And lost in this, a war now seemingly going nowhere fast, has been the outward voices of both Russia and China...the voices of both Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping...who one would think would play a big yet albeit silent part in our war with Iran especially with both countries trying to make inroads into the Middle East.
So here let's start with Russia and Vladimir Putin by first understanding that Russia has maintained somewhat of a delicate balancing act in the Middle East by having friendly and growing trade and other relations with Israel coupled with Putin having a friendship of sorts with Benjamin Netanyahu in spite of Russia's military ties with Iran...or as Putin calls it, “a nuanced relationship.”...Read entire article here.
Sadly, even with that news, our country still remains divided over both the logistics of how this war is being fought and who is actually the one calling all the shots and why no matter that some interesting but not unexpected developments have occurred, including that the much ballyhooed Trump re-initiated blockade of the “Strait of Hormuz” is back in full operational mode.
And while I admit that I have not been pleased with some of the decisions Trump has made, here I must come to his defense in regards to the fact that many nations, including some of our allies, continue to condemn his reinstating of the blockade.Why so...because I truly believe that they do not understand the cause and effect legalities involved. For example, while “The International Law of Naval Warfare (LONW) governs actual armed conflict at sea, it's the“Law of Armed Conflict” (LOAC) that dictates hostilities, distinction, and the proportionality of war, and that both do combine together to meld into the “United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea” (UNCLOS). And while it's this law that requires “unimpeded passage” through the “Strait of Hormuz” and other what are deemed to be “vital and neutral waterways,” there is caveat in these laws which states as long as the nation initiating the blockade respects the terms as written in the “San Remo Manual” that they are legally able to do so.
So what exactly is this all important “San Remo Manual”...which President Trump surely had to know about...but a list of demands including that both“belligerent and neutral states” be made fully aware of the fact that a blockade was to be put into effect; that said blockade would be effective in its endeavors; that the blockade can be enforced impartially against vessels from all nations both friends and foes alike; that the blockade is not being put into place for the sole purpose of starving civilian populations; and that humanitarian relief and aid must be allowed to reach said civilian populations if they have not already been adequately provided for.
And while President Trump, I'm sure has followed the letter of the law in regards to the “San Remo Manual”...Secretary of State Marco Rubio would most assuredly see to that..I'm just as sure that Iran has not and likely never will follow said manual. Why so...because their actions already taken... actions clearly in direct violation of said manual...are there for all to see. And this includes Iran's so-called “indiscriminate mining” of the Strait minus their having not given the “San Remo Manual” required “notice of hazardous zones” to those involved; coupled with their also having not taken the much needed precautions to safeguard civilians when they originally started mining the Strait. Now add in the fact that Iran also did not comply with the required tracking of those mines nor did they issue the also required mariner notifications...again as per the “Sam Remo Manual.”
So while President Trump was not just right, but legally right, in his reinstating the “Gulf of Hormuz” naval blockade, he was, in my opinion, totally wrong in even thinking of selling U.S. F-35 jets to Turkey...Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Turkey. Why so...because Erdogan's no longer being veiled anti-Israel rhetoric regarding the “Jewish State” being an “existential and genocidal threat to the region,” has become not only a growing destabilizing factor in and of itself, but poses numerous security and geopolitical risks not just to Israel but to our country and our other allies as well.
How so...because with Turkey continuing to operate the Russian S-400 air-defense system, this alone could possibly allow Russia to study and then compromise the F-35's actual stealth capabilities. Trump should know this as well as he should know that 2017's “Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act” (CAATSA) was designed to penalize not reward countries that engage in “significant business transactions” involving the defense or intelligence sectors operating under Russian technology...as does Turkey, Iran, and North Korea.
But Erdogan knew exactly how to bypass this law by his“reportedly” transferring Turkey's S-400 defense system to a yet to be disclosed Gulf state, while at the same time relishing in the fact that Trump has already announced plans to lift U.S. sanctions on Turkey. Nothing like stabbing our ally Israel in the back yet again...nothing like hoping to successfully “pull the wool' over Trump's eyes.
So now as I write this, Erdogan is still hoping to make the F-35 deal with Trump...our president who sadly still does not fully understand the ideology nor the objectives of Islam. And Erdogan will happily sign on the dotted line with fingers crossed behind his back as Israel...as Netanyahu...who is vehemently opposed to this deal...gets stabbed in the back once again.
