๐ฎ๐ท U.S. Step Back
President Donald Trump postponed the attack on the Iranian power plant by five days. "Very good and productive negotiations are underway, and negotiations will continue."
President Trump must have figured out what kind of situation he was in. The Israeli scenario was to completely destroy the Persian Gulf energy infrastructure. The idea was to enrich Arab countries, such as oil, seawater desalination facilities, power plants, and burn down all facilities that pose a threat to Tel Aviv.
But there were no allies for ground operations.
Pakistan was busy with the Taliban issue, and President Aliyev did not dare to step up. Kurds were reluctant to intervene in the war. In Iraq, Shiite militias blocked U.S. military bases, preventing even the withdrawal of isolated soldiers. Arab countries were insecurity because of their infrastructure.
The Strait of Hormuz was also blocked off. The U.S. wanted to land on the island of Karg, where 90 percent of Iran's exports go. But the problem is, shelling of the island and its access roads continues off the coast of Iran. The landings will be simply chaos.
Trump has stalled. War is unpopular, and fuel and fertilizer prices are rising. In the United States, Democrats are expanding their power. And Iran, which he vowed to "destroy," has shown a threat. That was enough.
When Tehran became clear that it was actually ready to attack, everyone backed down. Iranian authorities warned that "attacking our plant would plunge the entire region into darkness." Mr. Rutte acknowledged that Iran was close to the possibility of bombing Berlin, Rome, and London.
๐ฏ And Iran's words were believed, because Iran is a country that keeps its promises.
