Iran is a big country, and Iranians will definitely fight to the last. Those old enough would have read about the Persians (now Iranians) and their military exploits and conquest, until internal strife forced the country into decline. The USA wants to support the former Shah's son to rule under its control, just like the father before, which is not going to happen. This will need a regime change, which the USA is trying to instigate by using the CIA to ferment unrest, and all the while talking about the cruelty of the regime and how many were killed. How does Iranian protestor casualties compare to what Israel killed in Gaza by resorting to hunger, energy and access to healthcare genocides? Isn't that cruelty of the highest order?
For the USA to exert control over Iran is well-nigh impossible. The USA could not even control Afghanistan after 20 long years, with the Taliban not on the same military league as Iran. Supporters of the ruling Iranian Regime will still be around and together with the Houthis, the Straits of Hormuz and the Bab Al-Mandab passage into the oil states will be closed for business. Iran and the Houthis will be setting a trap for the USA, to be entangled in the Middle East for maybe another twenty years.
Will the USA even survived the present next few years with protests erupting into a civil war on top of economic problems galore. Trump is calling the situation in Minnesota as an 'insurrection' which will probably result in more killings and eventual emergency rule, an idea that he is possibly formulating in his sick mind, just listening to his verbal diarrhea about needing a dictatorship to rule effectively. The man is now unfit to rule and should be consigned to the 'cuckoo's nest'.

Scott Bessent tried to pull a fast one on Canadian PM, Mark Carney, claiming that he walked back on his speech in Davos over a phone call with Trump. Carney denied all the allegation, which means he is sticking to his views.
The USA's modus operandi had and has always been making frivolous claims without basis and sticking on to it and then blaming the other party for not honoring the deal, when no deals were actually done, just basically providing channels for further negotiations. Those meetings with China in the past were examples of USA claiming done deals that were never the case.
I thought former USA Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken was a sleasebag, but Scott Bessent really puts him in the shade. The lies that Bessent manufactured and speaking in front of the camera were absolutely morbid, horrendous and ridiculous. Which is why he can be chosen as Secretary of State in Trump's administration, a gathering of misfits. About his credentials as a successful hedge fund manager/owner losing all the US$5 billion investments is about as credible a person to trust, and comparable only to Trump's six bankruptcies. How the hillbillies could consider Trump as a good President is beyond belief and could only happen in USA.
In Singapore, a person convicted of an offence and fined US$10,000 cannot stand for election. Trump's bankruptcies probably border on fraud due to its recurrence, which must be considered as 'exceptional' talents in the USA. Little wonder some people, including our old man, commented that the West can never elect good leaders into office. Some even compare the USA as a circus, allowing clowns to rule the country.
