Trump dropping F bomb bigger deal than actually dropping bombs
Trump says he would consider bombing Iran again, drops plan to lift sanctions
US President Donald Trump sharply criticised Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamanei, dropped plans to lift sanctions on Iran, and said he would consider bombing Iran again if Tehran is enriching uranium to worrisome levels.
Just consider where we are now as a civilisation.
Trump dropping the F Bomb is a bigger deal than the actual bombs he dropped.
This is where we are.
This is what we have become.
All Trump has done by bombing Iran is guarantee the Iranians will be sprinting to make a nuclear bomb.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
North Korea has a regime hostile to the USA.
North Korea has nuclear weapons. The United States does not bomb North Korea.
Iran has a regime hostile to the USA.
Iran does not have nuclear weapons. The United States bombs Iran.
The conclusion is if you can defend yourself with nuclear weapons the United States will not attack you.
What is the sensible thing for Iran to do?
When it comes down to it, this is a moral issue not a ‘common sense’ issue, sadly. As was documented in depth by Gareth Porter, both Khomenei and Khamanei have banned the building of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons, on the basis that they felt they could not be morally used.

In the case of Khomenei, this was the case even when Saddam Hussein- with the encouragement and support of the zionists and their American and European puppets- was firing chemical weapons at Iranian civilians and soldiers alike, murdering more than 20,000 and maiming hundreds of thousands more. When the head of the IRGC quite rationally organized a group to work on preperations to retaliate, Khomenei ordered that this be shut down. Khamanei has only intensified his admonishment of such efforts.
Personally, I disagree. Khomenei was quite right to say that it would be wrong to go tit for tat with Saddam, and target innocent Iraqi civilians. But using such weapons against areas of occupied Palestine that have been cleansed of their native population would be an entirely different matter.
What a wonderful resume Trump has including rape, pedophile, war mongering and insurrection. No wonder the right adore and idolise him.
Trumps quest to become a dictator is complete. Got rid of those that disagree with him, he owns the supreme court and his party sycophant s have bent over for him.
