"UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER" 바카라� is what U.S. President Donald Trump has demanded from Iran as the conflict between Israel and Iran reaches a tipping point. The move is anything but subtle, considering that the U.S. is not a part of the conflict and sits an ocean away. Trump now seems oddly eager to referee a conflict that is not his, on a continent that is not his either.

The world stands at a precarious juncture, with irony bleeding through global diplomacy and all involved leaders advocating reckless display of bravado.
