Opinion | Iran Roared. Trump Blinked. - The New York Times

Bold statements by Tom Friedman. Some right, but some very wrong.

Yes, Trump screwed up. But, Iran is weaker now than before the war. Not stronger.

The agreement is bad because it weakens our leverage over Iran. Trump did not negotiate well.

Trump’s key error in the war is that he should have taken out Iran’s oil making and storage capacity. We needed to damage their power, water and transportation infrastructure. Also, we did not effectively deal with their drones.
