Trump Says Israel, Iran May Need to ‘Fight It Out’ Before Deal

Good comprehensive description of much of the details leading up to the bombing.

This particular article is not pay walled, so they must want EVERYBODY to read it. The Times is biased to the left a bit but their reporting always uses rock solid facts. 

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/us/politics/trump-iran-decision-strikes.html

When Israel began its assault on Iran, President Trump kept his distance. But within days he was on a path that led to an extensive bombing mission aided by political and military ruses.

We are supposed to trust this person's judgement?

A pathological liar and genocidal psychopath, driven by rage, hatred/racism and revenge? Drunken with his power to decimate Palestinians in Gaza with impunity, paving the way to his exterminating them, so that Jews can replace them. 

Trump not only does but he's Netanyahu's puppet.

Human rights organizations and UN officials have heavily criticized the Biden administration for vetoing multiple UN resolutions calling for an immediate ceasefire and for continuing to send arms to Israel. Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas said the US was complicit in war crimes,[109] and Amnesty International's Secretary General said that the veto showed that the US "displays a callous disregard for civilian suffering in the face of a staggering death toll".[110]Doctors Without Borders said that the veto "stands in sharp contrast to the values it professes to uphold," and that the US was providing "diplomatic cover for the ongoing atrocities in Gaza".[110]Human Rights Watch said that the veto and the military support "risks complicity in war crimes".[5] Following the veto, a UN General Assembly resolution calling for a ceasefire garnered overwhelming support, with 153 countries voting for the resolution to 10 opposed.[111] Turkey's president called for reform of the UN Security Council system that allows for the five permanent members to veto resolutions supported by the overwhelming majority of countries

Now, with the DIRECT assistance of  the US(actually doing the bombing this time-not just providing the bombs and pretending to be neutral) see how easy it was to violate international laws and win the war in Iran?

The man above is responsible for ALL OF IT.  And he has captured our presidents brain and turned him into a Netanyahu puppet instead of a President of the United States representing the best interests of the citizens of the United States.

America First?

We all just saw the real Donald Trump, regarding America First. 

Instead, for self serving reasons in his pathologically thinking, delusions of grandeur brain, he wants to be part of Netanyahu's completely crushing victories in the Middle East.

Instead of being the only person/country to STOP  the genocide in Gaza, he's elected to be the KEY PART OF IT because of his ego and deranged thinking. 

Using our tax dollars for bombs to kill innocent people. Making all Americans part of it. He just made us all targets by his direct bombing of Iran on Saturday.  

How is that America First?

'Finish the job': How Netanyahu convinced Trump to strike Iran's nuclear sites - exclusive

By AMICHAI STEIN

It took a whole week for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer to convince US President Donald Trump to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities.

https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/article-858612

++++++++++++++

The only reason Trump did any bombing was because he was following Netanyahu and discarding all the previous evidence (from his own intelligence agency) and promises he made to Americans.

He should be impeached but with Rs controlling both houses, that could never happen and our politicians ON BOTH SIDES  are bought and paid for by powerful lobbyists that WANTED THIS (and the genocide in Gaza).

By bombing Iran, the US continues to make the world safe for war

Netanyahu is thrilled by Trump’s attacks on Iran, as will be the arms manufacturers who used to love the shah of Iran.

https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2025/6/22/by-bombing-iran-the-us-continues-to-make-the-world-safe-for-war

Of course, a “fear of nuclear annihilation” has nothing to do with Israel’s current strikes on Iran, which have been dutifully portrayed in the US media as targeting military and nuclear facilities but have somehow managed to slaughter hundreds of civilians. The victims include 23-year-old poet Parnia Abbasi, killed along with her family as they slept in their Tehran apartment building.

As is clear as day to anyone not in the business of defending Israeli depredations, the attacks on Iran are simply a war of convenience for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is killing all sorts of birds with one stone in his campaign against Iranian nuclear facilities.

In addition to distracting the world from Israel’s ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip, where starving Palestinians continue to be massacred on a daily basis as they seek food and other aid, Netanyahu has also managed to divert attention from his own embroilment in numerous corruption charges at home.

