As an admirer of Donald Trump, I have to say that I am disappointed in his Iran adventure, and his decision to break the rule of never negotiating with terrorists: a decision that has cost him victory.

The mad mullahs, still able to fight back, don't care about the damage to their country - as long as they control it.

Israel will not be “diminished”. Trump should hand Iran over to Israel to deal with. It's their enemy, and they would be better at the job than the U.S has been.

Things might not be so great for Iran.

I'm at a loss to understand Iran's bargaining power when it's oil export infrastructure could be destroyed in minutes at a time of Trump's choosing. What people don't understand is that Trump's "failure" is more a choice not to cripple Iran's oil exports.
