By bombing Iran, the United States continues to make the world sure for the war | Israeli-Iran conflict

It seems that yesterday, American president Donald Trump was pushing a “diplomatic resolution” to the Iranian nuclear issue.

Now the United States have joined the illegal assault of Israel On Iran, hitting three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday in what Trump boasted was a “very successful attack”.

As CNN said considerably, “One night in the middle of summer in June 2025 could remember the moment when the Middle East changed forever; when the fear of nuclear annihilation has been lifted from Israel; When the power of Iran has been sterilized and America has skyrocketed. ”

Of course, a “fear of nuclear annihilation” has nothing to do with Israel’s current strikes on Iran, which have been conscientiously described in the American media as targeting military and nuclear installations, but have somehow managed to massacre hundreds of civilians. The victims understand the 23 -year -old poet Parnia Abbasi, killed with her family while they were sleeping in their Tehran building.

As is clear that the day to anyone who is not defending Israeli depredations, attacks on Iran are simply a war of convenience for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who kills all kinds of birds with a stone in his campaign against Iranian nuclear installations.

In addition to distracting the world of continuous genocide of Israel in the Gaza Strip, where the hungry Palestinians continue to be massacred On a daily basis, while they are looking for food and other help, Netanyahu has also managed to divert attention from his own land in many accusations of corruption at home.

In addition, the war against Iran is extremely popular among the Israelis, which results in large points for a Prime Minister who has faced an important domestic opposition.

Trump’s initial insistence on diplomacy with Iran naturally made Netanyahu’s panties in a giant group – but the situation has now been rectified by the attack on summer night, which, according to the president, “erased” the nuclear sites of Iran.

Admittedly, Iran has long occupied American reticlations, with many salivating establishment figures to the prospect of bombing the country with lightning. Some have salivated more openly than others, as in the case of John Bolton – a former American ambassador to the United Nations and briefly the National Security Advisor in the first Trump administration – which in 2015 took the opinion pages of the New York Times with the following elements advice: “To stop the Iranian bomb, Iran bomb.”

The fact that the publishers of the American newspaper of the file did not submit to an eye in the publication of such a blatant appeal to the violation of international law indicates the extent to which Iran has been completely demonized in the American society and media. Recall that in 2002, the president of the time, George W Bush, named the nation to his famous “axis of evil” with Iraq and North Korea.

And yet, in addition to being a persistent thorn to the coast of American imperialism, Iran’s behavior was a little less apparently, uh, “badly” than some other international actors-like the United States itself. For example, Iran is not the one who currently finances a direct genocide up to tens of billions dollars.

Iran is not the one who has spent the last decades either bombing and upsetting people in every corner of the world otherwise – to support Terror of the right state In Latin America at mass slaughter Vietnam.

In addition, the only power of clandestine nuclear weapons in the Middle East is not Iran but Israel, which refused to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (TNP) and has never allowed UN guarantees on its facilities.

Those who applaud the strikes on Iran citing the “oppressive” nature of the Iranian government would make the American history of oppression of oppression in the country. In 1953, the CIA orchestrated a coup against the democratically elected leader of Iran, Mohammad Mossadegh, who paved the way for the prolonged reign of the Shah-Happy Shah.

Historian Ervand Abrahamian notes in his book A History of Modern Iran: “The arms dealers joked by saying that the Shah devoured their textbooks in the same way as other men read Playboy.” Indeed, the obsessive acquisition by the Shah of American weapons did a lot to allow its reign by terror, which was ended in the Iranian Revolution of 1979. And the Iranian nuclear program that Trump has now bombed? He was launched by this same Shah.

Now, arms dealers are probably not too upset by the events of the night of summer and the general escalation of the crisis in the Middle East. Netanyahu did everything possible to Thank you Trump For its “daring decision” to go after Iran “with the impressive and just power of the United States”.

In Netanyahu’s words, Trump’s action “will change history” – as if to make the world sure for more war is something new. And while the American media rushed to justify illegal attacks on a sovereign nation, the claim hypocrisy of two heavily nuclear arms that undertake the police of nuclear “threats” cannot be overestimated.

It is anyone who guesses what Trump, who prides himself on spontaneous and maniac behavior, will then. But rest assured that, whatever happens, the arms industry will not be hungry anytime soon.
