What is Trump/Israel's endgame here?
I think they did it to perpetuate the US petrodollar. Our country is going bankrupt, and the petrodollar helps stave it off temporarily.
The alternative is that AIPAC has so much influence that they dictate our foreign policy to the extent that we started the Iran war just to appease them.
It might be a combination of those two things. I think and hope more of the former and less of the latter.
I do not think stopping terrorism or freeing the Iranians or spreading democracy is an objective at all.
