Depends on the audience. It might have been intended to convince a certain Shiite theocracy that he is just as bat$hit crazy as they are and they’d best negotiate while they have something left to negotiate with.
If this is really the case, then why did he try to explain it away by claiming he was a "red cross doctor" when the press asked him why he was portraying himself as Jesus? Why did he subsequently take the post down? Another 5-d chess move on the shiite theocracy? Undermines your argument entirely, but nevertheless I do admire the flexibility of your mental contortions. |
Just to clarify—he did or didn’t create the post?

The mental gymnastics needed to portray a dementia driven all-night twitter rant as some sort of 5-d chess psyop on the enemy is quite impressive.

Strategic ambiguity is often quite useful, whether calculated and staged, or just a consequence of one's inherent nature. |

Alternatively, actually being bat-poop crazy might be something the Mullahs will recognize and appreciate.
