Stating the obvious.



Those who planned this, planned today's war against Iran.


Trump is screaming at Europe that he will never defend it. Time for Europe to just accept this and move on.





Trump on the Iran war: “This is a minor excursion.”


French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle has just crossed the Strait of Gibraltar Its carrier strike group includes: - 2 French 🇫🇷 frigates - 1 Spanish 🇪🇸 frigate - 1 Dutch 🇳🇱 frigate - 1 Italian 🇮🇹 frigate as well as a French submarine and supply ships European cooperation 🇪🇺



Trump is basically calling up every journalist in his phone to workshop different timelines and goals for his war. In the past two days: @washingtonpost: the aim is "freedom for the people" of Iran @axios: maybe we can "end it in two or three days" with a deal @nytimes: might be "four to five weeks", I have "three very good choices" who might take control in Iran @abc: actually, nevermind, we killed those choices He doesn't sound convinced by any of it. He's throwing spaghetti at the wall. Ultimately I suspect he just wants to say he "solved" a problem that has vexed every American president since Jimmy Carter. But there's no clear idea what that looks like and no plan for how to get there. And there are plenty of possible scenarios in which Trump declares victory and leaves the region with an absolute mess
