Trump’s march of folly in Iran
TORONTO – America has capitulated to Iran. The “memorandum of understanding” signed by the two sides specifies terms that spell victory for the Islamic Republic and humiliation for President Donald Trump and the United States.
War, as some people apparently needed to learn, is not about the pleasure one takes in watching things blow up. It is politics by other means. And as Iran has just demonstrated, winning means changing the enemy’s politics so that they are forced to surrender.
From the beginning, the unprovoked U.S.-Israeli war on Iran put Trump’s incompetence on display for all to see. Instead of trying to understand how the Iranian leadership thinks and operates, Trump, U.S. Secretary of “War” Pete Hegseth and other U.S. officials treated them as stooges who would immediately submit as soon as the bombs started falling.
