Trump is an out and out fruit loop trying to force Iran into a position where they give away their ability to defend themselves!

Not that they, the Iranian regime are squeaky clean and have no innocent blood on their hands! But rather a nation that sponsors terror and terrorist attacks, imprisons the innocent without just cause and acts exactly like the servants of Satan would!?

Hiding behind a veil of bogus religious conviction as they weave their wickedness/human rights abuses!? And somehow trying to justify it with the unjustifiable!?

A patently corrupt and land stealing Netanyahu assists with his own version of sabre-rattling BS!

This will not end well but possibly in a huge mushroom-shaped cloud over Tehran?

Followed by a huge non-mushroom shapedcloud over Jerusalem.

Threatening to unleash the nuclear option on Iran, but never doing it or even hitting it where it hurt with a few cruise missiles, is a mistake!

If you say there will be consequences for certain outcomes and those consequences are just left there sitting on the table! Nothing of any enduring consequence is resolved!

President Trump has proved to be a weak, undecisive vacillator, as a negotiator!

Who thinks all he need do is thunder and roar about his military might, even as that military might is eroded and made into a former shadow of itself as its (Manning + co.) personal are scrapped from the very bottom of the socio-economic barrel and dregs of society!?

And join out of economic necessity, or the compulsion of a hidden agenda, not the patriotism that flashed instantly into being with the cowardly attack on Pearl harbour or the twin towers!

The world of today needs to see some mushroom-shaped clouds somewhere before these weapons have to be disassembled and their nuclear warheads burned in MSR to both generate cheap clean power and reduce these materials to the status of non-fissionable! Before the world decides that these unthinkable weapons of mass destruction have to be destroyed!

If the trigger is never ever pulled? The gun protects nobody!

And if pulling the trigger is unthinkable!?

Why own a gun or any other weapon! Let alone enough nuclear weapons to destroy the entire world three or four times over, when some nut job thinks that a preemptive strike won't also rain down on him or her!

Better they be disassembled and all the weapons-grade plutonium be burned creating cheap reliable dispatch power for the next dozen or so centuries and with that sanity, allow the world to progressively decarbonise as we turn our deserts into veritable gardens of Eden!

That's the promise and possibility of the application of sanity in this space!

There will be no war, it's just rhetoric, a part of negotiation.

Alan you must remember that they believe even if they are nuked
out of existence they win !
It means that they are victorious and are instantly in Paradise.

That is why MAD has no meaning to them.
