    Iran’s strategy seems to be to attack the gulf states indiscriminately hoping they’ll pressure the United States to stop its attack.

    If so it seems to be having the opposite effect.

    The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

        Matt asks some reasonable questions.

          The above questions make me happy Israel is closely involved. I trust them to be more focused on this in the medium and long term than Trump and his appointees.

            You can stop selling, Dugin, I already support regime change in Iran.

              The paranoia Dugin exhibits is rooted in Russia’s chronic inferiority complex. Expect more aggression from the Kremlin.

                Seems likely that whatever rushes in to fill the vacuum will be at least a little better than what was there. Obviously the new leaders will be living under a credible death threat from Israel and the USA, which I guess will motivate them to some extent.

                  And presumably you trust them to be more focused than the next Dem administration.

                    Yes, because while the next democratic administration will likely have a longer attention span, at the end of the day Israel will always have a lot more skin in the game. They can’t afford to cut bait if things get messy.

                      If you get a Kamala or a Newsom you can count on the pro-israel stance to continue, but you might be avoiding discussing what happens when an anti-Israel POTUS occurs. It's obviously realistic within the next few elections.

                      I don't see why it's unrealistic for Tucker types or Dave Smith types to vote for an economic populist anti-Zionist Democrat.

                        Still, the alternative was the status quo. I hardly think this will make things worse.