And yet, aside from being a persistent thorn in the side of US imperialism, Iran’s behaviour has been rather less apparently, um, “evil” than certain other international actors – like the US itself. For instance, Iran is not the one currently funding a straight-up genocide to the tune of tens of billions of dollars.

Nor is Iran the one that has spent the past several decades bombing and otherwise antagonising folks in every corner of the world – from backing right-wing state terror in Latin America to conducting mass slaughter in Vietnam.

The United States is a hypocrite!

US: State Department Determines Genocide in Sudan

The following quote can be attributed to Nicole Widdersheim, deputy Washington director at Human Rights Watch:

“The State Department’s announcement should be the first step toward redefining US policy in Sudan with accountability and civilian protection at the center. We hope to see more pressure from the United States on the parties to the conflict and US allies to respond to past and ongoing atrocities and human suffering.”

    The top 10 crises the world can’t ignore in 2025 

We are living in a world out of balance. Find out what is driving the most pressing humanitarian crises around the world.

December 11, 2024

https://www.rescue.org/article/top-10-crises-world-cant-ignore-2025

2. Occupied Palestinian territory (oPt): Gaza devastated while West Bank sees record violence

More than a year of conflict has devastated Gaza. The latest escalation began in October 2023 when Hamas and other armed groups attacked southern Israel, killing 1,200

 people and taking over 200 hostages. In response, Israel launched airstrikes and ground operations against Hamas, with the conflict sparking an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe.

There is no safe place in Gaza: over 1 in 50 people there have been killed since October 2023. Civilians in the West Bank have also faced record-level

 challenges due to Israeli military operations and settler violence in 2024.

What risks will the occupied Palestinian territory face in 2025?

  • Without a lasting ceasefire, civilian casualties will increase in 2025.
  • Almost the entire population of Gaza faces crisis-level or worse food insecurity. Food security experts warn that famine could take hold across all of Gaza if the conflict and restrictions on humanitarian and commercial supplies continue.
  • The collapse of the humanitarian system, including hospitals, will leave civilians without the services they need in 2025.
  • Rapid settlement growth and land expropriation are expected to fuel tensions in the West Bank. Palestinian communities are at risk of losing access to essential services and the ability to provide for their families.

How does the IRC support the occupied Palestinian territory?

In Gaza, the IRC provides clean drinking water, malnutrition treatment and child protection and mental health services. We also support emergency medical care in the few hospitals still functioning. In the West Bank, the IRC and our partners provide mental health, protection and early childhood development services. We also provide medical supplies and strengthen hospitals for mass casualty care.

+++++++++++++++

Things have deteriorated further, halfway thru 2025.  Netanyahu is drunken with unlimited power/no accountability and  unlimited weapons from the United States so that he can continue his horrible genocide. Now that Trump is on board, there no longer a bit of minimum resistance, like we saw from the Biden administration. 

Instead, we are getting direct participation with the assistance. Now,  Netanyahu has turned our "America First" president into his puppet.

As they bomb the heck out of the targets that Netanyahu decides are the ones he wants obliterated. 

It's impossible to separate Iran from Gaza because they are both caused by the same agenda from the psychopath from Israel. The timing of the bombing, shortly after Trump became president and after over a year of having constantly positive reinforcements from impunity in Gaza is no coincidence. 

Sadly, our morally deprived, self serving, bought and paid for politicians, not only can't be counted on to do the right thing here,  they are thrilled that Netanyahu is a bonanza for their diabolical personal agenda. 

Also sadly, much of the  ratings driven media are also part of the Military-Industrial-Political-Media complex that is benefiting from this.

Fox might as well be in charge of public relations for Netanyahu.

Israel lobby in the United States

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_lobby_in_the_United_States

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) headquarters on Mount Vernon Triangle in Washington, D.C.

The Israel lobby in the United States comprises individuals and groups who seek to influence the U.S. federal government to better serve the interests of Israel. The largest American pro-Israel lobbying group is Christians United for Israel, which has over seven million members.[1] The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is an influential organization within the lobby.

The Israel lobby has funded primary campaigns against members of the two major political parties in the U.S. (the Republican Party and the Democratic Party) who are viewed as hostile to Israel's interests.

The size of AIPAC’s war chest means it can pick and choose the races in which it is most likely to succeed — boosting its image as a kingmaker and its influence among candidates and members, while simultaneously hiking up the cost of criticizing U.S. policy toward Israel.

