Headline:
Some Only Understand Fear + Power.

***********************

Despite Significant Military Advantages + Other Critical Leverages…

Trump = Currently Balking At Advancing The Theater Of War Against Iran =

The Pre-Eminent State Sponsor Of Terror For The Past 45+ Years.

***********************

The Simplistic Argument Against…

A Complete Annihilation Of Iran + Its Infrastructure Seems To Be =

The Governing Leadership Of Iran = Bad People…

While The Citizens Of Iran = “Good” People.

So Why Punish The “Good” Citizens Of Iran…By Universally Destroying Their Infrastructure…

For The Actions Committed By The Bad People?

***********************

However…Whether Iran’s Citizens = “Good” People

…Is Actually Quite Debate-able…

Since For 45+ Years They’ve Enabled Their Government To…

1. Construct +
2. Facilitate +
3. Fund +
4. Prosecute

…The Globe’s Largest Terrorist Network = Hamas + Hezbollah Et Cetera…

And What Is A Nation…If Not Its People?

***********************

Furthermore…Iran’s Responses To U.S. Attacks  =

Page One/Chapter One Of Its Confrontational Playbook =

To TERRORIZE =

1. Regional Sovereign Neighbors = Missile Bombardments +
2. Global Economic Activity = Sharply Higher Chemical/Oil Prices = Maritime Block Of Hormuz.

***********************

Therefore…How To Effectively Navigate A Terrorist Nation That Wishes “Death To America?”

Unfortunately…For Multiple Reasons…

Coincident/Subsequent To The Shah’s Overthrow + U.S. Hostage Turmoil In 1979…

American Diplomacy With Iran = 100% Waste Of Time.

As Bilaterally…None Of The Following Currently Exist =

1. Respect +
2. Trust +
3. Values

…And Are Not Changing Anytime Soon.

***********************

However…At Least One Upside To Inevitable U.S./Iran Diplomatic Failures =

World Financial Markets Will Not Be Subjected To Trump’s Tiresome “Boy Who Cried Wolf” Social Media Chatter =

1. Diplomatic Talks “Going Well” +
2. Iranian Cooperation/Support To Remove Nuclear Dust/Sea Mines +
3. “Very Soon” Statements Vis-A-Vis Hormuz Open + War Ending

…That Have Amounted To Nothing More Than A Huge Pile Of Stinking Dog-Pinch.

***********************

So…A Different Catalyst = Required To Conclude This Conflict.

Thus…3 Remaining U.S. Options =

1. To Bail + Declare Mission Accomplished
2. Patience = Heightened Economic Embargo

However Neither #1 Nor #2 =

Short Term Hormuz Re-Opening = Unsustainable For Global Economy…

Which Leads To…

3. Destroy Iran’s Entire Productive Resource Base + Supportive Infrastructure Including =

i. Airports/Bridges/Railways +
ii. Desalination Plants +
iii. Kharg Island Oil Facilities +
iv. Oil Pipelines/Production +
v. Power Grids

…Intended To Suddenly + Sustainably Paralyze Iran’s Government + People…

While Also…

1. Emasculating Iran’s Regionally Destabilizing Influence +
2. Resuming Hormuz Oil Flow

***********************

Maybe/Eventually Trump Will Execute These Brutal But Necessary Strikes On Terrorist State Iran That…

ONLY UNDERSTANDS FEAR + POWER…
