US should engage in a meaningful dialogue with Iran, to end the current hostilities in the Middle-East.
Insisting on a regime change, or the adoption of a democratic system of governance, or attempting to control
"oil" resources (which is their bread and butter), may only produce poor returns. The author believes that these
objectives, do not have any significant influence, on US Geo-politics.
In 2018, Iran refused to end their ballistic missile production, citing local threats, and US withdrew from JCPOA.
The unprovoked US-Israel invasion in 2026, did prove, that the claims of Iran, are indeed valid.
The JCPOA was created by "Americans and Allies" to safeguard the prosperity of the entire Middle-East region,
as a whole. It may not be the most wonderful thing in the world, but it achieved the limited success, for which it was designed.
Prime Minister Netanyahu, may not have liked JCPOA, because it was not created "for Israel, by Israel, of Israel, to expand Israel...".
To eliminate the current hostilities, US should go back to the drawing board, and chalk out its "own" geo-political objectives,
and of its allies in Middle East (without the influence of Prime Minister Netanyahu).
The author of the article believes (to the best of his memory lane), that the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated,
that the range of Iranian ballistic missiles is limited (to about 1000Km), and will not reach Europe.
Discussions about elimination of Iranian ballistic missiles, at this stage, is a moot point.
A meaningful dialogue should pursue a Win-Win strategy, by setting limits on the range of the ballistic missiles,
and export controls, and revive the earlier understanding reached, that a Nuclear Middle-East is not good for anyone,
in the region.