 

Funding Both Parties

 

AIPAC’s approach to electoral spending is bipartisan. The group has funded Republican, Democrat, and independent candidates alike. AIPAC PAC supported 233 Republicans with a total of more than $17 million in funds, 152 Democrats who received more than $28 million in sum, and three independents: Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, and Angus King of Maine, who got just under $300,000 between them. (Spending not covered in this analysis includes AIPAC PAC contributions that were refunded in 2023 or 2024 or those that went to other PACs and political organizations, such as the National Republican Senatorial Committee or the centrist Democratic nonprofit fundraising platform Democracy Engine.)

Who will stop Israel's horrific, 601 day genocide (with US assisting) in Gaza?

Who will stop Israel's massive crimes and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank since October 2023?

Instead of stopping them, the United States has become their partner in crime..............helping to eliminate any opposing forces in the Middle East and completely ignoring the outrage and condemnations from 170 countries, the vast majority in the world.  

Israel and the US are making sure that nobody in the Middle East or world can challenge Israel's atrocities in Gaza or  The West Bank.

Israel’s Crimes in the West Bank

Since October 2023, Israel’s operations in the West Bank have intensified, though they have not received the attention they deserve.

https://thetricontinental.org/red-alert-19-west-bank/

Displacement and Confiscation

Israel is carrying out ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, using tactics such as shootings, pogroms, sexual violence, and the destruction of homes and farms to expel people from their lands even more rapidly. Since the start of Operation Iron Wall in January 2025, the Israeli military has forcibly displaced 8,255 Palestinian families from their homes in the refugee camps of Jenin (3,840 families displaced), Nur Shams (1,910 families displaced), and Tulkarm (2,505 families displaced). These families are the direct descendants of the Palestinian refugees who were ethnically cleansed from their homes during the 1948 Nakba and have been denied their right of return ever since. In addition to these refugee camps, Israel’s occupation forces – which include both the formal Israeli army and armed Israeli settlers – drove 28 Palestinian communities off their lands between January 2022 and September 2023 and destroyed over 3,500 built structures, including homes, livestock sheds, and water cisterns in the West Bank between October 2023 and April 2025.

Death, Arrest, and Torture

Since October 2023, Israel’s occupation forces have killed approximately 900 Palestinians in the West Bank, including at least 190 children, and injured 8,400 more. These numbers are likely higher given the lack of humanitarian organisations to properly document the violence carried out by Israel in an area whose institutions have been deeply impacted by the genocide and ongoing occupation. Since late 2023, Israel’s occupation forces have arrested 15,000 Palestinians, many under the category of ‘administrative detention’, which does not require a formal charge (these figures are likely deflated due to the severe restrictions on legal representation). Since 7 October 2023, there have been more than 65 documented cases of Palestinians being murdered in Israeli prisons, detention centres, and concentration camps. Sexual violence is routine in these camps.

The Bisan Center for Research and Development, the International Peoples’ Assembly, and Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research call upon intellectuals, civil society groups, and political and social organisations to pay close attention to the developments not only in Gaza, but also in the other parts of the OPT. The ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity cannot be ignored or allowed to continue with impunity

++++++++++++

Israel is a rogue state, led by a pathological lying psychopath who is drunk with unlimited power and complete impunity  to perpetrate horrific crimes on the Arab world with the United States assisting him. 

Both countries using their far superior weapons and military to decimate millions of human beings, mostly children and women because of their nationality and Israel's diabolical agenda. 

President Jimmy Carter is rolling over in his grave. 

Clear thinking, objective people that truly understand this are sickened by the profound moral depravity of the actors involved and saddened by how naive and ignorant most Americans are that are giving Israel a free pass and in some cases, actually cheering and supporting it.