And lost in this, a war now seemingly going nowhere fast, has been the outward voices of both Russia and China...the voices of both Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping...who one would think would play a big yet albeit silent part in our war with Iran especially with both countries trying to make inroads into the Middle East.
So here let's start with Russia and Vladimir Putin by first understanding that Russia has maintained somewhat of a delicate balancing act in the Middle East by having friendly and growing trade and other relations with Israel coupled with Putin having a friendship of sorts with Benjamin Netanyahu in spite of Russia's military ties with Iran...or as Putin calls it, “a nuanced relationship.”
Economics folks...simple economics helps to drive wars forward or keeps them contained...and economics more times than not does determine which side of a war a country will or will not be on.
And that which is economics worked in our, Israel's, and Russia's favor here. How so...because Putin was well aware that with almost two million people of Russian descent...people who fled to Israel from what was (thanks to Reagan) the then fallen Soviet Union...people who economically flourished in Israel...people who sent money home to family still in Russia in an effort to help keep alive their cultural ties to Russia. And this in time saw Russia opening the door to a modern day melding of cultural and economic ties with Israel, which aided Russia economically and on the global political front. How so... by not only helping to preserve Russia's Middle East geopolitical influence, but by it helping to temper down what Russia deemed to be “international economic alienation.”
So with Russia also being culturally and of course economically way more like Israel than it is Iran, and with trade relations with Israel now proving to be extremely beneficial to Russia as it helps with the economic drain the Ukraine war is putting on Russia's economy...Putin was wise enough to see that making amends with Israel was not only the right thing to do but that outwardly supporting Iran was far from a smart idea.
So for his and Russia's sake, Vladimir Putin wisely chose to be a somewhat “neutral observer” rather than his having to choose a definitive side to be on in regards to the Iran war. And know that if Putin had outwardly chosen to side with Iran that this war could well have included actual flashpoints between the U.S. and Russia as well...flashpoints whose outcome need not be said.
And so Putin being an “observer” rather than a player has helped to keep this war somewhat geographically contained...a good thing indeed.
Now in regards to why Xi Jinping and China, who also could have been a key player in the Iran War but thankfully is not, that too on some level is because of simple economics coupled with China's growing concerns that any assistance they could provide to Iran, while it might aid Iran’s ability to retaliate in the short term, it could end up involving China in a war with the U.S. either militarily or economically which surely would not be advantageous for China.
So now it seems that as the war continues on that what China wants is a “flexible alignments over the formal defense alliances that America has long prized.” And while China has, at times, openly condemned America and Israeli strikes and actions against Iran, it chooses instead to remain busy expanding its economic ties with Iran’s neighboring Gulf States in hopes of at least neutralizing America's regional influence.
Also, China remains very busy keeping an eye on Taiwan, while at the same time constructing what they call a “no limits” partnership with Russia to help in the reconstruction of a postwar Ukraine...that is if Russia wins said war. Simply, the current mindset of China remains that of "strategic ambiguity" in hopes of maintaining and then expanding trade ties with what they consider to be Middle East power brokers, which in turn would directly aid in growing China's economy.
Simply, like with Russia, China favors looking out for itself rather than wasting monies on giving material military support to Iran.
And so Iran is basically on its own, but with the mullahs now saying they will fight to the death, maybe President Trump should start worrying about just how...bio-weapons perhaps...and who will go down with them. Case closed.

RIGHT SIDE PATRIOTS...LIVE!
I truly believe Pahlavi is right in his quest, but will the world heed his call? That is soon to be seen what with “populist” street protests continuing on in unprecedented numbers, while at the same time worldwide sympathy has decidedly shifted in the Iranian peoples favor.
But why specifically did 65-year old Pahlavi issue this long awaited call for unity now? The most obvious answer is simply because it truly is time for the theocratic, mullah run dictatorship to be ousted from power so that freedom comes to the very country...the very people...who were the most westernized in the entirety of the Middle East...save for the Jewish State of Israel that is...before the 1979 Islamic Revolution that sent Iran hurling back to the sixth century.
And this regression all happened while the world simply looked away, thus giving Iran's now dictatorial regime the time needed to outwardly became the world's leading sponsor of terrorism. And said terrorism came replete with a multitude of proxy armies willing to do Iran's terrorist bidding...for a price that is...a price consisting of not just monetary funding, but weapons, and “safe harbor” if need be for said proxies who also had agendas of the own.
