ESCALATION AND DESTRUCTION OF GULF COUNTRIES
TRUMP ADOPTS ISRAEL'S GOALS
Many anticipated that Trump was about to declare victory and end the Iran war. While declaring victory and repeating the litany of talking points about the justification for this war, no end is in sight. He engaged in the endless demonization of everything Iran, most either fabrications or exaggerations. He finally got to the point that was relevant, the U.S. will escalate the attacks in an effort to make Iran as desolate and uninhabitable as possible and then hope to focus on some other pressing issues in the next few weeks.
We can assume that in the next few weeks the U.S. is going to attempt to destroy the energy, water and other infrastructure of Iran and Iran will respond by destroying the same in the Gulf region. This is predictable, not a maybe, unless the gulf countries finally understand that they are also an indirect target of U.S. destruction. Are they going to stand by, and allow this to happen? or decide that their own survival is more important than a 40 year dream of Netanyahu and the vision of U.S. colonialism and world domination.
Without desalination plants the gulf countries will need to depopulate within weeks, of course, the U.S. could then step in and take control of the existing infrastructure, the U.S. could be the saviour and Iran the villain. Of course, this is all speculation, but we will see what happens, either Trump is a maniac or an evil genius.
In the meantime the war will go on, oil prices have surged overnight and the effects on the world economy are increasing by the day.
Israel is now fighting a 4 front war, they are taking significant loses of men and equipment in Lebanon, Iraqi militias are upping their attacks, the Houthis are slowly increasing their missile attacks and it is being reported that Iranian missiles are having increasing success evading defenses. It is still Israel that will probably be the first to seek an end, but can that be done, will be the question.
We can expect Israel will then threaten a nuclear option, as in the past, but it seems this conflict is no longer under the control of anyone.
