By utilizing a blockade against Iran’s tariff scheme; and eye for an eye – we essentially admit to Iran’s control of the message. The US is now playing a game originated by Iran.
My personal remedy goes like this: you cannot win playing someones else’s game.
The game we originated has backed us into a corner. We are not Muhammad Ali or Cassius Clay – no rope-a-dope skills. It is time to cut losses. Unfortunately, Trump does not have that gene.
Twice during my lifetime I have had to completely rebuild my entire economic self, bottom up. I could not fail, either. But twice I did. God recovered me both times – but there were tears. You have to know when to hold them, and when to fold them – and move on. The catastrophe comes through a maze of shoddy decisions. We have more than one enemy. There are people watching this ill-gotten fiasco, possibly with a poorly construed ideology, similar to Israel.
President Trump is trying really hard to go down with history, and take us with him. But this is all hyperbole because we do not have any actual power to stop President Trump; the omnipotent God can.
How much pain shall the world endure waiting for Trump to realize he actually has no play?
[since when have we been forced to use Israel as forward staging for our logistical needs? that is what the GCC cooperatives ‘was’ for. and Germany]
