Something you won't see discussed re: the #USA striking #Iran : spillovers.
What might happen next:
- the USA strikes North #Korea
- #China escalate the East China Sea & South China Sea issues
- China attack #Israel & #US allies to protect its interests in Iran
- The #AxisOfEvil activates
- China can also choose to escalate the war between #India and #Pakistan
- there is still the war between #Russia and #Ukraine
You won't see it discussed because #PacificAsia & the larger #AsiaPacific don't matter to most people saying their piece about the wars in the #MiddleEast .
Now that the USA joined the war against Iran, we are now dangerously close to #WorldWarIII #WorldWar3 #WWIII #WW3 , it all comes down to the next action of the freaking colonial mentality USA and superstitious China (a.k.a. Dragon Emperor myth).
Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States of America:

#Trump: "Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer 'need,' or desire, the NATO Countries’ assistance — WE NEVER DID!
Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea.
In fact, speaking as President of the United States of America, by far the Most Powerful Country Anywhere in the World, WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
President DONALD J. TRUMP"
Check back in an hour or two to see how our President is doing then...

“We could not get to a situation where the Iranians could accept our terms.”
Those words just now from #VicePresident #JDVance demonstrate the fundamental flaw in these "negotiations"--a simplistic expectation on the part of the US that Iran would agree to American terms in the span of hours or days.
That is not a negotiation. That is an ultimatum. Those are two very different things.
To offer an ultimatum and have it be accepted, the other party has to perceive itself as having no choice--in other words, to be weak enough that they have to accept terms, rather than begin talks.
Iran does not see itself as that weak...far from it. So why would the US think it could go in and dictate terms?
A very discouraging update indeed.
