Renew Deal

19. Aside from the interventionism argument, I think it's better if the US stays out of it

Israel got themselves into this. Let them figure out what the goals are and how to get out of it. If the US gets involved, it's hard to get uninvolved. Besides that, I think it's hypocritical for dovish Trump to get involved in this situation. It undermines his agenda and message.

I think Trump only gets involved if he thinks it's an easy victory. For Iran, it's important to make it messy to scare Trump away.
