I am so tired of those so-called "serious" political commentators who freak out every single time a "deal" and ”negotiation” with Islamic regime is mentioned. I completely understand why ordinary people (especially those inside Iran) are anxious and worried. But these people? They are supposed to know better right? Unfortunately, instead of helping, they make the public anxiety even worse and add to the chaos. They are not helping at all; in fact, they do major damage to the public mood because ordinary people look to them, and these commentators are just out there crying wolf. Honestly, they need to go take an anxiety management class first, that’s way more urgent for them. They need to pull themselves together. Trump has proven them wrong hundreds of times, they just don’t get it. These people are just so short-sighted. They only want the regime to go, and that's it, they completely miss the bigger, much more complex game being played. They are sitting there wishing Trump would act differently, but frankly, who cares? They need to learn to look at what is actually happening on the ground. It feels like many of these people don't even understand the logic of chess. Let's review how chess actually works: chess takes time, and it involves back-and-forth moves. Your opponent gets to play too, they don't just sit there. Every single time the other side makes a move, these people completely panic. Well, let them move! What matters is that they aren't winning, and their moves are ultimately futile. You don't get checkmated in the first minute, and different pieces have different functions. Trump's strategy has been crystal clear from day one: he delivers a blow, steps back to gauge the impact, and strikes again, slowly scaling it up. This step-by-step calibrated pressure is far more effective and efficient in terms of energy and cost. People forget that Trump hasn't been sitting idle. From the previous ceasefire until now, look at everything that has been done: the status of the regime's proxies has been clarified, an international consensus had to be built, and military logistics (like planning supply lines and corridors) had to be set up. Trump doesn't have a magic wand; a massive operation like this requires heavy preparation. Sure, the regime might catch a breath in the middle of all this, but who cares? This is an asymmetric war. It should be crystal clear by now that Trump isn't looking for a long-lasting deal with them. A "deal" to him is just a tool in his toolbox. Trump doesn't just want the regime gone; what matters most to him is that Iran is not destroyed alongside the regime, especially since the regime has taken Iran as shield. If Trump wanted to wipe them out at any cost, he could have done it a thousand times over already, and he wouldn't be paying this massive political price. But he is dismantling them layer by layer. If these people still think this regime has a genuine chance of surviving, you seriously have to question their knowledge and sanity. Let's be clear: this whole recent talk and theater is just to calm the market ahead of the November 3rd elections, and to shape public opinion so they can say, "We tried every diplomatic path, but the regime refused to cooperate." The next strike is 100% on the way. I don't know the exact time or how, but the strike itself is certain. Calm down, and try to look at the big picture with a more mature, global perspective instead of panicking over nothing.