And I do believe that Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi...the rightful heir to Iran’s “Peacock Throne”... not only knows this, but now has that burning fire within himself as well, and probably always has. And it's this inner fire that has allowed Pahlavi to become not just the most recognizable and most influential of all the Iranian opposition leaders fighting from abroad, but for him to also become the most recognized and trusted voice amongst the sum of Iran's opposition leaders who are working from within the country itself. And this alone can be witnessed by the words, “Javid shah”...as in “Long Live the King”...now being heard echoing in the streets of Iran.
And it's this “populist movement”...a “movement” encompassing not just the young, but also those who remember Iran before the revolution...might well succeed whereas the street protests of 2009, 2019, and 2022 failed. Why so? With Iran's economy now in the throes of complete and total collapse the Iranian people themselves are being hit hard, while in protests past Iran's economy, while in trouble, did not actually collapse. And like with most people when their “pocketbooks” are hurting an opening for actual change presents itself where none really existed before.
So as all the pieces of this truly time sensitive puzzle are now starting to fall into place...fall into place for not just successful regime change, but for true and lasting freedom for the Iranian people as well...let our voices join with theirs as well.
And now what's needed to help in their fight for freedom is, once again, for us...for freedom loving people everywhere...to let our voices come together on Saturday, February 14th, to let the Iranian people know...to let Reza Pahlavi and his fellow freedom fighters know...that America and the world stands united together in their just cause. Case closed.
True words...rightful words...words as powerful in their meaning today as were the words, “the shot heard around the world” some 250 years ago. Fighting words...words not open for discussion, interpretation nor deviation...a simple thirteen word statement that in its strength should wake up the Iranian people to the fact that it was their government's hate-fueled, religious fanaticism that led to those words even having to be said. Thirteen words of fact, that at the same time opens up the possibility for change...change not just in the eliminating of Iran's nuclear ambitions, but change involving the mindset of those being oppressed... oppressed to the point where a 6th century mentality now clashes with the want for 21st century weapons of war...a dangerous combination whose outcome could well affect us all.
And so with Netanyahu's statement being unquestionable reality, and with the current ongoing situation seeing the mullahs saying “no” to President Trump's “unconditional ceasefire” demand...Iran has much “face saving” to do after Israel caught them “off guard” by inflicting major damage to their nuclear facilities, their military, as well as Iran's mainline infrastructure...damage which will undoubtedly take years, if not decades, for them to recover from.
However, Israel's actions taken have now afforded the long suffering Iranian people with a rare opportunity for securing much needed “regime change.” How so? Simply by Israel's having opened a pathway for the many resistance groups operating separately inside Iran to unite together as one, and actually succeed in overthrowing what is their country's tyrannical and ever so repressive government... a government so mired down in religious fanaticism that when coupled with its decaying 6th century mindset being bolstered with their dream of securing 21st century nuclear weapons...Iran has truly become a threat to us all...a threat that must be eliminated at all costs.
“The decision to act, to rise up this time, is the decision of the Iranian people.”
And so while most of the physical aspects of fighting in this now officially declared war is best left to Israel...with a modicum of help hopefully soon coming from the U.S...what is true and lasting peace can only be secured by the Iranian people themselves. Nation building is not an option nor in this case is it a just cause, but exposing the sins committed by Ayatollah Khamenei against his own people should enter into the public discourse so that Iran's once glorious past can freely become Iran's now hoped for future.
Convoluted logic perhaps, yet it is a touch off point for those oppressed to rally around for once the physical aspects of this war come to an end, whomever or whatever form of government replaces the mullahs, they will still be faced with political, social, and economic crises that existed even before Iran's war with Israel. “Regime change,” while desperately needed, is one thing, but said change must come with workable solutions or else it really serves no purpose, nor does it contribute anything of substance to aid in regional stability, regional security, or true freedom for the Iranian people.
And said change, especially via a much needed “populist uprising”...which have led to massive protests in the past...does not necessarily mean that a new Iranian government would follow in the footsteps of what is deemed to be western style “democracy.” In fact, at this point in time “democracy” as we know it does seem highly unlikely for the simple reason that three of Iran's main ideological factions...as in the reformists, moderates, and conservatives...do have differences and have always had differences regarding major policy issues and decisions, and most likely still do.
