So but by the end of this conflict, the question is, is the straight opening is does Israel want to go along with the ceasefire?
Apparently not.
Will Trump do it anyway?
Will Trump force it through?
And what will we have gotten out of it?
And it shouldn't have anything to do with our ceasefire.
No, so the fear is that, and I've seen people say this, they went from criticizing Trump for bombing Iran to criticizing Trump for not bombing Iran.
Bill Kristol came out, he said, this is a taco, Trump chickens out.
And so the criticism is, well, this means you can't trust what Trump says.
But I don't think that's true.
I think you can trust what Trump says if you know what he means.
And so, yes, no reasonable person thought that Trump was going to drop
multiple nuclear weapons on Iran and genocide the entire population.
So no one thinks he's going to do that.
But people do think he might do something.
And this is one of the arguments for some strikes in Iran.
Again, I'm a skeptic on the strikes.
But one of the arguments for it is Trump is a dove.
He advocates for peace.
He doesn't want to get in these quagmires.
