Stabilization with terrorists. The on again off again closing of the strait is not stabilizing. At this point, I’m not confident that the MoU adequately addresses missiles and nukes. Many Iranians are still oppressed by a harsh regime.
This is the stuff I’m talking about. Not much has changed. Previous Message
I'm glad that you are confident that there is no chance that normalizing regional relationships will have a positive effect on Iran.
I am not claiming that I'm a Middle East expert. With your confidence, perhaps you are.
I merely said I could see a path that could have a positive outcome. Previous Message

is coming from other countries in the region. These countries should essentially become a bridge to normalize relations in the region. They will have a vested interest based on their funding of a rebuilt Iran, and their partnerships with the US.
Anyone that claims they know what is happening behind the scenes is likely full of sh*t, but I can see a path where this stabilizes relationships.
I wasn't a fan of starting a "war" with Iran, just from a funding standpoint, I also don't love taking out foreign leaders as it set a bad precedent. If the end result removes funding for terrorists, prevents Iran from gaining nukes, and stabilizes relationships in the region. There is a lot of good that can come from this.
That is a big, expensive "IF."
