Trump Is Back Under Bolton’s Thumb

Paul Craig Roberts

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.

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.

Bolton is a warmongering idiot who can easily manipulate this equally idiotic POTUS.

All along Iran and Saudi Arabia were just the two nations that were at odds with one another over their religious differences. Enter that moron called Trump who then prioritizes Saudi Arabia as the First Nation that he decides to visit as a POTUS. No doubt they may have come up with some sleazy under the table business deal with him, if he accelerates the tension with Iran. Then as expected and with someone like Bolton at his side, he created this mess with Iran, that is now sucking the British and the rest of t he EU into the mix!!

You think it's over religious differences?

Seriously? That's the excuse for the masses to fire them up. It's about political domination of the region.

And neither one is a good choice.

What do you think that the strife in Yemen is about?? Who do you think are the rebels religion wise??

Do you think that the two politics and religious sectors are independent of one another when it applies to the Middle East??

When it comes to the house of Saud it's a tool. Having taken care of some members of the royal family in the past a can say they are not devout outside of SA.

The strife in Yemen is a proxy war. To tie down and deplete resources on both sides so they buy more arms.

There is no reason for Yemen except the MIC needs customers.
