In a lengthy post, Middle East analyst Abu Saleh argues that Iran is far from defeated and has prepared for a ground invasion, warning that President Trump will regret the decision to confront Tehran. He dismisses the possibility of a diplomatic resolution and criticizes what he calls a pattern of indecision and empty talk from the U.S. administration.
Abu Saleh, a Middle East analyst, published a lengthy analysis on Saturday evening warning that the war with Iran is far from over and that the United States is underestimating Tehran's preparations. He argues that Iran has booby-trapped large areas in anticipation of a ground invasion and that the Trump administration's pattern of indecision and empty talk has failed to achieve its goals. The analyst dismisses the possibility of a diplomatic resolution, stating that Iran will not accept a humiliating peace. He warns that Trump will regret the confrontation if the U.S. does not employ decisive action, and that Iran's historical resilience makes it a formidable adversary. The post reflects a growing view among some Middle East analysts that the current U.S. strategy is insufficient.
