💭   'Break-a-leg' (that old Mafia warning) - Trump has threatened Iran over an ultimatum that likely cannot be met

Politics

Trump's ultimatum to Iran? Colonel Doug Macgregor compares the Trump ultimatum to Iran to that which Austria-Hungary delivered to Serbia in 1914: An offer, in short, that 'could not be refused'. Serbia accepted nine out of the ten demands. But it refused one - and Austria-Hungary immediately declared war. On 4 February, shortly after his Inauguration, President Trump signed a National Security Presidential Memorandum (NSPM); that is to say, a legally binding directive requiring government agencies to carry out the specified actions precisely. The demands are that Iran should be denied a nuclear weapon; denied inter-continental missiles, and denied too other asymmetric and conventional weapons capabilities.
