Trump would say Iran has been increasing aggression in the region, recently attacking oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman, creating huge problems for transport of oil. Theyd also say that they are fomenting instability in the region by supporting groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis and they must be stopped.

Iran would say that the Trump government is being extremely unreasonable and putting an economic chokehold on the country. They withdrew from the nuclear agreement but expect Iran to adhere to its terms anyway while still being subject to sanctions which make adherence impossible. It's absurd. Iran would say it's support for Hezbollah is the support of a popular Shia movement in Lebanon, part of the main government structure and in Syria, theyve been invited in by the legitimate government. They;d probably downplay their relationship with the Houthis, but note that they have a better claim to the seat of power in Yemen than the Saudi puppet government. They'd also deny responsibility for the oil tanker incidents in the region.

what does Iran hope to gain from attacking tankers? Do they think, if we fuck with a few unarmed cargo ships, they'll drop the sanctions? this makes no sense

well, its far from clear that they are responsible, but the theory goes that since they are prevented from exporting petroleum, they want to create pain for the other players in the market since their strategic location on the gulf of oman allows them to disrupt traffic

the sanctions are greatly harming the Iranian economy, and they are further stressed by their european partners bowing to US pressure even though they publicly stand by the Iran nuclear agreement. this means none of the economic benefits that were promised have been delivered and, in fact, things are getting worse. the theory is that iran wants to attack oil tankers to disrupt trade and harm the other gulf oil players, who are iranian opponents, but im far from convinces of this reality

i dont really buy it, but the theory goes that they believe the us is war weary and wont escalate to full fledged war. they also believe that they can maintain plausible deniability by doing these sneak attacks on commerce coming through the gulf, further hampering the push to war since there is no agreement on responsibility. the idea being that if they cause enough havoc to the global oil trade, the major players in the region will feel enough pain that theyd prefer the negotiating table to the status quo. now i dont really think this sounds believable, but this is what many people are saying

people whispering in Trumps ear that a costly engagement in the ME will strengthen his 2020 candidacy, giving a 5-10% boost from people who feel they must support the potus during conflict.
