See the below post for the 'con' side of the war.
This is the 'pro' side, from Childers:
...Iran isn’t a Trump vanity project waged to satisfy Israeli politicians. Iran is the single pressure point making peace possible on every global front simultaneously.
Nobody is describing the chessboard, even though all the pieces are sitting right there.
The “allies rebuke Trump” story gets 100 headlines; whereas the 22-country reversal gets a brief wire plug. Macron says “never” on Tuesday; France, Germany, and the UK sign on Friday. The Palestinian Authority condemns Iran and embraces Saudi Arabia while keeping studiously silent about the American and Israeli strikes. Trump’s Board of Peace deals with Hamas and signs up the United Nations while the world watches Iranian bomb footage.
The Financial Times declares Ukraine peace talks fizzled on Monday; Witkoff posts updates from active negotiations on Saturday, while a frantic Zelensky rushes to Washington experiencing very bad feelings. European voters stare at $9 gas and wonder why they’re still funding someone else’s war. NATO allies who pledged their Patriot batteries to Kyiv now realize those batteries might be all that stands between their own capitals and a demonstrated Iranian IRBM.
And nobody asks what any of it means. The corporate media won’t tell you any of this because it might make Trump look good. Trump isn’t talking either, because (1) it would tip his hand, and (2) he wouldn’t get decent coverage anyway, so why bother? But it is becoming crystal clear that Iran is the linchpin in a global puzzle box that includes forcing NATO to the table; ending the Ukraine war; brokering permanent Middle East peace; yes, protecting Israel; giving Palestinians a real shot with real money behind it; and all the while making historically good deals for America....
The long version is at the link.
We'll see how it plays out. Childers doesn't mention the "Israel Wild-Card" possibilities, perhaps for a good reason.
