One big difference is that back during the Suez incident, when the nations involved signed the ceasefire, no matter the reason, you could at least assume they’d stick to it.
In comparison, everybody on the entire planet - except his cult members, natch - assumes Trump is a backstabbing liar. Any deal with him is worthless before pen touches paper. What reason do the Iranians have to negotiate, when it’s entirely possible he’ll tell his DUI hire to blow up the plane with the ambassadors on the way home?
Sure seems this way. This thing has barely begun and I expect things to get much, much worse.
