Good morning, I want to talk to you about the war in Iran and how it is likely going to end. I think that people who predict that the United States is going to bomb the hell out of Iran because Trump’s going to do something, they are not learning the lessons of the Trump administration and how they deal with things. So, President Trump does not want to get us directly and personally embroiled in a lengthy conflict and I know that he stated to the press that he thinks it was the right thing to intervene, but it’s the protracted nature of this that has posed a political problem.
I also think that the Democrats are in a situation where they need to regain legitimacy. What they are seeing is voters crossing over away from the Democratic Party because of the perceived increasing extremism of the party. In fact, I was at a gathering of a pretty, I won’t say where I was, a pretty leftist-leaning group, not progressive-radical, but somewhat progressive and everyone was introducing themselves and someone said that they had come from a previous similar group, but they were becoming too woke and she wasn’t comfortable with that group.
This is a congregational group. So, I’m hearing this not just in one corner of the world or on social media, but I’ve heard this repetitively and I’ve heard people repetitively say that they’re being kind of shunned, ostracized for expressing anything remotely agreeing with President Trump. So, I think the Democrats are taking note of this and in fact, Abdul Al-Sayed, who just won the Senate seat in Michigan, was directly asked about Iran and he said that it’s a bad regime, but we shouldn’t be over there and he also repudiated the Muslim Brotherhood publicly.
So, I think what we’re going to see happen because Democrat and Republican are in the end one establishment and we definitely must have spies over there, right? Israel has spies over there. Everyone must have spies there in Iran. I think there’s going to be waiting for the opportune moment for the people to overthrow the regime and to claim victory in that way.
