I think we have gone the wrong way with Iran, and that has opened the door for this to happen (whether they actually did do it  or not). I think we should be opening direct lines of communications with them rather shutting them down. We need to be doing that in a lot of places. Hardball diplomacy only goes so far when there there is no "carrot" of negotiations and workable solutions dangled in front of the other nation. Lack of that only breeds resentment and eventual reprisal.

Iran, the Saudis and Israel need to be brought to a table to resolve their issues. These are the three great powers in the region right now and I don't believe their differences are irreconcilable. Moreover, I think it is in our best national interest.

Almost like if we could have a deal in place with them, worked out over a period of time and including our allies, that would keep iran being watched and communication open?

That's a novel approach!

Sounds crazy, but then so does saying DJT was wrong about how to handle virtually every foreign policy move he has made since being elected.
