TRUMP FORCED IRAN TO THE TABLE — THIS ISN’T NEGOTIATION | Aaron Cohen on Cuomo

Peloni:  This is an important discussion between Chris Cuomo, Israeli Special Ops veteran Aaron Cohen, former CIA Special Agent Tracy Walder, and former political prisoner and NYU International Affairs Prof. Kian Tajbakhsh.  Of particular note, they address the fact that we can not substitute the notion of victory, which is a political outcome, with operational achievements, no matter how great these achievements might be.  As I have noted before, if the terrorist laden, psychopathic regime currently in power in Iran outlasts the Trump administration, all that will have ultimately been achieved in this war is a delay in Iran’s ability to dominate and defeat the West.  No amount of discussion can ignore this fact, and arguably, if this is what we will come to see at the end of Trump’s term, ie that the IRGC remains in power, the fairly articulated complaints which Trump leveraged against past presidents will come to be fairly articulated against Trump, himself.  This terrorist regime in Iran must be removed.  That is the only measure of victory which can be claimed in Iran and failing to do so could only be understood to be fairly claimed by the blood thirsty Iranian regime, itself, should it be allowed to remain in power.
