The author should stick to what he knows.

Dr. Alon Ben-Meir is a professor of international relations at the Center for Global Affairs at NYU. He teaches courses on international negotiation and Middle Eastern studies.

His discipline is totally useless against Muslim maniacs. And, that's why President Trump is doing what he has to do.

A person so useless who criticises Trump after only a few weeks of warfare is extremely bumptious.

Andrew Hastie, the great white hope of the Liberal Party (very briefly and before he voted with the other drones for Labor's hate speech laws against everyone but the real, unmentioned problem, Muslim radicals), is also against Trump who, he bleats, should have consulted “us” before he ripped into Iran.

“Us” being Australia and other Western countries, presumably. Why on earth would Trump consult countries who don't want to be involved in their own security: against the very country that sponsors terrorism in their countries.

Hastie carried on about being “pro-America”; fought alongside Americans; his marriage to an American; his father was saved by an American medic, blah, blah, blah.

But, Trump should have consulted the pissweak countries who have done nothing to deserve such a courtesy!

It's going to be a very long time before the Liberal Party forms a government again, even though we have the most incompetent leftist Labor government in history.
