This is sheer stupidity, the deal was very good for the US. This will not benefit the US and could cause further problems later on. trump is a complete moron.
Iran can't really do much against Israeli air power and missile strikes. Israel can't really take any territory against Iran with ground troops without suffering heavy losses. Neither side wants a direct confrontation. Each side will defend their homeland with zeal. Make no mistake, a conventional war between Iran and Israel will be long, bloody, and costly. The best hope for peace is the JCPOA which gave moderates in Iran a foothold to gain influence. Trump pulling out of the deal was cheered on by hardliners in both the US and in Iran. They are cheering for war. Let's hope China and Europe can somehow salvage this situation.
There will not be a direct way between Iran and Israel. At most they will continue to hold a proxy war through Syria, and occasionally do tactical strikes and use guerrilla warfare tactics against each other. Israel's goal is going to probably be to try antagonize the situation enough to get America to invade. They will play on Trump's hubris and appeal to his simplistic view of the world, an obvious strategy that it seems Trump is dumb enough to fall for.
I'm actually kind of surprised. It doesn't look like the Europeans are going to roll over on the economic sanctions and will force the US to decide if they want to sanction European companies.
Yep. I'm not optimistic about Trump having the good judgement to keep America from being drawn into yet another Middle Eastern conflict.
United States VS the World. That's going to end well...
