First of all, Obama had a Nuclear Deal with Iran. Why? Because the persian culture is about 4000 to 5000 years old. That's only part of it. Just because we cannot get along with this government of Iran doesn't mean this culture doesn't go back 4000 to 5000 years sort of as long as China?
So, they weren't born yesterday and survived as a culture for 4000 to 5000 years. How long as America been a culture like it is? Since about 1600 at most (so 400 or 500 years at most).
So, there are 92 million Iranians and there are 9 million Israelis and Israel has only really existed at all in its present state really since World war II which is now 81 years basically that Israel was colonized by Jewish refugees mostly from Europe after 6 million of them were killed by Hitler in Europe.
So, writing Iran off as a viable culture capable of defending itself for 4000 to 5000 years doesn't make a lot of sense.
On top of this Trump got rid of Obama's nuclear deal which prevented completely what is happening now in Iran and throughout the Middle East. So, basically Trump has hit the Iran Hornet's nest with a baseball bat like some kid or teenager (to see what would happen?) I think this is likely what he did here.
And now it's taking the world into a 2nd Great Depression because of the worst Oil crisis ever in History even worse than the Arab Oil Embargo which stole from the lower 50% of income people in the U.S. all the buying power they had before this.
Think about this for a moment: in the 1950s a white male could support 5 people, buy a house, own 2 to three cars when he was only 17 years old by working as a garbage collector or carpenter or other sort of tradesman. Can this happen now? Nope.
What is this Iran War going to do worse than the Arab Oil Embargo of the 1970s which brought one recession after another, after another and even in 1980 when I bought 2 1/2 acres of land for cash it was because unemployment was at 10% in Cities and 20 to 40 percent out in the country. So, we saved 60,000 to 70,000 dollars by buying land and building our own house without electricity, phones or piped water. But, we did have a stream on the land we could use for bathing and washing dishes. We bought an antique wood cook stove for baking bread and cassaroles and my father welded up a good cast iron stove from a water pressure tank before he had piped in water on his 2 1/2 acres of land in Yucca Valley, California, his retirement home.
The point is: IF the Arab War Embargo took away the buying power completely from the average person in the 1970s through gas going from 17 cents a gallon to over a dollar or more per gallon what is this going to do to the average person around the world?
What do they have to do now? Starve to Death? Because they can no longer buy food?
This is why I recommend starting to grow your own food to survive these times while Trump is president because millions are likely going to starve to death from everything he is doing around the world now.
If Gas goes up as much in the present Iran war as during the Arab War Embargo Gas is going to cost around 25 dollars a gallon of you want a comparison to what happened to us in the 1970s. (of course this would be the cost in California. (using 5 dollars a gallon as a base for Regular).
Basically take what gas was before the Iran war where you are in the U.S. and multiply by 5 or more to get what happened then as a ratio. This or worse could be coming now from what Trump has done to the whole world!
If Trump withdraws from Iran tomorrow will that solve the problem? Probably not. The people of Iran are so pissed now from all the damage done to their country and all the people Trump killed that they likely are going to be fighting the U.S. and Europe and middle East for the next 50 years given past histories regarding stuff like this.
Besides, Iran does not have to win this war only not lose it. It's sort of like General Washington with Great Britain in 1776 to around 1780 or so. All he had to do was not lose this war to win which is what he did.
All Iran has to do is not to lose this war in the same way. Why?
Because this is a war of attrition. The revolutionary war brought England to the brink of Bankruptcy and on top of this England was at war with France at the same time. So, in the end England had to surrender to George Washington even though the English burned down the Capitol Building around 1814 before being defeated by Andrew Jackson in the New Orleans area.
So, if you are a student of history this is a war of attrition with the U.S. in some ways in the place of England in all of this. All Iran has to do is not to lose and Russia is keeping Iran from losing the war with Shahed drones made in Russia and blowing stuff up all over the Middle East right now which is making all the people pretty pissed there right now as well. So, now not only Iran but everyone on earth is mad at Trump at this point for harming their people and starving their people many to death with high gas and food prices. Because if you cannot ship the food to the people who need to eat it they are going to die. And to ship the food at high Gas or Diesel Prices just isn't going to work for most poorer people worldwide.
