He definately doesn't care about casualties. He's said so. If he can't replace managemnt, he'll kill the company.

He'll go in, and I'd imagine our allies will help take Kharg.

They know he doesn't share and they don't want him running Kharg, nor do they want him blowing it up or letting it get blown up.

Kharg means more to our allies and their at homes than it means to Trump, so the risk reward proposition is entirely different, and more immediate and more consequential.

That's the stick, I think.
