President Trump, Israel, and the Iranian Jihad

From the linked article by Majid Rafizadeh:

Cooperation with Israel—America’s most important ally in the region— needs to be further strengthened and deepened. Israel has shown that it can penetrate Iran’s airspace, gather intelligence, and execute precise operations. To maintain this superiority, Israel must be fully supported. This backing should include providing Israel with advanced weaponry, intelligence, and bunker-busting bombs capable of destroying underground nuclear sites. Air dominance is key. President Trump together with Israel need to create a future where deterrence is truly effective and the Iranian regime cannot even contemplate hiding a nuclear program underground.

At the same time, Trump’s Middle East strategy needs to include building coalitions and alliances that further isolate the Iranian regime. Trump’s trailblazing Abraham Accords—a set of normalization agreements between Israel and Arab nations—represented a historic breakthrough that eluded presidents for decades. These Accords, by attempting to bring former enemies together in a shared vision of stability and economic cooperation, shifted the geopolitical map of the Middle East. Under Trump’s leadership, the possibility of expanding the Accords to include more nations—even those previously aligned against Israel—is real. He has already initiated outreach toward countries such as Saudi Arabia, Oman, and even Syria, thereby forging diplomatic paths that could create a united regional front. Such a coalition would not only serve to contain Iran’s influence but also to lay the foundation for a new Middle East order—one built not on conflict and chaos, but on mutual security and partnership.

Do you think a peaceable Iran is possible?
Would you trust Syria now ruled by a terrorist?

I wouldn’t trust Iran at all. I trust Syria about as far as I can throw Rosie O’Donnell.

My guess would be “no” to both questions.
I’m glad Trump is going further with sanctions on Iran. To “finish the job”, without assassinating the Ayatollah, we will have to do it through sanctions.
