(RAD: It is important to realize that Alastair Crooke has a tremendous amount of experience in all things relating to the Middle East, so he brings important insights into this discussion.

Alastair discusses the important letter from Iran's Supreme Leader, which changes the dynamics in the region. Iran & the Asis of Resistance are seeking to dictate the terms & are in a position to do so.

Iran's attack on the US military base in Jordan has destroyed many US military aircraft & other resources. It is also important to realize that Trump has lost his credibility as a negotiator with Iran, Russia, China, and others.

Alastair makes it clear that it has become obvious that the objective of the US & Israel has always been to destroy Iran & not come to a peaceful agreement that would allow Iran to flourish. Iran, Russia & China all understand this. For 40 years, the objective of the US & Israel has always been to put Iran in a cage & not let them prosper. To make matters worse, this objective has also been to break Iran up, destroy them as a unified country, and to confiscate their resources. Iran has refused to bow down to these demands & built an effective military & economic strategy to resist the West. — RAD)
