But so is the relationship between America and Israel. Iran probably sees that as a victory on its own. A flawed war plan that predicted a swift victory now pits Trump’s short attention span and aversion to accountability against Netanyahu’s continuing quest to topple Iran’s regime and desperation to hold sway over voters ahead of the next Israeli election. To gauge the impact of the war on that … Read more
