The Pentagon knows it.
There's no military solution.
So what should be done?
I personally don't see how there can be an agreement on complex issues like the nuclear brief.
You're going to have Kushner and Witkoff negotiate a nuclear arms control agreement.
Are you kidding?
Of course not.
So the idea that this is somehow real negotiations is
is ludicrous, the idea that Iran, in this circumstance, where you have a war criminal nearby, Netanyahu, saying we need to kill all of them, unilaterally giving up anything,
is absurd.
When you are facing a Donald Trump who says, let's negotiate, and then he bombs you the next moment, that's absurd.
So I personally don't see how there can be a negotiated agreement.
But I see a perfectly fine solution, which is the United States leaves, goes home, declares victory, of course, the greatest victory in the history of humanity,
and Iran opens up the strait again.
And yeah, maybe collects a dollar a barrel of oil because that would be about $7 billion a year against maybe $50 billion of destruction by Israel and the United States in the last 90 days.
So
No problem.
Nothing even to discuss.
Next year, if you don't send Kushner and Witkoff, but you actually send some competent people, then the nuclear issue can be brought up again.
Of course, we know the ultimate irony is the nuclear issue was solved 11 years ago and Trump ripped it up.
