too much in the mid terms.
@AynReagan The world is changing. Who knows what it will look like in 10 years. Maybe a new superpower will arise that is more comfortable with Israel.
@AynReagan I don't think it will happen. The next decade will be mostly about managing an uncomfortable decline in the relationship. Especially now that Trumpo has snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory with Iran.
@GOPIsrael That's ridiculous. If true it truly show the United States living in an alternate reality. The Lebanese army does NOT want to confront Hezbollah.
