Trump’s Iran dilemma — To bomb or not to bomb could ruin his presidency: Marwan Bishara

Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara highlights the persistent Western double standards surrounding Iran’s nuclear program. He emphasizes that while morally and ethically this appears unfair—nuclear arms are acceptable for US allies but forbidden for adversaries—states act primarily out of self-interest rather than ethics. Western powers, he notes, prioritize their own strategic interests, supporting allies like Israel while opposing nuclear capabilities in rival states. Bishara suggests that the current dilemma faced by President Trump—whether to strike Iran militarily—reflects the complexity of the situation. Despite Trump’s earlier campaign promises to avoid new conflicts in the region, Bishara warns that a military intervention could entangle the US in a prolonged and costly conflict, similar to past wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