Military–industrial complex

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military%E2%80%93industrial_complex

The expression military–industrial complex (MIC) describes the relationship between a country's military and the defense industry that supplies it, seen together as a vested interest which influences public policy.[1][2][3][4] A driving factor behind the relationship between the military and the defense-minded corporations is that both sides benefit—one side from obtaining weapons, and the other from being paid to supply them.[5] The term is most often used in reference to the system behind the armed forces of the United States, where the relationship is most prevalent due to close links among defense contractors, the Pentagon, and politicians

New Report from Senator Warren Uncovers Defense Industry’s Abuse of Revolving Door Hiring Practices

                                            

Investigation Reveals Hundreds of Former Military Officials, Members of Congress, and Government Staff Serve As Board Members or Execs at Companies They Used to Regulate Today, Warren Will Chair Senate Hearing on Public Integrity and Anti-Corruption at DoD and Across Government 

Report - Pentagon Alchemy: How Defense Officials Pass Through the Revolving Door and Peddle Brass for Gold (PDF)

https://www.warren.senate.gov/oversight/reports/new-report-from-senator-warren-uncovers-defense-industrys-abuse-of-revolving-door-hiring-practices


Key findings of the report include:

  • Top defense contractors hire hundreds of former government officials, most as lobbyists: As of 2021, there have been 672 instances in which former government officials, military officers, members of Congress and senior legislative staff were found to be working for the top 20 defense contractors. In 91 percent of these cases, the individuals who went through the revolving door became registered lobbyists for big defense contractors.
  • Defense industry consolidation increases the risks from big corporations abuse of the revolving door: DoD is the largest federal contracting agency – of the total $692.3 billion in contracts awarded by the federal government in FY 2021, 61 percent were awarded by DoD, with almost 40 percent going exclusively to 10 defense contractors.
  • Big defense contractors hired the most revolving door lobbyists and stocked their boards with former government officials: Boeing hired the most former government officials, 85, which includes six as high-ranking executives, two as board members and 77 as registered lobbyists. Raytheon hired 64, three as board members, one as a corporate executive and 60 as registered lobbyists. General Electric hired 60 revolving door lobbyists. These examples shed light on the frequency with which defense contractors use the revolving door to hire former, high-ranking government and military officials into senior executive or board positions.

I predict that Trump(and others) will spin this to mean that his bombing of Iran over the weekend is what caused the ceasefire.

Reality: Israel has been bombing Iran WITH IMPUNITY for 10 days with their 20 times more superior military and weapons.

Iran has been lobbing their missiles into Israel and causing just a fraction of the damage in a feeble attempt to defend itself from the bully of the Middle East. 

Trump came in with the huge bunker busting bombs over the weekend and  just like Israel, encountered no resistance because Iran can't fight back........which is why Israel and the US are complete bullies. Decimating whoever they want wherever they want, whenever they want and for whatever reason they want with very little resistance.

Exploiting their massively superior military's to abuse Arabs in the Middle East, justified always by "Israel defending itself"o

Israel is done bombing Iran for now, so they decided on a ceasefire, continuing to claim that they are the morally superior country because they only targeted military sites, military leaders, scientists(who are civilians) and nuclear operations.

While Iran is supposedly  committing war crimes by responding to an unprovoked attack on their country by sending their wimpy missiles, half hazard into Israel, killing some civilians IN DEFENSE of unprovoked attacks on them.  Never mind the last 601 days in Gaza (and the West Bank) where the all powerful Israel military is intentionally killing many tens of thousands of  80% innocent people, mostly children and women and is perpetrating a horrific genocide on more than 2 million people. And 

And most of the people from Israel and US accept that as reasonable, including almost all the politicians that control the shipments of bombs and assistance to perpetrate these heinous war crimes.

Like Iran actually has a choice in this. When Israel stops, they HAVE TO STOP or get decimated more. 

This cease fire is basically Israel deciding to not decimate Iran anymore and Iran has to stop their wimpy response or Israel will decimate Iran more. 

Before Israel decided to bomb Iran, unprovoked.........guess what?  Iran wasn't bombing or attacking Israel. There was peace already. There didn't need to be a cease fire!

Trump bombing over the weekend didn't' cause the cease fire or peace. There was already peace before and until Israel interrupted the peace by violating international law with an unprovoked attack. 

For instance, when a big bully is relentlessly  beating the snot out of a little kid and the kid is just trying to get in a few shots to defend himself, the one sided fight ends when the bully stops beating the snot out of the poor kid.

The 2 big bullies in the Middle East, in this case, Israel and the US were beating the daylights out of Iran, completely unprovoked at the time.  The beating was only coming to an end after the enormous bullies, ganging up on the much weaker adversary decided to stop beating him up. 

