Detta börjar mer och mer likna USA:s ”speciella militäroperation”.

Gammal gubbe omgiven av ja-sägare, jättesnabbt beslut mot underrättelsetjänstens inrådan, helt orealistiska förväntningar.

Iran “…has apologized and surrendered to its Middle East neighbors” …but will continue to be a threat “…until they surrender..,”