But probably the best thing, in our opinion, is for any “regime change” that were to take place to follow the secular ideology that was initiated under then Reza Shah Pahlavi... as in to separate unyielding religious ideologies from what should be a truly secular government. Remember, the Shah replaced islamic laws (Sharia laws) with civil codes based upon French law in order to “weaken the power”of Iran's religious hierarchy; he also established secular schools and promoted a modern educational system where women were included; he promoted women's rights in general; as well as initiating land reforms in what was called the “White Revolution.” Simply, Reza Shah Pahlavi wanted to “modernize” Iran and make it part of the then 20th century world...now Iran needs to become part of the 21st century world which can only happen with “regime change” initiated by the Iranian people themselves.
However, for an actual “regime change” to be successful in Iran especially in today's heated political world, any new government coming into power must initiate broad based social and economic changes not unlike those of the aforementioned Reza Shah Pahlavi for without those changes...which must include both full rights for women coupled with social reform...Iran would still be mired down in the “what is and what was” instead of what “should and could be.”
And “what is” under the mullahs sees Iran's economy in a total state of disrepair due to not only gross mismanagement, widespread corruption, and broad international sanctions...especially the sanctions imposed by the U.S...but Iran's high inflation rate of 43.4%...which is up from last years 32.6%...has seen poverty increasing throughout the country, with Iran now the recipient of the dubious honor of having one of the world's highest inflation rates. How proud the mullahs must be...sarcastically said of course.
So while “regime change” is indeed most likely to happen once Iran's foolishly taken war with Israel comes to an end with Iran issuing a formal “declaration of surrender,” the first thing its new leaders need to do is form an “interim government” until actual “free and fair” elections are able to take place within a pre-set agreed upon period of time. And when said elections are over and ballots are being counted and tallied...and if said elections were indeed without “interference”...it will be the Iranian people themselves who have decided what type of government they want. And we must let the chips fall as they may as to whether said new government is more friendly to the U.S. and Israel or not...but hopefully it will be.
And with “regime change” remaining on the table for Israel in regards to Iran, it is not on the table in regards to U.S. actions taken nor is it under consideration...at least not yet and might never be...but that’s not to say that “regime change” is unwanted by the U.S. Obviously, “regime change” is both desired and necessary if the Iranian people are to secure the very freedom they so desire, but it's also necessary for the stability of the region, and for global stability as well.
Since 1979 Iran has caused trouble not only in the Middle East but worldwide as well, and for the past four decades has been the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism. Iran has also been responsible for the deaths of thousands, including American military personnel and American citizens. And know that for the Iranian people...especially for Iranian women...the mullahs reign of terror that is the hallmark of Iran is no less deadly nor less oppressive. Simply, what is the islamic regime as it stands now must go, but as we stated earlier that is not up to us, it is up to the Iranian people to do what they know needs to be done.
Obviously, the U.S. has been assisting Israel in a defensive posture, helping to shoot down ballistic missiles being fired out of Iran and into Israel. As that has occurred over the past ten days, Iran has continued not only to issue threats towards the United States, but they have also fired on or had their proxies fire on U.S. assets in the region. Granted, threats are threats, and any rockets fired at our bases and personnel in the region have been minimal, but such actions cannot and should not be dismissed. After all, this comes from the regime that has for four decades been chanting, “Death to Israel, death to America.”
Bluntly put…they mean it, and to ignore it now in the face of a desperate, crumbling regime would be foolish, and could be fatal.
As to why we should become more involved by engaging inside of Iran, it’s really quite simple. While Israel has done remarkable work after showing extraordinary patience over the decades, our engagement even on a rather limited basis, is needed. It’s not that Israel can’t handle this and see it through on its own…they certainly can, but at what cost in blood and treasure? We fully believe that Israel has not only the military resources, but also the intel resources to eliminate the Iranian regime, and their continued threat to the existence of Israel…but it would take much longer to reach that conclusion without U.S. assistance than it would with it.
Israel, we believe, could eliminate Iran’s last remaining nuclear facilities, be they research, enrichment, or weapons facilities with a lengthy and very dangerous ground invasion of some sort. While it may not look like what we would expect with tanks, artillery, and boots on the ground, we know that Israel cannot destroy the Fordow facility from the air. That is where U.S. engagement is needed.
