“Weapons of Mass Destruction” – The Trump-Bush Similarity – Then Iraq and Now Iran: There’s Oil There…

When you look at some of the news in relation to the recent strikes from Israel into Iran, at recent Trump ‘messages’ – you cannot help but wonder…

Who is using whom here?

When in the early 1990s the 2nd Gulf war started – and when finally in 2003 more strikes against Iraq led to Saddam Hussein’s capture and death, it was clear already that contrary to US-interests Hussein after decades of support from the US and oil prices to their advantage started to cut loose.

So, to the world the US announced that there were “weapons of mass destruction” in Iraq to be taken care of. And thus they went in. The results can be seen to this day: Iraq after more than 20 years is still struggling to get to its feet.

For Hussein in Iraq it was his ‘Swan song’: Iraq has too much oil for the US to ‘let him go’.

The same holds true for Iran.

The whole of these operations and war have been at least partly prepared for during the first stay in office of that sorry excuse for a man called Trump.

He cancelled the contracts with Iran that had been reached after 10 years of negotiation to control Uranium enrichment.

Netanyahu is proven to have needed support to stay in office in Israel. He has for many years driven the situation in Gaza to breaking point  – the age-old method of kings as well as dictators and other leaders of state to cover up internal problems with a war in foreign countries; in order to try and ‘unite’ people behind them again.

Not only does the Israeli people not want all of it!
All the cruelty and killing could have been prevented. Long ago!
And still, my greetings also to all the good people in the US, because there are more against Trump’s politics every day! And they protest, loudly and consistently.

But, here comes the ‘scoop’:

Should this war lead to the downfall of the present regime in Iran, the ‘olden times’ of suppression of Iran by the US will return:
Because, just as during the regime of the last Shah in Iran, the US received the lowest possible prices for oil and gas in return for their support.

Blackmail. Extortion. That’s what this is. Shame on Trump, Netanyahu and also Putin, should he support them.

The Near East Outrage: Israel’s Attack Does ‘Help’ … How…?

Destroy Iran’s nuclear programme to build nuclear weapons…? Helloooo…? Remember the times – of Trump’s first stay in office?

Did you forget that it was Trump who cancelled the contracts with Iran on controlling Uranium enrichment that had been reached with all concerned after more than ten (10!) years of negotiating?

Are Netanyahu and Trump now completely out of their minds?????

This region has seen so much suffering, so much death, destruction and killing – unbelievable! For money alone. Oil. Power. Nothing else.

In Los Angeles already we see that apparently Trump has taken Hollywood movies and his upbringing in a military school (school…???) to heart:
Just bring out the troops and call the attack…???

Shame on you all!!!

Mr Donald Trump, I need to ask this here and directly: “How old are you anyway?” The 12-year-old launching his army of toy soldiers, playing at hero games?

It would be ridiculous in almost all other cases.

It stares you in the face that this is just one of those cover-ups, cruel, useless, heartless and mean.
Both of them have ample need to cover up for other misdeeds, problems or, in Trump’s case, actual crimes: Bribery, sexual coercion, corruption – and he has been ruled guilty on 34 counts in front of a legal court of law of the US!

In this case I would spit in your faces should you ever have the luck to meet me in person.

Shame, shame, shame!


Author’s note: It should be clear from all my writing on these subjects that I aim at a carefully researched and as far as possible clear as well as judicious view.

I do not think that at this point especially, any of the parties concerned in this war, conflict which seems a eulogism really, could be called ‘not guilty’, innocent.

Do cut this short, it’s like this, people:

Whatever your colour, creed or conviction, you are not supposed to kill, torture or molest other people. Period.


2nd Author’s note: We all know that the first thing to die in a war is the truth. Don’t let them fool you. Use all the reliable sources you get. And remember to differentiate between what has been published – and what we sometimes learn years later. Therefore, think of that old principle:

Cui bono? Who benefits?


3rd Author’s Note: The history of this war is long. And Netanyahu, as I have recorded elsewhere already, from his first day in national politics there was known as a so-called hardliner. In Israel itself!
There that is short for those people advocating a cold and hard dealing with anything Palestinian. They, Netanyahu especially, do systematically send Israeli settlers into Gaza. Netanyahu has done so for many years and thus has driven the situation to breaking point.
That the Hamas is not to be excused for those recent cruelties and murders of hostages I mention to make it clear again. It should be a matter of course.

Once more:

    • Modern wars especially, always had long stretches of time before actual military actions started that would have allowed to negotiate for truces – and eventually peace.
    • The Iranian alleged programme for Uranium enrichment to build nuclear weapons for many years was meant for peaceful use only.
    • Trump already during his first stay in office cancelled those contracts that had been reached after more than 10 years negotiating! (s.a. above)
    • Iran during its long history due to its rich soil and huge natural resources of oil and gas has been target of all the ‘super-powers’ for more than 200 years, be that Russia, or France or Britain in the early days. Or the Soviet Union, France again and the USA in later times.
    • In Iran they have enough reason to fear attacks.
    • When we look at the Israeli secret service, the Mossad, we see that it is one of the most far reaching of all of them.
    • Every other secret service has learned from them. Too.
    • As a German I was raised with awe and at the same time a huge sense of responsibility to prevent such things happening again, extreme right-wing politics taking power here in Germany.
    • The Holocaust is a dreadful and cruel sign of human potential for baseness.
    • Yet, what also has become clear, is the fact that such baseness is human – and can be found anywhere in the world.
    • These recent attacks and the recent history of this war are one proof of many for that.
    • Two things also stand out almost like a big swelling on the human forehead:
      • Whatever your colour, creed or conviction, you are not supposed to kill, torture or bother other people. Period.
      • War is not a destiny! War is man-made – and can be prevented – if the weapon industry is for it…
