US officials appear to be backing away from threats to attack Iran,
claiming that the non-specific Iranian threats that were underpinning
the American threats have subsided.
The Pentagon is trying to take credit, suggesting that the non-specific
actions the Pentagon took convinced Iran to put their threats on hold.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani sees things cooling down as well, but
unsurprisingly has an entirely different take on what happened. Rouhani
says Trump and has aides have backed away from threatening Iran after the advice of the Pentagon.
Rouhani termed Trump and his team “novice politicians with naive ideas,”
and credited the unity of the Iranian public with convincing the US to
back away from talk of starting a war against Iran.
The reality is likely more complex than that, with President Trump
having been mostly silent while some of his aides talked up war, and
recent indications are that Trump’s reticence was part of why the US is
now changing the narrative.
Waiting for all cap tweet from Trump threatening annihilation for calling his team “novice politicians with novice ideas”. Hasn’t Rouhani been paying attention? Say the Donald is the greatest president of all time with an extraordinarily large penis and you will get whatever you want. Oh, and say Obama sucked.
DJT finally realized that the rantings/ravings of Bonkers Bolton on war with Iran was escalating tensions with Iran .. Still, he has to dump that lunatic and replace him with a real genuine diplomat who does have America’s interests at heart.
Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khameini had already announced Iran was not going to war with the US; yet, Bonkers kept up with his tirades. Not long before tensions did escalate, he had gone to Israel to discuss Iran with his bosom buddy, PM Bibzy Nutty&Yahoo. Now, if that isn’t treason, I don’t know what is. DJT sorely needs to dump him NOW.
True, tho I don’t think spanky cares what is said about his team, just him. His team are just stand-ins until he arrives and does the real threats, I mean, negotiations.
