An Idiotic/ill Advised war started by two Raving Maniacs
NETANYAHU AND TRUMP must be made to pay in some way for the chaos they are creating around the world.
They are both racist and delusional to the tee. We believe we know what Netanyahu is about. We are not sure about Trump because he constantly changes positions. He is undoubtedly led by however I am not concerned about the Israeli racist but about Trump. He is the one with the power militarily and economically and is wielding it without a clear understanding of what he is doing and what he intends to achieve.
What was the purpose of the war apart from Netanyahu’s desire to control the region? There is really madness to be shared out there. Some people have even been blaming Iran, but Iran did not fire the first shot and Iranians have the right to defend themselves. One of the early reasons given for the attack on Iran was to prevent Iran from being able to develop nuclear weapons. This was quickly thrown aside since those two clowns a year ago declared to one and all that they had totally eliminated Iran’s effort at developing nuclear weapons. So, what happened during the year?
Have we asked ourselves that question? Then the idea of regime change was put up front. Why should Trump have the right to determine who should rule Iran. That is an issue for the Iranians. But American troops are sent to the area and the possibility exists that troops could be on the ground. That will not only prolong the war but create even greater uncertainty in the area and lead to thousands of dead Americans.
But let us be frank about this. If any country needs Regime Change, it is the US!
Why is Trump getting away with all this nonsense. It was good to see last Saturday millions of Americans and people in different parts of the world on the streets showing their disgust with Trump.
One hopes that countries outside of America that had large demonstrations will, by their actions, send a message to stay away from the madness of Trump and Netanyahu and refuse to join him in his attack on Iran and on trying to open the Strait of Hormuz.
I was particularly pleased to see the turn out in US cities which clearly demonstrates their dissatisfaction with one who wants to be a King. What they are hoping is that this will influence the mid-term elections in the US, and that it will at this time send a message to Trump and his acolytes.
But despite his low polls he is hoping through the SAVE ACT legislation to be able to control the mid-term elections. But he is such a weird character that I am not sure those monster demonstrations will mean what we feel they should.
He might even glory in them, seeing himself placed alongside Hitler and the other dictators. Remember he loves dictators! How is it possible for a country that sees itself as the land of the free elect such a person to the highest office in the land. That reference however is to the land we thought we knew, not to the real America that is built on Myths!
Trump might well be planning his next move to satisfy the public by victory somewhere, perhaps Cuba or even Greenland.
However, to carry out his ambitions about Greenland will get him into conflict with his NATO members, although that means little to him. He will of course continue to show his contempt for the Constitution and to stamp his image on the country and if given a chance, the world. When ICE is no longer needed at the airports where will he send them? He is putting his signature on the American paper currency.
His Treasury Secretary applauds it. “Printing his signature on the American currency is not only appropriate but also welldeserved.” He wants to be part of the ownership of the Gulf of Hormuz. He has already inserted his name on the John F Kennedy Centre for the Performing Arts.
The Gulf of Mexico to him is the Gulf of America. His reconstruction of the ball room at the White House is part of his fantasy world!
Increasingly the commentaries coming from outside the US are telling it like it is. One of the French Senate lawmakers, Claude Malhuret accused Trump of erratic leadership and fuelling global instability amid the on-going US war on Iran. He quotes from a Turkish proverb that says when a clown settles in a palace, he does not become King, it is the palace that becomes a circus. I like free-lance journalist Chris Hedges take on Trump.
Trump has no soul, he said: “The soulless exist in a state of insatiable self- worship. The idol they have erected of themselves must be constantly fed.
It demands a never ending stream of victims. It demands abject obedience and subversive publicity on display at Trump’s Cabinet Meetings. Those who lack souls have no concept of their own limitations. They feed off a bottomless and self-delusional optimism…”. The US under Trump has indeed become a “Rogue State.”
At this Easter time let us end with Pope Leo XIV, Christ “remains steadfast in meekness, while others are stirring up violence”.
