President Trump addressed the nation, expressing hope that this would bring an end to the war. Iran has been the leading terrorist nation-state, funding its proxies, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis. My concern is that this has always been a religious war underneath. The computer is not so hopeful. Much will now depend upon Iran’s response, which may come the week of June 30th. Examining the computer, it does not appear that there was any option for diplomacy. As I have said many times, my personal wishes or opinions do not matter. Whenever I bet against the computer, I always lose.

President Trump left the door open if Iran hunkers down and still refuses peace. Let’s hope Israel does not assassinate the Supreme Leader, transforming him into a martyr. Such an outcome implies that this will become a widespread conflict culminating by 2030, with sleeper cells being activated in Europe and the United States.
