While Trump is desperately trying to take credit for these developments, the ceasefire happened in spite of him, not because of his actions. I suspect that Russia, with an assist from China, made this happen. The real story is that Israel caved. Notwithstanding the massive pro-Israel propaganda campaign claiming that Iran was crumpling under Israel’s assault, Iran’s bevy of ballistic and cruise missiles wreaked havoc on Israel and caused significant damage. This is a major defeat for Netanyahu. Let’s hope he is quickly ushered out of office.I discussed the events of the weekend with Nima and with Judge Napolitano. I was not yet privy to all of the news that broke in the afternoon. I did, however, have a chat with Rasheed at 4 pm and was able to comment on the news of Iran’s scripted attack on Al Udeid air base in Qatar.
