Is Trump about to
repeat George W Bush's worst mistake?
Yes, especially the greatest and bloodiest one, listening to
the Prime Minister of Israel.

No, the problem isn't that simple.
What you've said is right out of Netanyahu's fantasy
playbook.
Good God, what does Israel have to do with any of this?
Here, the answer is simple. Netanyahu wants Trump to hurt
Iran. In return, he'll support any activity Trump likes, including making the
most threatening and inappropriate speech in the UN's history.
They were the words of a street thug, and Netanyahu praised
them as brave.
By the way, whenever we speak of illegal nuclear weapons,
weapons causing terror for all neighbors in a region, it is absurd to ignore
Israel.
Somehow, it’s okay for Israel to have 150 nuclear weapons
plus medium range missiles that can reach most of the capitals of Europe plus
submarines, some of which have been jerry rigged to carry a nuclear missile?
But North Korea, which the US literally flattened in the
1950s, killing a full twenty percent of the entire population, is evil for its
far more limited number of weapons?

As does every knowledgeable official from the chief UN
expert to the President of France.
These stupid charges about Iran are owing solely to
Netanyahu.
He is upset how things have gone in Syria, so he is ready to
attack Iran.
Not for any claimed threat - there is none, Iran never
having attacked anyone - but because Israel wants to completely dominate its
region, just as the US dominates much of the world, and Iran is now a serious
competitor.

In fact, the Saudis assisted the Pakistanis with big money
in developing their weapons.
There is an agreement under which the Saudis can get some
number of weapons if they feel threatened.

But even more unfortunately, it isn't just Trump.
American presidents cannot alone start war.
