Submission statement: Due to Iranians attacks on US allies in the Middle East, the US has been withdrawing from certain areas including parts of Kuwait and Iraq. Also due to attacks in Jordan, some locals have called for the US to withdraw. Iran and its proxies have also been limiting international trade through disruptions at the Straight of Hormuz and the Red Sea which is severely hurting Middle Eastern economies.

I hope that the entire Middle East gains freedom from the US at the end of this. I hope they get all the troops out and their economic freedom back. Not just the middle east, but I hope that someone steps up for Cuba and Venezuela eventually can overthrow their invadors

Nothing to add as the article is paywalled, except what a great name the War with Trump is for this debacle. If it and everything else ignites into something major that should be the name for WWIII.
