"It was America that has started the war. Therefore, they should accept appropriate reactions to their actions," he said.
"The only thing that can end this period of war is for the Americans to receive a blow that is equal to the blow they have inflicted. Afterward they should not seek a new cycle."

Seems pretty clear that the US and Iran are at war now, and, as I said on Thursday evening, the gates of hell have been unleashed. May whatever God you believe in have mercy on us all.

1. Accept?

Not likely.

Trump's response will be to escalate. It's the only way he knows.

Scorched earth policy.

Doesn't matter to him if it is earth in Iran or the US. Scorched is good, to him, no matter where.

2. After the Iranian response, the Russians may get involved.

I can see Pootie telling Dump that if he goes any further, then the Russians will fully ally with Iran. Possibly also China.
