Fresh from Decapitating Venezuela, Donny triggered a new war against Iran overnight.

Will it be brief? No, it will escalate first. It will escalate because Iran responded.

Of course they did. Presumably everyone knew that before it was triggered.

Who is meant to benefit? We could try answering that now, and then we can look back later and see how close the outcome came to the intention.

History has taught us that Iran do not roll over and capitulate as Trump reportedly expected them to do.

It also teaches us that attacking a dictator is the best way to keep the regime in power.

It appears that, as well as attacking nuclear and military targets, Trump is also attempting to assassinate the Ayatollah - last time America bombed a presidential Palace all they managed was to kill Khaddafi's children.

All in all, madness.
