Why? Why would you brag about this? What possibly could this do other than destablize Iran and push it into further violence and chaos?
Oh right, that is exactly what the US and Israel wants…
Make no mistake, Trump doesn’t give a fuck about the Iranian people, he and the other forces alligned here want Iran to turn into a Libya-type failed state situation.


Trump wants to put a puppet or quasi-puppet in place as happened in Venezuela, where the vice-president Delcy Rodriguez was allowed to keep power apparently in exchange for accepting that the Americans will seize oil tankers and give back only a share of the revenue.
No benefit or regime change for the people of Venezuela. Iran stops threatening Israel and probably the US gets some oil revenue.
Trump repeats what works for him.
