Wetin Iran go do?

Wetin Iran go fit do? BBC Jeremy Bowen analyse di mata.

E say, di Middle East region feel l;ike say e dey on di edge and di big question na wetin Iran fit to do.

E almost wan be like say Iran dey find dia trouble to to hit back, in di knowledge say dia retaliation go dey far stronger, and backed by di Americans.

If you look at it from di Iranian point of view, di US Navy reinforcing Israel for di Mediterranean dey dia, Israel also dey in a mood to do damage to im enemies, and thinking say dem fit dey in a position to reshape di Middle East.

Na time for tough decisions for all di participants in dis. Wetin Iran go do, wetin Israel go do, and Hezbollah, wey don record ogbonge losses including dia leader own – wetin dem go do?

One thing Iran watchers and some Israelis dey warn about na say if di so-called ring of fire – Iran build-up of allies and proxies wey dem don form over many years – now dey show say e get comma, and e no dey effective, e leave di question of whether dem fit decide to develop a nuclear weapon.

E dey possible – say dem dey close to di technical knowledge. If so, and di Americans discover am, den e fit lead to a US bombing campaign against Iran. Dat na di kind wider scenario wey pipo dey worried say dis kasala fit lead to.

Wetin seem to be di rules of di game don go. Nobody know where things dey go, and for Israel allies, wey continue to call for a ceasefire and a diplomatic solution, dat level of unpredictability and insecurity full of dangers and possible mistakes.
