All right, so the fighting in the Middle East is shifting, and we need to shift with it, and change our strategy to reflect the military reality.
Let’s see if we can analyze it, and find a new move.
Our allies are, finally, getting into to a fighting position. The Arabs, or rather, the Sunnis are pushing to be at the table, in terms of real combat or in the dealmaking. At the same time, the Iranians and the Russians are trying to drive wedges in between our alliances.
The best way to keep our alliances is to LISTEN to their ideas and motivations.
They want to fight, some of them at least, and have a place at the negotiating table. Let’s do that, include them in the fighting and give them a place at the negotiating table.
This will effectively counter the moves our enemies are making.
So to the negotiations themselves. They are, so far, unsuccessful. Why? Because the Iranians feel they have the upper hand. They have the initiative, and we are being reactive to their moves.
Still we are countering their moves, but they are right, that we are being, mostly, reactive. Except they haven’t seen our work to make a broad coalition against them.
That is a move, that will make our hand much stronger.
Just make sure, that our allies are ready and able to stay in the fight, and won’t stop in the fighting all of a sudden.
So the aim of the war is to gain an upper hand, so that we can apply pressure in the negotiations.
Well done, so far, but Mi6 are right (I have heard their analysis) we need to go from being reactive to being proactive. As in a chess game, take the initiative. It’s not only about raw strength, it’s more about playing the game to our advantage.
The Iranians are a VERY worthy adversary. I know, I have fought them once (and won). But this time, they have their back against the wall, so they are much more hard in their stance.
And just to be clear, these people are more alike us than different. They are as much rebels against western decadence as we are, so we have much more in common than we think.
That is really the paradox in this war. We actually both fight the same problem; western corruption and lack of morals.
G-d bless the peace we can ultimately find, may we prevail.
