Trump Says ‘I Guess’ When Asked if Americans Should Fear Iranian Attacks
22h 7m ago by lemmy.world/u/Redditsux in news from www.mediaite.com
I’m… honestly both in awe and aghast at how fucking blatant the regime is being about it. They’ve literally shut down the team that is in charge of addressing and categorizing security threats to the US originating from Iran immediately before starting a fucking war with Iran. Like… I just… what the actual fuck. I can’t even.
Between this and the documents leaked about their plans for the election, the intent couldn’t be more obvious if they put it on a fucking billboard. I hate that it comes down to such imbecilically stupid and petty US political bullshit like that, and that it’s killing so many people and fucking up so may other parts of the world… but seriously, I really think that was a massive part of their rationale here. It’s a distraction (operation Epstein fury), combined with creating an extremely obvious opening for an asymmetrical/terroristic threat that will be used as a justification for removing the electoral process. That’s the plan.
The world is nuked due to, "I guess". Fuck you.
Those who wage war have never needed to feel reprisals from it. They hide in their ivory towers and send your kids to die for their oil or whatever it is or has been throughout history (before that, I think land).
Imagine if they had to. If they had to lead the charge. Imagine how much war we would have if those who would choose to wage it had to put themselves on the front line. And/or their families. And/or the people they owe money and favours to. Would they be so quick to pick up a gun and fire shots themselves? I think we would live in a peaceful world (albeit maybe one with a lot of shit talking) if our leaders had to fight.
"I guess....I mean, YOU maybe. Not me. And not your kids, because we'll send them to Iran before anyone gets a chance to do anything here."
He wants an attack to justify further emergency powers
To prevent elections because without his Presidency, he's fucked. Cornered rat.
He won't rely on Iran attacking the US, he'll have an attack staged so he can blame Iran and justify canceling elections.
It's not a justification, though. The reason the Ukraine can do it is because it's written into their constitution. The US doesn't have that.
Not like that matters to Trump, though.
"Attack" in this case would be an economic attack. Considering the fact that we killed the Shia equivalent of a Pope, we're gonna get hit haaaaard economically. Yaaay.
