kentuck's JournalFor Iranians, is America still the "Great Satan"?
Only this time, America is really the "Great Satan". They murder young girls with their bombs and destroy the water supply for dozens of towns and villages. Their mad leader does this and the American people do not stop him. He can do whatever he wants to the "terrorists" in Iran.
But, the Iranian people will not forget. Even if it is a hundred years, even a thousand years, they will not forget what the Great Satan has done to them.
The right hand of the devil will pay a heavy price.
"Vladimir, is there one more favor I can do for you?"
"Well, now that you mention it Donald, there is one thing I would wish for at this time".
"What would that be, Vlad?"
"Well, as you know, we are bogged down in Ukraine and we are having a difficult time financing that 'special operation'. The price of oil is so low that we cannot meet our needs. If you could find a way to raise the price of oil, it would be greatly appreciated.'
"No problem, Vlad. I will find a way to shut down the Strait of Hormuz and drive the price of oil sky high."
"How would you do that," Vlad asks?
As you know, everything I have done while I have been in office has been for the benefit of Mother Russia. I will start a war with Iran. I will bypass Congress. And they will shut down the Strait of Hormuz."
"Thank you, Donald. That will permit us to continue our slaughter in Ukraine."
Does anyone think they have a plan?
We go into Iran and kill their leaders and drop bombs on school girls and destroy everything. For what objective and at what cost? They never advised anyone, except for maybe Putin? We have a bunch of incompetent juveniles playing games with weapons of mass destruction.
They have no plan. They have some new military gadgets and they want to try them out in real time. People die from their decisions.
It is criminal. Not just toward Iran and its people but to the American people who will die and sacrifice for this violent regime.
We do not know where we are headed? We have a driver who has no directions. He listens to the last person that talks to him. America is in a dangerous predicament.
Are we entering into a world war?
Reportedly, Russia and China are supporting Iran? But as we all know, truth is the first casualty of war. However, it does not seem like the real world that we can start it anytime we wish and be able to stop it at any time we want?
After their religious leader has been assassinated, along with most of his advisors and successors. Reportedly, their navy has been destroyed and much of their infrastructure. After America bombed a school building that housed girl students, and killed about 175 of them with a bomb, would these folks want to sit down and talk peace with Donald Trump? Did America bomb a water plant that many villages and towns depended on for water? That is an international war crime.
When will the hostilities end? When everything in a country larger than the state of Alaska has been blown to oblivion? Is it possible to have that many bombs?
He's their boy. They need to talk to him. Before we are stuck somewhere that no American wants to be. We are not ready for Armageddon.
Are you over-whelmed with all the lies, the crimes, the corruption, the incompetence, the violence..?
Perhaps the anger is misdirected?
It is easy to blame Donald Trump. After all, he is leading the crime and corruption. He is lying this country into a war which may not be so easy to extricate ourselves. We have become a pariah on the world stage.
But it is the Republicans that give him legitimacy. They do not hold him accountable for anything. MAGA Mike Johnson is the most incompetent and criminal Speaker we have had in a very long time, perhaps forever.
But, it is the voters that give the Republicans permission to screw this country and to destroy our freedom and democracy. They must hold their elected Representatives accountable.
But nobody holds anybody accountable. So most of us are simply overwhelmed by the firehose of lies and propaganda. It's difficult to see any progress.
If you are overwhelmed by it all, welcome to the club. I don't know what else we can do except wait until the election and hope the people will come to their senses?
When everything is about Democrat vs Republican...
There is no right or wrong. There is only my side or the wrong side.
There is no legal vs illegal. It is all just a partisan witch-hunt.
There is no moral vs immoral. They all do it.
There is no truth vs lie. It all depends on who is reporting it.
There is nothing your side can do to persuade the other that they are wrong in any way.
In my opinion, this is where we are as a country. Propaganda has been used very successfully to divide the nation. Who knows where it will all end?
America is so numb to the insanity and violent rhetoric of this dictator in the White House...
...that they would barely notice if he managed to start a World War or if he was to drop a nuclear weapon?
Their senses have been numbed by the constant propaganda of the state-run media.
Unless it affects them personally, it may as well never happened.
Even then, they distrust the "fake news" and stand behind their God-chosen leader.
It is a sad situation that Republicans have nurtured and bragged about.
Did Trump fire Noem because he was "jealous"?
That she had a large luxurious bed in her personal jet, that was far superior to his rest area on Air Force One?
He can't wait to get his new Qatari jet.
Or did she just become too much of a political liability for him?
Bombs are dropping, missiles are flying, people are dying, yet...
We don't know if we are at war or not?
This regime keeps playing their Orwellian games by calling it everything except a "war"?
People, that is not rain falling on your shoes...
Iranians like to hold Americans hostage.
We know this from their Revolution in 1979. Many think the hostages were the reason Jimmy Carter lost the election in 1980? Reagan did make it a political issue, as I recall.
But, it should be a warning to all Americans in that part of the world. They are likely targets for hostage takers.
In war, nothing is predictable.
It might be wise for Americans to vacate those countries as soon as possible?
