Russia Helped Iran Target U.S. Forces. Trump Doesn't Care.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

For most of the post–World War II era, American strategy toward Moscow rested on a simple premise: Russia was an adversary, and actions affecting U.S. forces demanded a proportional response.

Deterrence only works when adversaries believe the boundary will be enforced.

Presidents disagreed about tactics—sanctions, diplomacy, arms control—but the underlying assumption held. Russian activity threatening American military assets demanded scrutiny and, when necessary, a proportional response designed to deter future attacks.

That assumption is now being tested.
