Interview with a 25 year Israeli intelligence veteran focused on Iran:
In short, this war has been a catastrophic failure and has strengthened the Iranian regime. And this was due to a combination of the strong geographic position of Iran relating to global trade, and the fact that there was zero strategic planning by Trump and Hegseth. And not just a failure of US strategy, but a total collapse of Israeli policy on Iran. Iran is massively strengthened in the entire region knowing that not only can they survive direct hostilities with Israel, but direct hostilities with Israel plus the US.
Is anyone shocked that a war started and led by Trump and Hegseth is one of the biggest US blunders in history?
