http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/--100946Add together Princes secret mission, these appointments and the recent intervention in Yemen, and you have the possibility that Trump may be embarked whether consistently or wittingly on a serious conflict, perhaps even a war, with Iran that will embroil the United States even more deeply in the Middle East.
