That’s not something that can be ELI5. That’s like just our opinions, man.
Oil reserves got low enough that the stock market was about to react. He’s only capable of looking at short term consequences and running out of oil reserves would have an obvious, immediate effect.
I thought he was more enthusiastic about the World Cup. So he simply decided to put the war to an end, meeting his demands half way.
Iran’s leaders promised him hotels in Tehran. Same thing Netanjahu promised him in Gaza.
He didn’t. He’s stalling for time so he can get a new carrier group to the gulf. Zionists won’t let peace happen, they want Greater Israel at all cost.
Also, he must keep the news pointed away from the Epstein Files, especially before the midterms.
It’s all a distraction from the Epstein files.
Isn’t the USA big enough for them ??
The Bibi/Trump breakup, he doesn’t have the public support to actually fight the war in a way that he can potentially win, more inflation means he’ll lose his base, farmers need fertilizer, the gulf states didn’t actively participate, the USN needs its Bahrain gas station.
What does that mean ?? The gulf states didn’t actively participate ??
They didn’t actively fight in the war
You had expected them to fight ??
I don’t know who you is, but I’ll wager that the planners thought that once Iran started striking their infrastructure they’d fight. Iran, Israel, Saudi, and the UAE have been fighting each other through proxies for quite a while.
The US didn’t have a definable end so so planners had no way to really plan this the way they historically would.
The states you mentioned belong to the Middle East. Why they fight and how they fight is entirely their business.
My question is, what business had Trump in continuing the fight after Netanyahu sparked off the whole thing ??
The fall out wasn’t very pleasant, at least not where l live, even though l live far away from the Middle East.
We’ve been talking war with Iran for 25 years, usually .gov comes to their senses this time they didn’t.
