Description
America and Israel have gone full Top Gun, raining down missiles on Iran terror targets. Meanwhile, Britain’s contribution is a polite statement about air defence. UK military bases are off-limits for US operations. The Prime Minister is acting more like a solicitor than a statesman, and the world’s watching. Ben Wallace, ex-Defence Secretary isn’t impressed. “No one can predict when a regime will fall,” he says, but warns that air strikes alone won’t spark revolution. Trump called for Iranians to “rise up”, but Wallace doubts it’ll be that easy. “They’re the Stasi of the Middle East,” he quips, “they know how to keep a lid on things.”
