You only need to sell the war when it is a war of choice, when you cannot convince the
Public of the need to fight a war.
by them simply just seeing the images or understanding the situation as it is, you have to do something extra.
to get them to be on board.
And thankfully, the American public is now so resistant to these wars of choice, to these unnecessary fantasies of war, that they are resisting.
And it's making Mark Levine uh miserable.
And that is quite joyful to see, I have to admit.
Always joyful.
So a lot of speculation going on right now.
A lot of folks in Iran are trying to figure out is this aimed at them?
A lot of Israelis are looking at it and thinking, is this ultimately going to be a problem for Israel?
The bottom line is this.
This is the natural reaction, one of many natural reactions that will be emerging in the region for the next couple of years.
As a result of the collapse of the American security umbrella, no one in the region relies, will rely solely on the American security umbrella, having seen that it's neither effective nor reliable.
So there will be a natural search for other types of constellations in order to be able to make up for that.
And it will not be done fully, it will be several different layers uh uh and variations.
Uh
Uh, none of them will be as strong as the American security umbrella was perceived to be, at least at one point, despite the fact that Pakistan has nuclear weapons.
The question is which direction it will go from here.
If it ends up, if the Iranians, for instance, play their cards badly, it could end up becoming a regional constellation with the same aim as the US had for the last four decades, which was to isolate and contain Iran.