Trumps bullying role was this: While Israel was beating the crap out of Iran, he jumped in because the other bully told him to and  like a coward, threw a bunch of sucker punches to a very weak opponent that couldn't fight back. 

Then told the beaten up opponent that if they try to fight back, the 2 bullies would resume the beating.

The so called "cease fire" is just the bullies telling us they are done beating the snot out of their much weaker opponent and they have no choice but to not fight back anymore.

It's been much worse in Gaza and the West Bank for the past 601 days, where the same bullies have been severely beating innocent people to their deaths as they OFFER NO RESISTANCE. 

It will go on indefinitely until the biggest  bully eliminates all the people they are killing or the other bully(US) intervenes(fat chance) or the bullies dad (Israel) stops admiring his sons bullying and gets a conscience that causes him to intervene.

Thanks, Larry,

Trumps use of the most powerful military, using the most powerful, non nuclear bombs to obliterate Iran gave his massive ego a huge adrenaline rush that is sure to also cause a serious episode/flare up of his delusions of grandeur, pathological thinking.

The most powerful man in the world (which is true) truly believes he is omnipotent and that he can rule as an authoritarian, not as a president.

Ironically, he is Netanyahu‘s puppet. However, the dynamic here could get interesting as Trump is now convinced that Netanyahu owes him everything because of his bombing Iran……who, in his delusional mind , thinks that Netanyahu also should,obey his every command about Iran .

Iran must do this  because now……if they don’t, he has threatened to deliver more of what they just got. Can you imagine the blowback if Iran decides not to follow Trump and Trump makes additional strikes on Iran to teach them a lesson?

We may get to see Donald Trump at his mentally ill worst here and what makes him a horrible leader and embarrassmemt to the United States.

Just depends On whether things go his way or not. If they do, he’ll be ok. If not, he’ll be a basket case.

Op Midnight Hammer: US intel reports Iran capable of resuming it's nuclear programme within months; Trump's claim on Iran strikes disputed

@PressSec

FAKE NEWS CNN STRIKES AGAIN: This alleged "assessment" is flat-out wrong and was classified as "top secret" but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community. The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.

++++++++++++++++

Actually, NO WE DON'T KNOW what happens. This has NEVER been done before. Most of the force of the explosions very likely went horizontal and upward, just based on the physics of explosion forces that cause the force to go to areas of LEAST resistance.

The area of far greatest resistance is straight down.  They have no idea how far down the forces needed to go and how far down this number of bombs would penetrate because its never been done before.

If this was a mountain, then then it was made of ROCK and not loose soil. Another complicating factor.

I'm not an explosive expert but know a great deal about physics. I will try to learn more and report back.

1 thing that is certain right now. All the White House sources(1 was on CNN just now) are lying their arsis off about being positive that what Trump said on Saturday is true. 

It could end up being mostly true but there is no way that President Trump could have known or now know that the entire nuclear equipment was obliterated.

Knowing this White House, there is a near 0% chance they will be honest and acknowledge any evidence that contradicts what Trump said on Saturday. 

So if Israel starts bombing again later this year because they say that Iran still has a nuclear program left, it will be an interesting situation. 

++++++++++++++++

There's no way to get enough key information to even guess at how much destruction of the nuclear facilities occurred. We'll just have to wait for the assessments, including the White House lying to us.

Will the White House lie?

1. Is the Pope Catholic?

2. Does the sun rise in the Eastern sky?

3. Did Netanyahu tell President Trump to bomb Iran?

Time for a history lesson for President Trump.

1. The US got into WW2 because we were attacked by Japan at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Iran never attacked the United States and was not threatening to attack the United States on June 21, 2025. President Trump violated international law on June 21, 2025 because the leader of a rogue state, Israel told him to bomb Iran.

2. In WW2, the United States and it's allies were the good guys, that included fighting against a horrific genocide killing 6 million Jews in Germany  from a diabolical leader, Adolf Hitler. In this current Middle East war, we are on the side of the bad guys, rogue state Israel. Teaming up with the diabolical leader, Ben Netanyahu to COMMIT THE HORRIFIC GENOCIDE against innocent people, mostly children and women in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

The United States of America is on the WRONG SIDE here. 

