Fears that decision to strike could be open-ended as Trump comes under pressure to spell out his vision for the country
Donald Trump is under pressure to spell out his vision for Iran amid the ongoing attacks on the country and reports of the first American casualties since the launch of unprovoked US and Israeli military strikes.
Trump’s critics are demanding that the White House provide greater clarity about what comes next. Opponents and analysts say the lack of a clear plan outlined so far has created a danger of the US being sucked into a long-lasting conflict of the sort that Trump repeatedly vowed to avoid.
“If the administration has a game plan, they have yet to reveal it, frankly,” said Alex Vatanka, a senior fellow and Iran specialist at the Middle East Institute in Washington.
Calling them accelerationists is giving them too much credit.
They don’t want to see it burn, they just want to feel like their “team” won. Whether it burns and hurts them doesn’t matter as long as they think it hurts the “woke libs” more.
People who lack empathy simply can’t understand that lifting others up will pay back in kind and lift themselves up, too. It’s all a zero sum game to these pricks.
