It has become clear that Team Trump, unlike the Netanyahu junta, expected Iran to fold like a house of cards after the initial assault by their joint US-Israeli military operation. That has not happened because Iran has prepared for decades for this very moment.

We’ve learned how to destroy, but not to create; how to waste, but not to build; how to kill men, but not how to save them; how to die, but seldom how to live.
