Trump’s Foreign Policy Is In Service To
Israel
By Paul Craig Roberts

- Peter Jenkins, a former British ambassador
to the International Atomic Energy Agency,
expresses concerns about the decisions of
France, Germany, and the UK to appease
President Trump on fixing “flaws” in the
Iranian nuclear agreement.
It is worth a
read
to see that the European governments are
still Washington’s toadies despite the “hate
Trump” attitude that allegedly prevails
among Washington’s European vassals.
Readers need to understand that there are no
flaws in the agreement. The allegation of
“flaws” is an israeli orchestration in order
to resurrect the attacks on Iran that the
nuclear agreement terminated. What Trump is
doing is appeasing Israel. Israel doesn’t
want Iran to have long range missiles,
non-nuclear ones, that enhance Iran’s
defensive posture. More importantly, Israel
does not want to lose the nuclear weapons
charge that Israel invented and hoped to use
to have the US military destabilize Iran a
la Iraq and Libya. Israel’s problem with
Syria and Iran is that both countries
support Hezbollah, the Lebanese militia that
has twice driven the vaunted Israeli army
out of southern Lebanon, territory Israel
wants to occupy for the water resources. If
Israel, armed as it is with the American
Zionist Neoconservatives who control US
foreign policy, can resurrect the Western
attack on Iran, Israel can perhaps pressure
Iran to abandon Hezbollah and Lebanon to
Israel.

Never Miss Another Story |
Americans are so totally brainwashed by
Israeli propaganda that there is no public
restraint on Washington serving Israel’s
interest. And that is what Trump is doing.
The tough guy is nothing but a panderer for
Israel.
What is going on has nothing whatsoever to
do with the Iranian nuclear or missile
program. It has to do with Israel’s use of
US power, including the intimidation power
over Europe, to remove Iran as a constraint
on Israeli expansion.
Of course, the UK diplomat probably knows
this, but he also knows that he cannot say
it without being read out of his career as
an “anti-semite.”
