Iran did not start the violence, the United States and Israel can end the war whenever they choose. Are you suggesting that the western coalition violently extort Iran?
For my taxpayer dollars, I'd rather see the US invest in an offensive to retake Odessa and Mariopol. Israel is a much bigger liability to the US than Ukraine is.
There is nothing better that could happen to Iran than to manufacture critical products of such value that global fear of their loss gives them a shield as well.
> There is nothing better that could happen to Iran
"Nothing"? Are you being serious?
Iran's entire modern history is defined by colonial exploitation for their material wealth, and you think that aligning them with their greatest oppressor would stop the violence? I'm in awe.
Iran could step up, and join the silicon shield, by working to replace the lost neon production from Odessa and Mariopol.
That would be an interesting first step in stopping the violence.
