yes and what President Trump is doing is very, very smart. He is not going to war with them - that would give the Ayatollahs something to get the people to rally behind them.
What Trump is doing is squeezing economically but it is so apparent to the Iranians on the ground that the reason is not the USA but the stupid policies of the Ayatollahs.
Smart - very smart on President Trump’s part.
“Smart - very smart on President Trumps part.”
I have been wanting to call it the “Trump Doctrine”
Take their money.
Not only don’t we have to sacrifice our blood and treasure - we get to take their treasure! Eventually, they will be at each other’s throats.
It is essentially re-prioritizing using our economic power, over our Military power. It is just way more efficient, and arguably more effective.
