The first act of WW3 ?

RE: The first act of WW3 ?
Observations re Sulemani and all the wailing....

I’m fairly sanguine about the prospects. Trump seems to be on the right track and is getting decent advice from somewhere.

The Persians are complicated and smart. Their national myth goes back to Darius and the Great Persian Empire. Crafty folks with a good sense of timing. They know better than to start a stand up gun fight after their bitter experience fighting Saddam in the 80s.

Best option for the US is containment. No need for further punitive measures like economic sanctions or anything like that. Just dust off the NSC 68 and update it for current economic flows and security interests. The guys who won WW2 weren’t stupid. No need to reinvent the wheel.

We can and should engage in old school tradecraft vspy vs spy and targeted killing of Persian terrorists and sleeper agents.
It keeps their attention, makes the consequences very real, and is loads of fun for the young warriors carrying the spear.

Today’s rocket attack in IZ and yesterday’s on al Asad are little cause for concern. As always, watch the other hand. These events were obviously a baited ambush to goad POTUS into making a rash mistake. Trump passed the test.

Stand by for Act 3. Will it be a drama, a comedy or a trajedy?
