Quote from: DGuller on March 22, 2026, 10:05:43 PMWhy are we assuming that that it's all down to Trump as to how the war with Iran will end?  Iran found some balls to squeeze, they may not relax the grip as soon as Trump decides he doesn't want to keep pummeling Iran.

Besides, Israel seems far from being done, regardless of what the US does.

Indeed...one of the demands one could easily predict Iran will make is that they won't allow any Gulf state hosting US forces to transit their resources/ships via the SoH until they evict the US.  Then those states will face the choice to either agree to those demands, or we go back to getting involved.

He could just pull out anyway and say that the US produces their own oil and doesn't need the Middle East, not understanding commodity pricing, couldn't he?
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.
