Tulsi Gabbard left no doubt when she testified to Congress about Iran’s nuclear program earlier this year.
The country was not building a nuclear weapon, the national intelligence director told lawmakers, and its supreme leader had not reauthorized the dormant program even though it had enriched uranium to higher levels.
But Donald Trump dismissed the assessment of U.S. spy agencies during an overnight flight back to Washington as he cut short his trip to the Group of Seven summit to focus on the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.
“I don’t care what she said,” Trump told reporters. In his view, Iran was “very close” to having a nuclear bomb.
Not really it was all theatrical in un but everybody knew and called them out. https://en.m.wikisource.org/wiki/French_address_on_Iraq_at_the_UN_Security_Council
not sure what you’re trying to argue. that maybe we won’t go to war?
i didn’t say no one called them out, just that they made an effort to justify the wars.
the wars still happened, didn’t they. despite being “called out”
people have been “calling out” trump for decades. we still have trump. people are “calling out” this war too.
My point is this is not specific to trump. I don’t like him but this is typical American military complex which we have seen in the past. History repeats itself.
Destabilizing Iran has been a major part of the US vision to reshape the middle east in it’s own favor, in order to retain hegemonic control and move the theater to China
It’s also been Israel’s goal since the 1990s, and Israel is an fundamental to US foreign policy in the region
