Foreign desk: Trump’s Iran Game-Changer
“Iran’s most important military proxy has begun taking credit for terror attacks committed nearly four decades ago,” notes The Tablet’s Lee Smith. Hezbollah is at long last owning up, for example, to the 1983 Beirut bombing that killed 241 US Marines. The reason: “to scare Americans now that Donald Trump has thrown the regime in Tehran off balance by changing the 40-year-old rules of the game.” By killing Qassem Soleimani, “Trump is holding Iran accountable for the actions its proxies take in its name” so “the leverage gained by helping America play make-believe is gone.” It is only through Western appeasement “that an obscurantist regime whose major exports are energy, pistachios — and terror, of course — appears like a formidable adversary”; now “Trump has knocked Iran down to its natural size — and likely made Americans safer from Iranian aggression than they have in fact been at any point in the last 40 years.”
From the left: Democrats’ Constructive Chaos
Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi calls the Democratic contest “the most unpredictable primary race ever,” as “a year-long process traditionally used to hone consensus among donors and media has achieved the opposite.” The New Hampshire primary, where, as Andrew Yang notes, a vote “traditionally has roughly 1,000 times the influence of a California vote,” is supposed to work like this: The “out-of-town press invades” the state “like a siege army, and leans into a presumed frontrunner until he or she wins.” But this year, says Taibbi, not even party elites are “close to agreeing on who might be the best choice to take on Donald Trump.” What happens “if voters decide to think completely for themselves, and pick a candidate not approved by the party or major media”? Well, “no one knows … since we’ve never seen it, at least not on the Democratic side.”