From the air, with B-2 stealth bombers dropping 30,000 pound bunker-busters on Fordow, the U.S. would very quickly eliminate such a deeply buried facility. Israel has cleared the path to Fordow, and potentially other such sites, by wiping out Iranian air defense systems over the early days of this war. Furthermore, Israel has decapitated the Iranian upper echelon of Iranian military leadership, and put the Iranian military into a tailspin. What little is left of Iranian air defense would have a great deal of trouble trying to defend Fordow, as the B-2 stealth bombers would be dropping their payloads from nearly 50,000 feet, and the stealth nature of the aircraft themselves would make them all but invisible to Iranian radar or targeting on a good day.
Make no mistake, Iran is having very, very bad days at this point.
Obviously, there are several scenarios such a U.S. action could take place, but let’s be honest here as our ability to hit a target from 50,000 feet in the dark is better than Iran’s ability to target a B-2 stealth bomber by “line of sight” in broad daylight. We believe a U.S. bunker buster mission is more likely to occur at night, with damage assessment undertaken the next day via a combination of satellite recon and Israeli intel from ground-based positions.
The B-2’s that would carry out such an operation would most likely fly out of Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. It’s roughly a 12-13 hour flight from there to Iran, and it would require several mid-air refueling operations both on the way there and on the way back. It’s not at all advantageous for our bombers to land for refueling on the way to Iran, as each B-2 on such a mission would be carrying two 30,000 pound bunker-busters. Landing under that sort of weight would be problematic. On the way back, landing anywhere in the Middle East region would be a security risk, but a stop outside the region may not be off the table.
While the ordinance most likely to be used, the GBU-57A/B MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator), is designed to both penetrate and crush heavily shielded or deeply buried underground targets. The specs on the GBU-57A/B MOP advertise its ability to reach out and touch…destroy…targets at 250 feet below ground level, almost exactly the depth of the Iranian Fordow facility. We believe it would also be likely that at least one B-2 or perhaps two would take part in such a mission. Note, too, that the B-2’s used for the delivery of the GBU-57A/B MOP can each hold two of them, and that a pair of said bombers could potentially drop four such bunker-busters onto one target, or two each on two separate targets.
That should be, and most likely will be the extent of any U.S. involvement outside of continuing to assist in defending Israel from Iranian missiles. We say “should be” because it really all depends on the actions of the rogue and crumbling Iranian regime. They’re in trouble, they know it, they’re desperate, and they’re insane. While Iran is running out of ballistic missiles, they do have enough left for an almost unthinkable final act of terror. Don’t be surprised if the insanity of the Iranian regime doesn’t in one last final act, decide on their way down and out, to fit some of their remaining missiles with dirty radioactive material, or God forbid if they do have a functioning nuke as we have long believed they do in spite of reports to the contrary…that they will use it against Israel.
If that happens all bets are off, and further engagement by the U.S. would be back on the table.
As to whom would benefit from the end of Iran’s terroristic regime and the destruction of Iran’s dream of possessing nuclear weapons...with which they would try to make good on their threats to wipe Israel from the map and hold the world hostage...the simple answer is that the whole world would benefit. Peace in the Middle East is a worthy goal, but stability is a much more immediate and attainable goal. While nature abhors a vacuum, political ideologies abhor a vacuum of power, and it will be ultimately up to the people of Iran to see to it that such a vacuum does not happen.
The benefits are obvious for Israel and the whole of the Middle East, but most interestingly the benefit of the fall of Iran’s regime of tyranny might just be the rise of the Trump version of “peace through strength.” By engaging in limited action in concert with one of our greatest allies Israel, President Trump has the opportunity to put the Trump doctrine front and center on the world stage. President Trump has given Iran every opportunity to change direction on their own accord, but when limited action becomes the last resort, a decisive blow, quick, targeted, and coordinated to take down a clear and present threat will be taken.
Israel is not asking us to fight their war for them, and they are not interested in a protracted war. They don’t want our boots on the ground in Iran, and they do not intend to invade Iran. Iran is not just a threat to Israel, that regime is a threat to the whole of the civilized world, and can no longer be allowed to hold sway in the region or hold the rest of the world hostage. It must end now, and Iran's ability to wage war must be destroyed.
If we sit it out when a targeted mission will accelerate the end of the Iranian regime, we can never be “the shining light on the hill” the rest of the world can look to in dire times.

And while most will think Russia, I say NO you're wrong...it's China. Why so...China has been trying to make inroads into the Middle East for some time now, something many aren't aware of. China desperately wants to be a 'player' in the region and as usual it revolves around oil and influence.
