India will probably play mediator here given Modi’s fascism alliance with Netanyahu and India being a purchaser of Iranian oil while also helping Iran bust sanctions by buying oil in mutual currency and gold.

One lesson to be drawn is that persistence matters more than anything.

Netanyahu’s singular focus for the last 30 years has been to get the US to bomb Iran. Clinton, Bush, Bush, Obama, Obama, Trump, Biden, and finally succeed with Trump. Congress and presidency has changed parties multiple times. Doesn’t matter if times were good, OK, or terrible. Same message. Same goal. After all has been said and done, Israel is going to more than double in size. West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights and very shortly southern Lebanon.

Regarding war with Iran specifically, I think this is much less about persistence and much more about what happens when America selects an unqualified idiot to be President.

Obviously counterfactuals are a waste of time, but Bibi is 76. If the US continues along it's normal course of Presidents: Bush, Obama, Biden, etc., what is the likelihood that anyone with even a median knowledge of history, geopolitics, and cause and effect relationship (all of which the current President lacks) would have ever agreed to this, let alone within Bibi's lifetime?

IMO, this is much less about persistence than about the consequences of electing someone who is not fit, in any way, to be President.
