President
Trump might be his own man, but not when it
comes to John Bolton and Israel.Trump is their man and is again being
manipulated into starting a fisticuffs with
Iran.
Someone
in Washington, most likely Ziocon warmonger
Bolton, got the UK to commit an act of piracy on
the high seas and seize an Iranian oil tanker,
Grace 1, on the grounds that Iran intended to
deliver the oil to Syria in violation of US
sanctions.
Iran’s
leader, Khamenei, denounced Washington’s British
stooge for “maritime banditry” and said there
would be consequences.Today there were. Iran detained two
British tankers.
This is
what Bolton and Netanyahu wanted.They used it to wind up Trump’s
fulminations against Iran. The trouble that the
idiot British started with Iran is no concern of
ours, but Trump’s threats are nevertheless
issuing at a rapid pace.
Are You Tired Of
The Lies And
Non-Stop Propaganda?
The
British call Iran’s response to their banditry
“an escalation” that requires “further
protection for merchant vessels . . . to ensure
enhanced security to guarantee free flow of
trade in the region.”Of course, the British did not think
their act of banditry caused a need for
“enhanced security to guarantee free flow of
trade in the region.”It is quite alright for Britain to seize
ships but not for Iran.
The
British Foreign Secretary offered Iran the
release of Grace 1 if Iran guaranteed it would
not breach Washington’s sanctions on Syria by
delivering oil.Washington’s sanctions, of course, are
totally illegal and devoid of any basis in
international law, as is the British enforcement
of Washington’s illegal sanctions.One wonders why Russia doesn’t stop this
escalation by taking over the delivery of oil
supplies to Syria.
