We will have to wait and see the truth behind what has been going on behind the scenes. Right now there is only one thing that matters FINISHING THIS. I do believe that it would be very good for the United States to get involved and use the bunker busters only we have to end this. As you note and any sane person understands there is now no point in ending this prematurely. Iran is causing Israel casualties with their wanton firing of missiles but not so many that cannot be accepted (though not to those involved of course) Israel appears to be acting at will and should seek to continue to do so until it is done, whatever that looks like. Under no circumstances can the Mullah regime be allowed to survive.

In 2016 GOP Primary I was ABT (Anyone But Trump) By Fall of 2017 I started to realize Trump was actually a Pretty Good CENTER/Right Republican President (think Eisenhower). For Better Or Worse the Pre-Trump GOP is going away.

The Problem is The Democratic Party doesn't realize that.

Given Israel’s intelligence capabilities I have to believe it’s knows exactly what it’s doing

As to Trump, you may have written too soon, i.e. before he talked to Putin.

You just never know who he's going to talk to or what he's going to say. Tomorrow he could say something completely different.
