Professor John Mearsheimer:
Iran holds almost all the cards. They are in a very powerful position.
By closing Hormuz, they can tank the global economy. The leverage is enormous.
They can destroy GCC countries as functioning societies. They can wreck those countries.
Trump can’t climb the escalation ladder. On every rung, Iran can beat him.

Tucker Carlson Network responds to Trump:
Trump is under a level of pressure that most people cannot fathom, with rabid Israel Firsters viciously harassing him any time he dares to stray even slightly from their favorite country’s agenda.
Their shameless pursuit is steadfast enough to make even a man like Donald Trump go mad. They are as persistent as any group in history, no matter how well the White House has treated them in the past.
Trump is facing a level of pressure that is dark enough to make him abandon his campaign promises and morph into the precise kind of politician he once vowed to destroy.
He would not have let that happen unless his personal stakes were really high.

🔴مدير مركز مكافحة الإرهاب المستقيل جو كينيت ( حول نية الولايات المتحدة الانسحاب من الناتو )
للأسف، لن يكون انسحابنا من الناتو لتجنب التورط في صراعات خارجية،
بل لننضم إلى إسرائيل عندما تتصادم تركيا وإسرائيل في سوريا.
يأتي هذا بعد أن ساهمنا في إسقاط الحكومة السورية العلمانية ونصبنا زعيماً سابقاً لتنظيم القاعدة داعش رئيساً للبلاد.
حان الوقت للتوقف عن لعب دور المتسبب بالمشاكل والمنقذ في الشرق الأوسط،
فالأمر لا يستحق كل هذا العناء .
