If you believe the nonsense reasons for the war. They struggled to provide any strategic goals for the war when they started.
The most plausible explanation to me is that Netanyahu managed to lure Trump into the war with the premise that if they kill the Ayatollah, they'll get an easy win.
- statguy 6mo agoExactly, Trump was high on the Venezuala “win” and Netanyahu managed to suck him into this war with disastrous consequences for US and the world.
- bulbar 6mo agoExactly. People vastly overestimate the intelligence of decision makers.
- nradov 6mo agoI'm not stating that I believe the official statements about reasons for the war, just that a naval blockade wouldn't have been effective in achieving them.
- pazimzadeh 6mo agoI'm saying to begin with the naval blockade instead of ending with it. Not saying that blockade alone is sufficient. Why would you start by creating a martyr out of a crippled 86-year old leader of a martyr religion but letting them keep selling their oil?
