He seems not to know even himself what he is aiming at. Only yesterday in front of the world’s cameras he said it in so many words. Yet, it is abundantly clear that all of this is just another desperate attempt to divert attention from his problems in regard to internal affairs and his criminal record.
A person like the Secretary of Defense of the USA, Hegseth, even has the unspeakable impertinence to state: ~’no politically correct war; no UNO mission, no plans for the time after. Just plain war.’
A ripe pair.
Two of a kind.
The conflicts between Israel and Palestine and the additional forces stationed in the north and the south, the Guerilla troops of Hezbollah and Hamas, as well as the ‘support’ by the USA:
They are decades old!
Anyone with an atom of reason and smartness would have shied away from such a stupid and cruel step.
But someone like the present president in the US lacks that. What he is interested in is his own position, his power and – the future power in the US.
His affinity for Putin and his love of a dictatorship that allows him unbridled power and say-so without any limitations are legendary.
The New York Times as well as the Washington Post* (when it still was independent) reported on both these facts:
-
- NYT: Trump’s ideas in regard to Putin here.
- The Pulitzer Prize committee’s information on awarding the prize to both newspapers regarding the connection and election influence in 2016 here.
- Trump initiated the storming of the Capitol in January 2021.
- He was ruled guilty in front of a US court on 34 counts of bribery, corruption and molestation.
- The current Israel president Netanyahu has suffered from lack of support of his ‘subjects’ and the parliament as such for his cruel politics towards Palestinian territories, the Gaza strip and West Bank, going on for almost a decade now.
- At this point his actions that started this escalation are another desperate attempt to keep his position as long as possible.
- In this respect it is no surprise too, that the talks to Trump were not public and also not disclosed in any way.
- The weapons’ industry in the US is the largest and most powerful. Previous presidents were pressurized and even murdered because they tried to limit their profits. (J.F. Kennedy being the most prominent.)
This war is outrageous, it is exactly the same type of action that Putin reverted to when attacking Ukraine, according to international law.
These attacks have to stop!
It will just lay the whole region to waste and land it in a war for years to come.
When we take all these facts together, and use that age-old principle of ‘cui bono?‘, ‘who benefits?‘, some things become abundantly clear.
Shame on such a government as the present US presidential administration.
