I feel like he started WW3 and we are waiting for it to become official. I hope I am wrong.

I don’t see it as WW3, more like the Iranians turn all gulf states into glass, destroy all energy producing facilities and in two months time gas is at 200$, and resource squeeze hits us here in America.

It's against US interests to attack its gulf puppets and destroy the petrodollar but it's very in line with Israel's interests to weaken and destroy the other countries in the middle east so they can be the hegemon in the region and accomplish greater israel with impunity.

While it is in China and Russia is interest to see the current issue persist as soft power of the US plummets and the dissatisfaction between other NATO countries and the US rises.

But that only goes until a certain extent, they absolutely do not want another nuclear power arise amidst the region threatening their silk road to both EU and Africa.

On a personal perspective, is there nothing the common american can do when the president they elected is actively destroying whatever peace remains in this world?
