US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

Trump and Rubio are desperate for a deal, any deal but the Iranians not playing ball.

I think the Iranian government is so concerned about its future, especially in light of the massive US military build-up, that it is even extending an olive branch by refraining from attacking Israel.

However, I believe the fanatical IRGC sees little future for itself. As a result, it appears desperate to create chaos and instability across the region in an attempt to ensure its own survival.
 
POTUS: "A year ago the United States of America attacked, very powerfully, the Houthis, for their interference with commerce and trade, by shooting at ships. Since that time, and during our conflict with Iran, they have acted very responsibly. Unfortunately, now they are starting up again, shooting at two Saudi Arabian ships last night. Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if they do this again, the U.S. will hold Iran responsible, in that the Houthis are a Surrogate and/or Proxy of Iran, and major military punishment will be inflicted upon Iran and, of course, the Houthis, themselves, who I am very disappointed with in that they have, until now, acted very professionally and smart. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

This post below by RescueRanger makes me now certain that the Americans will do a land invasion of Iran, whether that is an island, or some kurdish incursion I don't know.

They are making one final large roll of the dice to try and turn the tide in their favour for "better terms". I suspect it is Kharg Island given its economic value to Iran and those around the Straits.



I personally think that even if the USA is successful, they will not be able to hold onto them very long, and knowing the Iranians, it wont make a difference in them "relenting" or "bending" the knee to the USA ( imho ! ). The American calculus and logic does not work in the Iran scenario, they simply do not understand the Iranian people at all.
 
This phase-2 of war is all about SOH control. The strait which was even not in Iran's control before the war.

Iran is stubborn and is willing to take heavy punishment but not willing to give up SOH control. Previous Iranian leadership was much lenient in this regard.

Trump should offer Iran mutual control of SOH lol. Both keeps share from tolls. Trump would love it. If Iran agrees to that then that would be hilarious. gcc countries would say WTH?
