Trump's strategy is not one of chaos, but of maximum pressure on the Iranian regime

Behind the words of the US president is something very readable."Even the threat of theater last Tuesday was necessary to bring Tehran to the negotiating table. What we are seeing is a high-level group of dark skills," said the American-Israeli lawyer Marc Zell.

Tel Aviv.More than a month after Israel's Operation Lion's Roar and America's Epic Fury, the outcry from some commentators on both sides of the Atlantic suggests that US President Donald Trump is losing control of the ongoing conflict with the Islamic Republic of Iran.policy for almost a decade: "What we are witnessing is a master lesson that ensures open strategic ambiguity and Donald Trump never defends all other pressures. He knows what to expect, it can seem like chaos. For someone who understands the way he negotiates, it is clear that there is something extremely calculated behind it, so the Iranian regime to the negotiating table was inevitable."

However, there is concern in the United States about the need for ground operations, with Americans understandably wary after two very difficult decades in Afghanistan and Iraq."The president himself has said from the beginning that he does not want a large-scale ground invasion. But that does not mean that there are no other options, starting with economic leverage. Thousands of special forces have set themselves a clear and limited mandate: to secure the Strait of Hormuz, to control oil exports, to neutralize key strategic targets, including the island of Kharg, through which energy ships pass through Iran." This, however, can affect domestic politics.According to Zell, "apart from Tucker Carlson and other loose cannons from the Mag wing, support in the Republican Party and American public opinion is steadily growing because a growing majority understands the seriousness of the Iranian threat, both on a security and economic level," the lawyer told Il Foglia.

The question remains how to manage relations between the United States and Israel: "The coordination between the two countries during this operation was of historical importance: joint planning, synchronized attacks, coordinated communication between Washington and Jerusalem. A real strategic alliance, in a wider regional structure: mediation between these Gulf countries has been attempted for years. The alliance is a major result achieved since the beginning of the conflict that began last June. especiallyto the country that supports more than 65 percent of the military expenditure of the Atlantic alliance, as the American president sends the first warning message to lead it to the negotiations.

However, the agreement has not yet been reached, and America's goals are very different from those of the Islamic Republic of Iran: "Trump's goal has not changed since the 1980s, even before his political career. Iran will not be able to create a nuclear threat. This red line is not debatable, and in this sense the military activity of Israel and America cannot be strengthened as long as it was above. a government that is not stable, since it has already fallen since the beginning of the conflict, whichIt started after the attack of Hamas on October 7, 2023, starting with Bashar al-Assad's attack in Syria.In the near future, Abraham, because the common goal of the Gulf allies - concludes Marc Zell - is to create things so that the stability of Iran can be controlled by the Iranian people.