I would never suggest that we be on the side of known terrorist state, Iran. However, the only real obliteration taking place here has been the obliteration of the Gaza Strip using millions of pounds of US bombs. Home to 2 million innocent people, mostly children and women that are also being starved to death and brutally mowed down by Israel when they show up to fight for a few scraps of food at aid centers.

THIS is  the REAL obliteration and with OUR BOMBS!

Gaza genocide

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide

According to a United Nations Special Committee,[38]Amnesty International, and other experts such as academics and lawyers, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza against the Palestinians during its ongoing invasion and bombing of the Gaza Strip as part of the Gaza war.[39][40][41] The acts of genocide described by experts and human rights organisations include large-scale killing, use of starvation as a weapon of war, destruction of civilian infrastructure, attacks on healthcare workers, and forced displacement. Various observers, including UN experts,[42] the UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territoriesFrancesca Albanese,[43] and Human Rights Watch have cited statements by senior Israeli officials that may indicate an "intent to destroy" Gaza's population in whole or in part, a necessary condition for the legal threshold of genocide to be met

Of course it will. Netanyahu insisted it would yesterday when he said he would continue to keep his foot on the gas pedal.

Here's the thing about this mission.

The military did a great job at what they were ordered to do. We have the best military personal in the world/best trained, best equipment and most powerful ammo. 

Regardless of the integrity of issues, which is on the person at the top making that decision they do THEIR JOBS without hesitation and to serve our country. 

However, in this case there was and is a tremendous amount of uncertainty about the extent  of damage done. It's surprising that such a report was issued so quickly and was probably leaked by somebody that has a problem with this bombing.  Not good. They should find and get rid of the source of the leak and that person should be prosecuted for a federal crime.

Now the worst part related to Trump's response AFTER the bombing that shows how horrible a leader that he is.

His description of the site being completely obliterated, before it was verified,  then ordering a cease fire immediately because of his massive ego....... put our military at a disadvantage in case they needed to go back to finish the job.

He couldn't and nobody could be certain on a never done before operation like this,  with this amount of bombs and a facility deeply buried under alot of rock and uncertainty of what was under there on how much damage was done.

Let's say that the bombing did major damage but  much of the equipment was buried much deeper than they thought????

With Trump immediately  insisting that everything was obliterated(before anybody knows) and there will be no more bombings to destroy the site and now we have a cease fire and now he's going to negotiate for peace as a final position.......... he totally messed up his option to do a 2nd bombing to finish the job in case the site WASN'T obliterated. 

As you know, I'm strongly against what Netanyahu is doing in the Middle East and his dragging in the United States into his wars but if we the mission is to destroy Iran's nuclear capability...........then we should make sure we give the best military in the world the best opportunity to FINISH the job they were given to do.

Trump just sabotaged any opportunity for them to FINISH the job in case they didn't really obliterate everything.

Just more evidence of his pee poor leadership that often features his impulsive, ego driven really dumb statements that undercut those that are smarter than him and better at their jobs than him. 

Ironically, his favorite criticism of others is that they aren't as smart as him(to boost his ego).

Netanyahu is a diabolical psychopath and perpetrating a cold blooded genocide but he's a brilliant strategist that knows how to exploit every advantage to win his wars.

Putin is a diabolical, psychopath and killer but he's a brilliant strategist that exploits his advantages to the max to win his war.

Trump is the most powerful man in the world with the most powerful military in the world. He's  a mentally ill man with delusions of grandeur that causes his pathological thinking and impulsive actions and statements to negatively  impact his decisions .........like he just did by insisting Iran's nuclear facilities were completely obliterated when he couldn't possibly know that.

Like with his completely loony tariffs threats(which have NOT done what he promised-as people that actually understand the principles of global economics between poor and rich countries knew would be the case) , HE is the one that lacks the ability to comprehend these complicated issues enough to consistently make the smartest decisions for the United States and for the world.

He is NOT a brilliant man when it comes to many of these issues.

In fact, with regards to the bombing of Iran, he just got conned by the master charlatan from Israel to abandon his America First promise to get elected and instead is Netanyahu's puppet because Netanyahu is so much smarter than President Trump. 

