4. No, gotta disagree with you. There is no possibility of diplomacy in two weeks.

The rest of what you said I agree with.
Trump has proven to the world that the US will not honor diplomacy, treaties, memorandums of understanding, or any other agreement.
There is no line that Trump hasn't crossed. Take a look at the firefighting tanker planes that Canada supplied for use in the wildfires. It was bad enough that one was disabled by a reckless drone operator, now Canada must wonder how any reciprocity can exist in times of crisis when the US government will not commit to providing relief to aid one its own states. Slap some more tariffs and restrictions on trade. And Intelligence? Our recent track record leaves no doubt of how trustworthy we are.
Iran and the rest of the world do not need bombs and terrorism to destroy the US. We are the fish in the bowl. All anyone has to do is drop in a cheeseball and watch what happens.