Simply, two things must happen now. First, Israel must take out the mullahs and give the Iranian resistance full support in their quest for regime change, which we should do as well. And second, if I was Trump I'd say to Xi Jinping 'We don't need your cheaply made crap, it's 'Made in America, Buy American' all the way!'' China needs American consumers more than we need them for they fear their economy collapsing without us...we do NOT need China for anything.
My opinion and I stand by every word I've said.
Copyright © 2025 Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / All rights reserved.
Let's cut to the chase and start by saying that as I write this article the Trump team is still negotiating with the Islamic Republic of Iran to try and temper down the current Middle East situation regarding both the Jewish State of Israel and the now displaced Palestinian people remaining in Gaza. And while that's a lofty and honorable deed to attempt, the fact remains that we...the United States of America... should not be negotiating with terrorists, neither singularly, collectively, or as a nation especially after seeing all the harm that Barack Obama caused with his infamous “5 for 1” Taliban terrorist exchange deal.
You remember said deal...or at least you should...for it's the deal where Obama ordered released from Gitmo five detained Taliban terrorists in exchange for the American traitor Beau Bergdahl...and know its ramifications do haunt us to this day for the five's release directly led to more American military members being killed or wounded.
And the “Jewish State of Israel” knows this better than most as all their efforts to secure a lasting peace with her, for the most part, still hostile Arab neighbors have failed to date, no matter that Israel and the PLO signed the “Oslo Accords” back in September 1993. And yet Israel has continued over these many years to strive for peace, and has done so the point where some Israeli prime ministers knowingly made a number of unwise “concessions” in the hope that peace could finally be achieved. Even Israel giving the so-called Palestinians the enclave known as “Gaza” failed for its population elected the Iranian funded terrorist organization known as Hamas as its governing body, which in a warped sort of way gave a misplaced semblance of legitimacy to what remains Iran's terrorist proxy army.
Iran does not want peace...it cannot be said more clearly or directly than that. What Iran wants... actually what Iran demands...is not only their possessing nuclear weapons, but Islam gaining world domination with all knees bent in allegiance and submission to allah, along with Israel being wiped from the face of the map. And how exactly do we know this... because the qur'an in its own words dictates it so.
But no matter my words stated, the reality is that the indoctrination of hate runs deep within those deemed islamists and/or jihadists...individuals who will do and say every and anything necessary to win the mullah's deemed “Holy War” against Israel and the West. And that includes using “taqiyya”... as in the art of “lying”...to justify their means...an art so finely tuned that “lying” itself has now become a constant within said followers what passes for their inner consciousnesses.
But as long as Iran exists under the tyrannical rule of the mullahs...and I cannot say this enough...I strongly believe that Iran cannot be trusted on any level for the qur'an remains their guiding force with it's words clearly non-apologetic weapons of war. Lying, deceit, and deception under the guise of “taqiyya” is not only permitted but demanded of the faithful for the act of “taqiyya” is of fundamental importance to Islam itself. And this importance is not just in regards to today's political whelm, but with it also being an accepted means by which to push forward the words and teachings of Mohammad...Islam's deemed “most perfect human”...and to do so by any and all means possible.
And all I just stated must not be forgotten for the sham of peace talks now going on with Iran...talks President Trump must know to be but proverbial “window dressing” of sorts that must be allowed to play out on the world stage before it rightfully collapses no matter any “concessions” Iran might have made...with fingers crossed behind their backs of course... or might not have made, And yet Trump still believes that a new pact with what is the Islamic Republic of Iran would block Iran's path to a nuclear bomb.
Remember, the qur'an itself dictates to its followers that they must not bow down to or even befriend one who is islam's enemy or even a nonbeliever for fear of facing allah's wrath, something I think even the mullahs would dare not do...something a peace deal or any deal brokered by President Trump would indeed do. Benjamin Netanyahu knows this...he's always known this...and that's why Israel is rightfully holding back to wait and see how this all plays out for a signature on paper is easily erased when the shadow of mohammad's will hangs over all those involved.
Stand strong President Trump...continue to stand strong Prime Minister Netanyahu...for the strength of the United States and Israel united together in the hope of securing Middle East peace is stronger than the will of the mullahs, and even stronger than the supposed will of allah himself. Case closed.
