The more I read and hear, the more this war seems counter-productive. They replaced an older man with a younger guy who is more interested in the nuke. Iran is cutting off oil to increase the price signficantly and the Russian sanctions have been lifted. Trump took a huge risk getting involved in this, especially after the success already with the bombing of Irans nuke sites which he could have rode for his legacy. Iran must not have a nuke but with China and Russia supporting them and the West unwilling to confront China I do not know how this could ever be seen as a quick war without serious planning.already in place. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/iran-nuclear-bomb-united-states-war-9.7147664.
Nuclear weapons experts are warning that the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, ostensibly launched to prevent the country from obtaining nuclear weapons, may have instead made an Iranian bomb more likely.
That is because prior to the war, Iran was held back not by technical constraints but diplomatic considerations, say two nuclear weapons experts who were involved in past U.S. efforts to sanction and contain the country.
Those diplomatic calculations have changed.