In fact, Netanyahu bombed Iran 2 days before Trump's peace negotiating meeting with Iran to intentionally sabotage President Trumps effort. Instead of Trump calling out Netanyahu for doing this........he changed his entire tune and obeyed Netanyahu's command. 

Netanyahu is controlling our politicians in Congress (that gave him 50 standing ovations last year when he came to get more bombs) . He's CLEARLY controlling our president.

Just look at this:

Trump demands end to Netanyahu’s graft trial: ‘US saved Israel, now is going to save Bibi’

In unprecedented intervention in Israeli justice system, US president slams criminal case against PM as a ‘ridiculous Witch Hunt,’ declares ‘THIS TRAVESTY CAN NOT BE ALLOWED’

https://www.timesofisrael.com/trump-demands-end-to-netanyahus-graft-trial-us-saved-israel-now-is-going-to-save-bibi/

Washington on April 7, 2025. (Brendan Smialowski/AFP)

  

Fresh off striking Iranian nuclear facilities together with Israel, US President Donald Trump on Thursday demanded the end of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ongoing criminal trial.

“BREAKING NEWS… I was shocked to hear that the State of Israel, which has just had one of its Greatest Moments in History, and is strongly led by Bibi Netanyahu, is continuing its ridiculous Witch Hunt against their Great War Time Prime Minister!” Trump wrote in a lengthy post on Truth Social.

The unprecedented intervention in the Israeli justice system by an American president came as the cross-examination of Netanyahu, which began earlier this month, was due to resume after being halted while courts went on emergency footing amid the war with Iran, with only urgent proceedings taking place.                                            

                             “It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu. THIS TRAVESTY OF ‘JUSTICE’ CAN NOT BE ALLOWED!” he concluded.

++++++++++++++++++

Just more evidence that Donald Trump is mentally ill and getting worse. He is actually the most powerful man in the world but his pathological thinking has convinced him that he's omnipotent and has led to an enormous abuse of his power and a mentality that he is infallible, even as this mentality is wreaking havoc  on America and the world because he imposes agenda based on his solar system sized  ego and uses really bad, often impulsive judgment, while often being unable to grasp a comprehensive understanding of some realms (like with his counter productive tariffs).

This latest crazy demand, trying to impose his influence on  a criminal trial in Israel using his perceived GLOBAL omnipotence to save his partner in crime and puppet master Netanyahu is extreme..... even for Trump.

That's because his mental illness is getting worse.

Meanwhile, international legal scrutiny continues. The International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague has issued arrest warrants against Netanyahu, accusing him of war crimes and crimes against humanity for alleged actions in Gaza, including targeting civilians and using starvation as a tactic.

+++++++++++++++++

But our US Congress gave this psychopath 50 standing ovations when he came asking for more bombs and sure enough thousands of huge bombs TO DO MORE KILLING came right away.

Now, President Trump reveals more of what makes him tick. 

1. Lack of integrity/ethical standards as he teams up with Netanyahu and his horrific genocide. 

2. Putting Israel first and NOT America first

3. Now trying to impose his omnipotence on the foreign country which got/gets  priority AHEAD OF his promise to put America first.

“Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State,” Trump said. “It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu.”

Again, for new readers, I am NOT a liberal/democrat and I am not only NOT antisemitic, in fact, I speak out AGAINST antisemitism and AGAINST politically motivated/biased  thinking.

What is happening right now in the Middle East with our politicians partnering with the rogue state, Israel is one of the worst crimes again humanity by our country in history.

It not only vehemently violates the so called "America First" agenda but it extremely violates every ethical standard that human beings have followed since becoming civilized and passing basic laws to protect people different than us.

Media sources like Fox News that continue to constantly sell a genocide as "Israel defending itself" to tell its viewers what they want to hear and for its ratings bonanza are also greatly profiting INTENTIONALLY from these horrific war crimes.

I was a main (weather) anchor for WEHT in Evansville from 1982-1993. A common saying was "It doesn't matter what you say or what you do........as long as you get people to watch!"

Our news directors reminded us every month about how important the ratings were to our job security and salaries when it came time to renew our contract.  Fox is leading in the ratings by being the lies and propaganda far right/MAGA station.
