The essence of Trumpism is Trump, whatever he says and does. If he says regime change is good, it is good. When he says it is not good, it is not, as simple as that.

Would like to be on the list, thanks!

13- Biden was faced with a more urgent situation in #Ukraine to ease his grip on Iran during his term in office and if now, tensions in East Asia rise, Trump will do the same. [...]

12- To sum up, like many other situations, when it comes to #national_security, Dems and Reps move much closer to each other. The differences only exist because of different circumstances. [...]

11- Now, Petraeus says Israel did a great job of penetrating Iran’s air and ballistic missile defenses twice last year and the war will be promising for the US. Such estimation is like his greenlight for the Republican hardliners to go ahead with their plan of attack. [...]

10- the command and control, the jammers, the munitions, etc. They even thought about the food, fuel, and water. One can see how serious it was during Obama’s presidency!
One other similarity is his reliance on #Israel. Normally there is suspicion among Dems on Israel’s warmongering efforts. [...]

9- just two years after he promised in his electoral campaign to bring change and end the wars in the #Middle_East. And it was not just a plan on paper. They rehearsed their plan of attack with all the details like planes flying all the distances, the refuelers, [...]

8- Still, perhaps, the most important part of his interview was when he said “he actually developed the plan to destroy Iran's nuclear program over 15 years ago when he was the commander of the #US_Central_Command.” 15 years ago, it was Obama’s first term, [...]

7- while Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard believes that “ Iran is not currently building a nuclear weapon.” (www.newsweek.com/tulsi-gabbar...) Her assessment is placatory to the anti-war Dems, while his assessment is giving heads up in Washington. [...]

6- Neither of them is naïve. Iranians are not going to fall into a simple tramp and Trump is not fool enough to think so. Petraeus is saying that war is just behind the door. Third, he believes that Iran is close to building a nuclear weapon and remains “just one turn of the enrichment process”[...]

5- Second, Petraeus estimates that the US’s recent deployment of bombers to the strategic Indian Ocean airbase is not just an empty bluff; it is a real preparation for war. There might have been some optimism that this deployment of forces is a cheap shot to deter naïve officials in Tehran. [...]

4- Petraeus agrees with that conclusion too and believes that Iran will more likely retaliate, but then he concludes that the #US must not stop but go further to target Iran’s capabilities to retaliate. To those who think #Trump is too hawkish, this would catch them napping. [...]
