The United States and Iran entangled in the game of truth and lies

How long is Iran willing to play "liar poker" with the United States? . We could answer as long as Washington does not leave the game by punching the table. We want to ask who benefits from the game? Probably both, Iran is threatening to impose itself in the region and gain the fearful attention of the international community. A powerless community faced with the accelerated development of its nuclear program. As for Washington, he is demonstrating the need for his zone of influence to maintain strong ties with the United States, the only umbrella with Iranian ambitions, especially in a moment when Trump is trying to reveal his peace plan. "Deal of the century".

Saudi Arabia has fully understood the American message that it translates by following American initiatives with only a few remarks aimed at preserving the dignity imposed by the prerogatives of its sovereignty.

The international community in the case, looks on praying that the American and Iranian game does not turn to disaster. Reciprocal threats could, it is the risk, skid and turn into an unmanageable conflict between the United States and Iran with side effects on the whole region, including Israel caught between Hezbollah in the north, the Hamas and Islamic Jihad in the South. Israel exposed to the missiles of Gaza underlings Tehran.

Meanwhile producing countries including Russia are harvesting some fire chestnuts, as the price of a barrel of oil begins to take off after the attack on oil facilities in Saudi Arabia. An attack judged from Iran by the United States. The possible decline in the oil supply despite the US contribution has generated a small cooling breeze in the chancelleries of many oil-dependent countries in the Middle East.

On Sunday, a senior Iranian official warned that Tehran was ready for a full-fledged conflict with the United States, saying his country could launch sophisticated missiles at US bases and aircraft carriers at a distance of 2,000 kilometers. A form of response to the accusation launched Saturday by Washington against Iran after Yemeni Houthi rebels armed by Tehran have conducted drone attacks against the largest oil processing facility in Saudi Arabia with a dramatic effect on TVs: gigantic fires as had not been seen since Sadam Hussein.

Iran-backed Houthi rebels control Yemen's capital, Sanaa, and other territories in the poorest country in the Arab world as part of the Saudi-led coalition conflict. A struggle that has lasted since 2015 to restore the Yemeni government recognized by the international community.

The United States has shot down their cards accusing Iran. TheSecretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted: "There is no evidence that attacks came from Yemen" Pompeo summed up the situation: "Iran has launched an unprecedented attack on a global energy supplier ".

The Iranian foreign minister entered the game, dismissing as "unfounded the US accusations", suggesting that it was a pretext to fight back against the Islamic Republic. The felling of the cards should not stop there, the threats from both sides could become radicalized and the "liar poker" become an armed confrontation truth .
