Daily Mail: Reports " Trump says he is NOT talking to Iran and boasts the mullahs' economy 'continues to collapse' as he steps up war of words over tensions in the Gulf "
Lets Get Real:
One hopes there are backchannels between the US and Iran, it only needs an accident for all out war to happen between the two. Even at the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 JFK had backchannels with the then USSR. Of course un-official backchannel might be happening via the Swiss who have dealt with the US and Iran relationship since the revolution in Iran. The Tehran Regime needs to be VERY CAREFUL, it just might be in the interest of Trump for there to be a WAR BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES, it would place the very liberal Democrats in a tight spot, they could hardly be critical with the US fighting a WAR. One hopes that the religious theocracy in Iran has control of its forces and its terrorist allies, otherwise the Iran and the US could walk in to WAR.
