Victor Davis Hanson says the biggest test now is enforcement, arguing any Iranian violation must be met with an overwhelming response to keep the regime in check:
“The two chief issues I’m not as worried about. I think we know where the enriched uranium is. It’s sealed. We have great intelligence. We can bomb it again if necessary, and we can strike more of their industrial complexes if they cheat. And they will open the Strait of Hormuz because they’re nearly broke. The other concerns are the known unknowns. It’s going to be more difficult to ensure they’re not funding Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Hamas. That’s much murkier. We also don’t know exactly what they’re going to do in Lebanon. But the one thing that must remain ironclad is this: any time they violate the agreement, the response has to be decisive and disproportionate.”
