I do hope this is all posturing on the part of the U.S. I don’t especially want to see yet another country with nuclear weapons, but all reports that I see suggest that Iran is quite a long ways from acquiring them.
In the meantime, talk of the US recruiting Iraqis to invade Iran has this weird deja vu quality that’s too perverse to even contemplate.
