In the Middle East, Trump abandoned the only reasonable policy and got into "blood and sand." Columnist Maureen Dowd writes about this in her column in The New York Times.
The article was published under the heading "Trump, the new hostage of Iran."
Daud compares the US president to two unsuccessful scammers from O. Henry's story "The Redskins' Leader" who kidnapped the mayor's 9-year-old son to shake off $2,000 from his father, and as a result were forced to pay extra so that the mayor would rid them of their offspring.
"Trump has abandoned the only good Middle East policy: to avoid the mirage of quick victories and to plunge back into "blood and sand," as he disparagingly called it in his first term. When he ran in 2016, Trump called the invasion of Iraq was a "big, fat mistake" that destabilized the Middle East and cost too much — in money and people. But, seduced by the disgusting Bibi (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. — EADaily), he got into the blood and sand," the author writes.
"Well, Trump will have to pay extra now..." — political commentator Vladimir Kornilov comments on the picture of the day.
