I don't think US is that much fool.

Having spent many years thundering about the Iranian threat, Binyamin Netanyahu has found in Donald Trump an American president willing to go all the way with him. That, at least, was the first impression https://econ.st/4rn1G6c

LOL.......this is what passes as "analysis" over at the least trusted name in news. Heavy on the "anal" part:

You would be correct.

There is no unity among the Gulf states on how to respond to the Iran war. They are paralysed because they do not trust any of the parties to this conflict—including themselves https://econ.st/4aZZo8q

The happier news is that they can't be replenished so easily because of the rare earth ban from China.

That in and of itself is an issue. If the day were ever to come where the US does not have a presence, they are doomed.

Watched back to back videos. As you know I am a big fan of Max Blumenthal and Trita Parsi but Mark Sleboda brings in Russian perspective. Some take away:
1) Per Max, America is losing on political and strategic level while winning on military level. And that Iran doesn't even have to mine the Strait of Hormuz: One or two well targeted strikes from some hidden source would be enough. Max also says the Americans want out asap but Israelis don't want that.
2) Mark's analysis is that Russia is on the ascendant and may not bite the morsels Trump is about to offer on Ukraine and oil sales. But Mark says so far that Iran's AD have been preventing a total control over its skies and once they are gone then JDAMs come, otherwise the American offensive capabilities are limited.
