With Trump’s attitude towards China, these words will tell you all you need to know about why Iran is such a target…

Bremmer trying to portray this unilateral military attack/decapitation as sensible/inevitable.

“Well, Imperial Japan had no choice since America cut off its oil supply…”

Such Bullshits sound more like coming from the Left’s perspective. I regret taking such a long time to listen to this all talks bullshits but no effective advice or solutions. If it’s not Trump, non of the awful situations in the world would be changed. China and Russia and their Axis of Evil will grow more powerful and post more threats to the world. And those global organizations would still be very corrupted and useless, being infiltrated and bribed by China and Russia.
I used to dislike Trump. And his cocky and unpredictable words still make me headache sometimes now. But he has proved he is a real leader with abilities to solve problems. His come back in term this time is really stunning and impressive. His decisiveness and taking actions solved what the Democrats and Biden government can’t solve for years. He and his strong government team has weakened China, Russia and its Axis of Evil.
Yes, he started some targeted wars toward the evil regimes but it’s the way to reach peace, and with minimum damages. The people who suffered from the evil regimes are happy that Trump saved them. That’s good enough. Or just tell me, do you, the Left, have a better solutions than endless one-sided negotiations with the terrorists and the evil regimes? We should be happy for the people who are freed from them, and it is indeed like Trump said, the US can only help but it’s still up to the people of those countries to decide their own destinies. Trump was just helping to give them that chance. Trump has earned my respect with his abilities to solve problems and take down the evil regimes. And I respect that he’s also loyal to his country. He is really taking efforts to make America great again and to protect the safety of his people.
I’m very sick of the Left around the world, especially from the US, who like to pretend they’re more noble than others, but they are simply giant babies who can’t face the realities and just with all talks all day long but no actions to actually solve the problems and with delusional ideals which can never be fulfilled. The only actions they do is marching some silly protests against the actions Trump take to take down the evils, making the evil regimes smiles with you, the Left, being useful idiots helping the evil regime to sabotage the democracy. If you, the Left, can’t actually do something to solve the problems, then just shut up, let Trump and his team do their works. For what I see, he is more visionary than any of you, the Left. The Left is actually the short -sighted ones and a bunch of hypocrite. Salute to Trump!

You guys need to get a grip. Do you not think that the fact Trump was a business man (not a politician), with knowledge and financial ties between both high and low individuals/ corporations, had no interest or insight regarding the real world issues and individuals involved in illegal activity? He doesn’t care about what you think of him. He is on a mission to stop something bigger than we’ve been told about previously, which is the fact that for 1) Cartels run Mexico and multiple other countries and have suppliers/ producers all over the world, including the United States; 2) Russia has been working closely with Iran because Iran manufactures their “Yellow Cake”, aka, 60% concentrated Uranium that no other country would dare to produce. The supply is then shipped to Russia for the production of nuclear weapons. Russia knew how much Iranians hated Americans, and therefore, found a perfect country who would be willing to produce the supply they needed to make a product. Why not concentrate the Uranium in Russia? Well, I don’t know, maybe because it poses a MASSIVE risk of radiation and imminent destruction to the people.

It would be astonishing if the Iranian people could have government of the people when Trump is a dictator himself. He’s mainly interested in getting richer and staying in power. He’s needs to be the winner and the one in control. Letting others have power is so dangerous in his little narcissistic mind.

So little emphasis here on the Mossad presence in the Iran protests Israeli intervention in Trumps decision making, including leveraging nuclear capabilities they denied even having, and the girls school that Israel targeted killings civilians.
Alongside lopsided misinformation about the Iranian perspective, the info presented clearly is western forward, promoting the Middle East getting disrespected again.

Its about the RIGHT TO BE. Why US gets to decide whose government is worth staying or not, its their internal matter. This recent murder of supereme leader in IRAN ( & all that in gaza) is a proof that US and Israel are the Supreme leader of the globe and no one wil ldo anything. Only north korea, china , Palestine and russia have shown their disappointment and opposition to what USA did to Iran. No one else. why? IF YOU DONT AGREE TO WHAT US ( hidden ISRAEL) WANTS- YOU WILL BE BOMBED. Why? Who gave them the rights. They themselves have Nuclear stuff and the other countries which ” US/ISRAEL” dont seem fit have, then its a GLOBAL ISSUE, why? ( and when i say israel or US its not the innocent civilians, but the dirty minds irrespective of the religion)

Why is Bremmer straight out lying? Khamenei has NOT been refusing negotiations with the US. They were under active fucking negotiations before they were bombed, and all credible reports say Iran was making huge concessions, bigger than expected. What a load of propaganda meant to increase consent. Clown.

Why don’t we elect leaders who choose to have open rounds of philosophical debates? Why don’t we debate metaphysics and world views and the service to others versus service to self philosophical paths? Why don’t we conduct rounds of debates that are televised and pondered? Why don’t we talk about religions, doctrine, dogma, narratives. Why are we still so violent, arrogant, power over others seeking peoples? Why don’t we find out the depth at which our our philosophies diverge? We need to do this inside our countries and between countries. Why are we beholden to those who embrace violence? We need deeply rooted yet deeply open minded people of strength to listen and seek understanding to find a new way forward. This action is so so outdated and relies on such old energies. Isn’t it time to evolve?

Whitewashing this war of choice is not a good look TED. This war is a distraction from the Epstein files, domestic discontent with DHS/ICE, and failed domestic economic agenda and an excuse to militarize our elections all while protecting the petro-dollar and insuring ongoing profits for the military/prison industrial complex. Operation Epstein Furry joins a long line of Republiklan war mongering.
