Military expert Shao Yongling posted an article writing,
"In the conflict between Iran and Israel, the most passive party is undoubtedly the United States: if it does not support Israel, Trump will be unable to give an account to the Jewish lobbying group at home; it is just a matter of time before Israel is worn down by Iran's missile attacks. But if it supports Israel, the escalation of this war will no longer be within America's control - don't forget that although Trump often emphasizes that the US military only targets Iran's nuclear facilities, in reality, once the war begins, the US will inevitably be drawn into it."
America may find it easy to start a war, but its subsequent developments are beyond its control. After all, Iran is a major country with a population of 94 million people and rich oil reserves. Once the war breaks out, more than ten million refugees will flood out. It will be a disaster for the world. Iran is the fourth largest oil exporter in the world, and such a war will inevitably cause a sharp increase in oil prices. Russia will benefit from it, making a fortune. All the sanctions that Western countries have imposed on Russia will be in vain. This is the most sensitive and least desirable situation for Western countries. Getting the US involved in an endless war without end is beneficial for the development of the East and the advancement of national reunification.
For the US to join the war against Iran is like trying to catch fleas with ten fingers, not only failing to catch them, but also getting all ten fingers tied up.
Trump's indecision is because he is caught in a dilemma of advance or retreat.
