Subsequent to his very personal responsibility in the approval of the infamous murder of General Qasem Soleimani , an obvious cold-blooded crime exercising State terrorism that characterizes the US empire, must have been contained by the blunt and accurate repudiation of countries and international organizations. Also by Iran's determined response, demonstrating the effectiveness of the deployment of its long-range missiles (capacity that very few countries possess), which can reach countless US military targets throughout the region.
The United States had to put the handbrake and silently endure the Iranian missile attack at its bases in Iraq. He did not respond immediately. But there is no doubt that Trump has opened the gates of hell, where Hades awaits him in that underworld. You have activated the worst of nightmares. The ghosts will harass the evil Trump , for the true fear of receiving attacks on any of the multiple open fronts across the planet. The scenarios vary from reprisals to force the closure of the Persian Gulf (only in the Strait of Hormuz: "17 million barrels of oil pass through this strait daily. More than 20% of world crude oil circulates through it"; attacks on its military bases ("the American country has between 50 and 70 thousand soldiers distributed in eleven countries of the Middle East"); attacks on its facilities within US territory; and a long etc. That reminds of the catastrophic debacle of the Twin Towers in 2001. Trump's irresponsible has triggered panic and now he must live with this dark reality for the rest of his life.
The whole planet is in suspense. His complaining "partners" of NATO had to reluctantly support him, because they know that a war will be swallowed by them first hand. Not only because of the certain possibility of confrontations within its territory, there is also the possibility that the conflict will generate the well-known waves of refugees from countries where conflicts are unleashed or escalated.
On the side of the Dogs of War (the powerful lobby of arms manufacturers) and the belligerent hawks of the Pentagon are more than happy because this state of alarm, panic and permanent military alert will result in revenue for billions of dollars of taxpayers North Americans Everything necessary to justify the acquisition of new and more deadly weapons. This will surely make the opulent military corporations big winners. A million dollars, which, as pointed out by the US congresswoman Ocasio- Cortz, are never available to meet the health, food or housing needs of millions of poor people within that country. His words are more than blunt: "People who tell you that we DO have money for war, but they DO NOT have money for medical care, money without tuition, money for infrastructure or money for Green New Deal are playing with you."
To try to control the deranged Trump , several voices opposed the war drums that they want to impose from the White House came out. Starting with the approval of a motion where “Congress instructs the President to desist from the use of the US Armed Forces. to initiate hostilities against Iran, its Army or Government.” Also the respected senator Bernie Sanders alerted all the American people that “The Constitution is very clear: it is Congress, not the president, who decides when we go to war. Congress must do everything possible to avoid war with Iran. ” And he also released this pearl, "If we get involved in a war in Iran, in all likelihood it will be even worse than the war in Iraq." Absolute clarity on the calamitous path chosen by Trump.
The electoral landscape is not yet clear to Trump . It seems that his strategy of manufacturing a war to distract attention from his political trial will increase his unpopularity among the majority of the American people (remember that in the 2016 elections, Trump took 2,868,691 popular votes less than the candidate Hillary Clinton ; so he hardly won the presidency because of the persistence of the post-colonial method of the Electoral Colleges). So it is clear that Trump is eager to tax this election campaign exclusively to his toughest supporters, those belonging to the powerful white elite of the extreme conservative right. Provenly intolerant and racist people to rage. With them under his lap Trump will try to prop up his wobbly presidential reelection.
