This "liberation day" speech is epochal -- a potentially revolutionary transformation of both the post-WW2 U.S. international economic model and the post-1970s U.S. domestic economy. He wants to replace a U.S. model based on building alliance structures for global leadership

Editorial from the Jerusalem Post, a respected and relatively centrist publication in Israel, calling for the U.S. to take the lead in Iranian regime change and national partition (!). They call for U.S. security guarantees to Iranian minority groups willing to declare
