Yes. But if we do that, we must be prepared to fight. They are refusing to give in, and are escalating, testing us. They attacked ours and our allies’ ships, they took out our drone, they just took out half of the Saudi oil capacity - and that’s a country which, historically, we’ve been protecting... The pressure is working, but, pressed into a corner, even a weaker adversary may become dangerous. And this comes at a time when we are tired of wars, and the political resolve just isn’t there.
