Oren on Trump Warnings to Iran: They’re Watching the Political Situation of Isolationist MAGA, who Don’t Want Another Middle Eastern War

‘Why would Iran want to invite an American military response?’

RUSH EXCERPT:
OREN: "So bear with me. This is going to be even more complex. There may be people in tehran who are thinking the following as a desperate sort of hail Mary move. We‘ll attack an American base or an American destroyer and get the United States to respond, because the Trump Administration has said. And secretary Rubio said in his first announcement that if Iran fires at any American assets in the Middle East, the United States will respond very robustly. Now, why would Iran want to invite an American military response? It‘s already fighting off Israel. The answer is this the Iranians are watching very carefully the internal political situation in Washington, particularly divisions within the Republican Party. And looking at that, that isolationist MAGA, part of the Republican Party that doesn‘t want to get involved in another middle eastern war and is already putting pressure on the president. So if the United States is perceived to be getting dragged into this war, there‘s going to be more pressure on the president. And then the hope of the Iranians will be that the president will then pressure the Israelis to stop the war. I know that‘s kind of convoluted, but welcome to the Middle East."
