I'll say the even more forbidden - having failed at everything else, Trumpenyahu is seriously considering thermonuclear genocide. Seize Kharg Island by airborne assault, and credibly threaten genocide if Iranians try to "aggressively" take it back. If he was a better salesperson, like the rival candidates he defeated, he would say its about continuity of food supply for starving African orphans. And the Western media would repeat it like a small room full of screeching parrots.

Correct

If nukes* exist. Might as well be a LARP. After doing research I am still drawn to 60% yes, but my doubts grew from 0% to 40% over the years. It's a nice thought experiment. Who gains or loses the most from the narrative. States Iran - Israel - China - US have more in common (to protect vs the plebs) than they have differences. Likewise we have more in common with our brother around the world than with said governments.
