Is President Trump’s strategy slowly breaking Iran’s regime, or giving Tehran time to recover?
Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev examine the growing debate over Trump’s approach to Iran, including economic pressure, the blockade of Iranian ports, the Strait of Hormuz, Iran’s nuclear ambitions, rising oil prices, and the possibility of renewed military action. Could a prolonged war of attrition weaken the Islamic Republic, or was stopping short of decisive victory a dangerous mistake?
Then, the conversation turns to Gaza: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s rejection of a proposed 15-point plan, reports of restraint by the IDF, Hamas’s refusal to disarm, and the possibility of private understandings between Trump and Netanyahu.
Is Trump playing the long game, or allowing a dangerous regime to survive? Let us know what you think in the comments!
