Trump has been backing the wrong side in Ukraine, and may soon launch a war in Iran that he cannot control. But he has what he calls an “armada”, led by the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, that is threatening Iran. Iran itself may collapse into civil war in the wake of what Trump has promised could be “far worse” than last year’s Israeli-US 12-day campaign that targeted Iran’s nuclear industry and its leading nuclear officials. If Trump is looking for a humanitarian imperative to use American weapons, at no risk to US personnel, it is in Ukraine, not Iran. There would be no winners from an attack on Iran, but with some US help, Ukraine could be victorious.
