Trump and Middle East puzzle

By Zahra Hosseinpour

The United States proved in 1983 that it had a tactical advantage, but Iran proved that it had a more wide-ranging strategy-as it has demonstrated repeatedly throughout the years. The next four U.S. Presidents avoided a military showdown with the Islamic Republic, even as its strategic advance across the region deepened. The risks and potential complications were deemed too great. President Trump has said that he, too, has no desire for war, yet he started the new year with a drone strike that killed General Qassem Suleimani, the mastermind of Iran's expeditionary Quds Force, while he was on a trip to Baghdad. In this book, we try to address some of Trump's most important challenges with Shiites in the Middle East.
