It boggles the mind, but I’ll go a step further.  If the U.S. is handing over millions and millions of sanctions relief, creating a short JCPOA time period, and allowing Russia and Iran to trade without sanctions penalty, I am flabbergasted.  No terrorism relief, no regional meddling (which is so serious), what about drone attacks?  What about missile attacks?  And hostages?  It appears the U.S. may be giving away the farm.  Why is the U.S. afraid of Russia and Iran?  And China?  The rest of the world is in for a very rough decade.  See “Russia says it has received US guarantees over Iran nuclear deal,” Maziar Motamedi, Al Jazeera, March 15, 2022.

Iran has been preparing an army (really, an air force) of drones, for itself to threaten and increasingly use, and to give to Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, and other bad groups.  This is an important reason that Bahrain, UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and others are binding themselves for security purposes to Israel.  They are applauding this move today, and most likely knew ahead of it.  “Iran blames Israel for destroying hundreds of Iranian drones – report,” Yonah Jeremy Bob, Jerusalem Post, March 15, 2022.

Iran’s drone war (thousands being produced) made the mistake of having a number of its drones in one place at Kermanshah, and Israel took them out on behalf of several GCC countries and itself.  The drone war is on, and Iran has responded with ballistic missiles against Erbil from where the Israel attack supposedly came.  See “Israel decimated Iranian drone fleet in February airstrike inside Iran – report,” Times of Israel, March 15, 2022.
