Is anyone else privately concerned about the Iran war stalemate and speculating the potential outcomes? In a way I'm impressed by most people worldwide to largely ignore it and get on with life, which is encouraging. But I can't see a good outcome for the Iranian mess as it seems to be either a major escalation comparable to Iraq, or effective defeat and an emboldened Iran that knows it controls the straight of Hormuz and can do whatever it wants. Either outcome has enormous implications, and none are good. And there's seemingly no other option in between. Except maybe a hail mary Iran and the US actually do agree to a deal and everyone slinks off and pretends the last five months didn't happen.
Funnily enough I think the hail mary option actually as a chance of happening. Low, but more than zero.
Any other thoughts? Yeah, I'm aware that two major Middle East incidents were triggered by GOP presidents. It does make me pause.
