Neocons are behind Trump's contradictory rhetoric about the war on Iran
Many neoconservatives - Bolton, Perle, Wolfowitz - remain active in shaping US foreign policy.
Their think tanks - American Enterprise Institute, Foundation for Defence of Democracies, etc. still staff US administrations.
Trump's mix of decisive success & looming escalation is to preserve an image of winning even as reality spins out of control.
