“Trump ousts Rex
Tillerson as U.S. secretary of state”
I am no fan of Rex Tillerson, however anyone can see he is
one of the more rational and least extreme of Trump's appointments.
His dismissal at this time is cause for great concern.
We have the ugly situation in Korea Trump has created.
We have many noises from Israel about an invasion of
Lebanon.
And, most concerning of all I believe, is Iran. Trump, under
Israel's sway and against the advice of all major leaders, appears to be
preparing the ground for renouncing the nuclear agreement with Iran, something
every expert tells us they have scrupulously abided by.
And, even worse, that renunciation may just be an opening
ploy to attacking Iran. There is no doubt what Netanyahu wants, an attack,
something he previously spent a great of money on with detailed planning before
he came to the conclusion that Israel alone simply could not carry it off. And,
as we can all plainly see, Trump is pretty close to being totally influenced by
Israel in everything concerning it.
A war with Iran - a nation of about 80 million - would be
extremely serious. It is completely unnecessary and would represent
deliberately-calculated aggression by the United States and Israel, and it
could well suck in many other states as well as initiating new waves of
reprisal terror in the West.
