"He seems to be doubling down on the very same maximum pressure strategy that has gotten us to a near-confrontation," said Daniel DePetris, a fellow at Defense Priorities."If Trump’s objective here is to keep slapping sanctions on the Iranian economy until Tehran bows its head to all of Washington’s demands, then whatever off-ramp exists will quickly crumble."
"President Trump decided recklessly to withdraw from the nuclear deal," Susan Rice, the national security adviser under Obama, said on MSNBC Wednesday."It was in the wake of that that led to this escalatory cycle and where we are today — a very dangerous moment." But neither Trump nor his lieutenants have provided the public any information to support the latter assertion, which could be a vital component of the legal justification for the U.S. military killing a foreign military official without the authorization of Congress. Several top administration officials, including Pompeo and Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, were on Capitol Hill early Wednesday afternoon briefing lawmakers on the Soleimani strike and the larger picture of U.S.-Iran relations.
