Earlier this week it sure looked like President Trump was about to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities. He departed early from the G7 meeting in Canada. He met three times in the White House situation room with his National Security team. Then suddenly he announced that he would give Iran two weeks to surrender before deciding whether or not to bomb the Islamic state.
A superb job of backpedaling.

What led Trump to call off the attack on Ira's nuclear facilities? All the reports indicate that he was talked out of it by kooky Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon and Vice President JD Vance. They do not want Trump to get involved in any way whatsoever in the Israel-Iran conflict

Trump has demanded the unconditional surrender of Iran. He says he wants to give negotiations a chance.
Negotiations? So far, Iran has been playing Trump like a fiddle and will continue to do so, just like they did with Barack Obama. Col. (res.) Ronen Itsik, a former commander in the IDF's Armored Corps, notes that Iran is a cunning actor that manipulates negotiations to buy time, build capacity and continue its global subversion.
The Ayatollahs have no intention of surrendering. And Israel, which has not been a part of the negotiations, has no interest in stopping its attacks on Iran which has repeatedly vowed to obliterate the "Zionist entity."
Two weeks from now, will Trump give Iran another two-week extension? Will he cave in to the urgings of Carlson, Bannon and Vance?
To the Ayatollahs of Iran, Trump's backpedaling is a sign of weakness, not strength.

45-47 is a very astute negotiator. Let's give him a chance before we kill a shit load of people.
