US President Donald Trump laid out the conditions for a peace agreement that he is ready to negotiate with the Iranian regime. At the same time, he is re-enforcing the US military presence in the Middle East to be ready for a ground operation.

If the Iranian regime accepts Trump’s conditions, Iran’s future as an economic power would be bright, but its ability to support terrorism and to intimidate its neighbors would be gone. On the other hand, if they insist on rejecting his conditions, all indications are that Trump intends to impose a military solution from which the Iranian regime cannot recover.

So, the choice for the Iranian regime is simple: prosperity or annihilation.

To most governments, this choice would be trivial, but the Iranian regime isn’t a normal government. Their goal isn’t the prosperity of their people. Their goal is quite different, although many people, especially in the West, refuse to see it.

We refuse to see it........
