Trump's Necons putting “Ducks in a Row” for War with Iran


Over the last few weeks, a chain of certain events, announcements and major appointments in and around the United States government, should cause some to take pause and concern, when connecting all the dots, especially in the middle east. The lines are being drawn, all the ducks set carefully in a row, to wage out-right war with Iran.

The first red flag was the dismissal of Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State. Insiders, weeks prior, leaked that Trump was never happy with the Exxon CEO, disagreeing on many issues on American Foreign Policy. Our great deal maker president, wanted Tillerson to take a stronger stance on many situations around the globe. Where Tillerson leaned more towards diplomacy, the president rattled his sword.

Trump then replaced Tillerson with CIA Chief, Mike Pompeo, a dyed-in-the-wool necon, Islamaphobe and war-hawk. When appointed as CIA Chief, Pompeo announced that he would make the “CIA much more Vicious”, more vicious than an organisation renowned for brutal regime change, targeted assassination, drug trafficking, propagandising and extreme torture. This is also the war pimp who told the press he wanted to destroy Julian Assange.

Now we come to the neocon's neocon, John Bolton. I have expounded on this war-pimp at length in a previous Blog. That said, it is worth mentioning again, that Bolton continues to justify the millions of Iraqi deaths and thousands of American and allied soldiers sacrifices for this illegal war. Over the last ten years, he has made no secret that he desires regime change in North Korea and Iran. Bolton as National Security Advisor sits right next to the president, chanting WAR, WAR, WAR in Trump's ear.

There are three major events that have occurred over the last 3 weeks, that should set the alarm bells ringing. President Trump announces that he is “pulling out” of the Iran Nuclear Deal. Major US and Israeli military advisors told these “leaders”, Trump and Netanyahu, respectively, that Iran was following all the protocols of the agreement. This action set of a “cautious panic” across the middle east.

The most egregious event is the execution of 112 Palestinians and 13,190 injured civilians since the Great Return March protests started on Palestinian Land Day, March 30. While this mass murder was taking place, the United States moved their embassy to Jerusalem, with all the sparkle, pomp and circumstance of an English Royal wedding. In most of the world's eyes, this was a huge mistake, and ruined any chance of the US brokering peace between Israel and Palestine.

Days before the US embassy relocation, Crime Minister “Bibi” of Israel, shot bombs into Syria, claiming to be targeting and killing Iranian soldiers. This is a war crime. The Iranian military is in Syria at the behest of the Syrian government, battling ISIS and Jihad rebels. They're killing terrorists. Many pundits have claimed that this was Netanyahu's alert to the US, to “come join in on our war against Iran”. No doubt.

And, most recently, Mike Pompeo's little speech this week about Iran. He said, that, the US will “crush Iran with economic sanctions”, by and while, mealy- mouthing some “support for the Iranian people”. (That's what economic sanctions do, hurt the people) In no uncertain terms, the Secretary of State has declared “Economic War” on Iran, also spouting necon nonsense, that Iran is arming terrorists, namely Hezbola.


Do you see a pattern of behaviour here?

Iran has not invaded another country nor declared war on anyone for over 400 years. Since 2013,
they have followed to the letter, every protocol of the Iran Nuclear agreement. The Trump administration gave no factual reason for the withdrawal, except that (he) “did not like it.”Similar to the “repeal and replace” of Obama Care, the GOP had no problem repealing, but failed miserably on replacing it. Instead of pursuing a diplomatic solution, this administration declares economic war and threatens the EU, our allies, to stop trading with Iran.

It is no surprise that certain Israeli lobbies (APIC), Zionist billionaires, and far-right Evangelical power brokers, (pushing for Armageddon) donate millions to the GOP and certain establishment democrats. Add the top 5 weapon manufactures, donating billions over time to American politicians on all sides, fuels the Military Industrial Complex, feeding the US war machine. Combine the corporate MSM, pushing a false narrative, manufacturing the consent of the American people to go to war, based on lies, and there you have it, WW3.

During the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump bellowed several times to his zealot followers, that he would withdraw from Afghanistan. He also barked how the Iraq war was a waste of time and a terrible waste of American lives. Well, now into term 2, he has sent more soldiers to Afghanistan, has continued to bomb Iraq and Somalia, and is supporting Saudi Arabia with their genocide of Yemen. Trump has also bombed Syria twice, both illegal actions. As is well known, the man is a habitual liar.

It is a fact that the majority of the population around the world do not want more war, anywhere. It is the corporations that need war in order to make more money. It is Zionist Israel who want us to fight their enemies. It is the Religious Right, who want to bring on WW3, to bring on their prophecy of Armageddon. This is absolute lunacy.

We need to keep our eyes open, pay attention to these socio paths and confused people, who simply want the world to end.

Enough said.

  This is the first film I have ever seen that begins with a 10 minute `Overture'; the music is excellent and the composer, Max Steiner...
