Kind of funny that the Iranian minister, is complaining that Bolton hasn’t lured Trump into war, when some kind of incident or regional conflict is what Iran is trying provoke.

The economic warfare of the United States against Iran is similar to that used by the US and allies against Japan in 1940 and 1941.

Japan chose an all out military response.

So far pretty restrained from Iran.

Another thing the USA did in 1940 and 1941 was to escort supply convoys to the UK to the mid-Atlantic where the British took over.

Hitler ordered restraint but his U-Boat’s attacked only a couple of the American ships with dead and wounded Americans in those cases.

FDR did not declare war over those incidents by the way.

Iran much more restrained than that I would say at this point.

Iran is stick poked hoping to provoke a violent response that can justify all out war IMHO time after time including the oil tanker seizure off Gibraltar on July 4th by the British Royal Marines.
