Everything being done by the Trump admin now to push the “turn on Israel/Netanyahu” line is pure misdirection

SS: This misdirection is aimed at re-establishing the element of surprise ahead of the imminent attack on Iran, which requires both a sustained air bombardment and a ground operation at the nuclear sites.

For the attack to have at least some chance of success, it is essential for the element of surprise to be re-established. The fake “negotiations” in Oman with the Iranians, the demotion of Watlz, the whining about “neo-cons” like in the Saudi Arabia speech, the fake “defeat” against the Houthis and all the fake “leaks” about how Trump is really very angry and feels betrayed by Netanyahu, are all intentionally designed to create a feeling of passivity among the Iranians and the belief that the attack may not actually happen.
