HOPE IS TO BAIT IRAN INTO STARTING WAR
ISRAEL CANNOT GO TO WAR UNLESS ATTACKED
Trump made it clear that there is no desire for negotiations. He has pulled Vance out of negotiations with Iran and sent him into latrine duty in addressing crime and corruption in Democrat controlled cites. I suspect Vance may be sidelined for the rest of this administrations. He will now join the ranks of Tulsie Gabbard and Joe Kent, who opposed the lies associated with the Iran war. At least Vance cannot be fired, but the demonization is already in high gear.
Yesterday we saw a US destroyer move close the Iranian territory and was fired upon by Iran, this was followed by retaliation. It is no secret that there is debate in Iran as to whether they should wait to be attacked or act preemptively. It now is becoming clear that the US and Israeli strategy is to bait Iran into attacking Israel first.
Since Netanyahu has not been able to form a government he is an interim president, until it is decided, He cannot go to war, unless the country is attacked. The new Knesset is still in reorganization so they will not give Netanyahu any authority to go to war. His opposition also will not allow Netanyahu to use war to remain in office or to force additions into his coalition. So, at present, it appears that the war cannot resume unless Israel is attacked or Trump has to begin the war alone.
Of course things may change, but Iran has demonstrated acute understanding of both Israeli and US politics, so they may very well maintain restraint and force the other side to begin the war. While materially it could be costly, it will enhance its position diplomatically with the rest of the watching world.
