    Trump and the US’s current target is the Soviet oil reserves as it has been from day one. The conflict in Ukraine was a result of Western oil companies trying to meddle with Soviet Era oil blocs in the Black sea, a fight that is still ongoing today. The US already controls Arabian oil, not Iran’s, and if they can successfully replace Iran’s government with a puppet, then it will be easier to break into the Soviet Union from the Southern Asia boarders.

      Sure yeah I. Don’t disagree too much with anything you’ve said there.

      I just think Trumps skills at war is less than Putin’s skill at spycraft.
