After Months of Ranting About Taking Iran's Uranium, Trump Asks, 'Why Bother?' | Common Dreams

4h 33m ago by lemmy.world/u/CharlesDarwin in politics from www.commondreams.org

Was the uranium just a false justification for punishing Iran's economic independence?

It didn't even rise to that.

Trump wanted a war - any war - in part because his ego is entirely focused on his legacy and he thinks that being a "wartime president" will be a good thing, and in part to dustract from the Epstein Files and the risk that he'd be exposed as a serial child rapist.

He wanted that specific war because Bibi told him it'd be a cake walk - that he could just blow in like in Venezuela and take out the Ayatollah and the government would collapse, and then he could get Narges Mohammadi out of prison and she'd be so grateful she'd give him her Nobel medal, and then Trump would be the bestest President ever because he'd have two Nobels.

So was this about the oil? Yesterday, he said russia's oil can be sold again. I'm guessing that's flying under the radar now.

“Frankly, to go get it—we’re going to go get it—but to go get it is a big deal, because they say only China and us have the equipment,” said the president. “You could make the case, ‘Why do you even bother?’ because it’s not very valuable, you know. It’s probably half a million dollars worth, it’s not very valuable stuff.”

As the Iran war upends energy flows, Russia is emerging as the real winner

Russia is shaping up to be a major beneficiary of the war between U.S.-Israel and Iran, as higher oil prices and temporary sanctions relief boost the value and volume of its crude exports, analysts told CNBC.

Russia seems to be the major beneficiary of everything that paedo does.

Iran will have the best nukes! The most fantastic nuclear weapons! Frankly, no one sells out to Iran as bigly as Tr*mp.

If Iran wants nukes, that’s fine. Israel has nukes and they aren’t giving them up. Iran having nukes would be an India-Pakistan situation with two opposing countries having nukes. They’ve kept that status quo for 60+ years.

Iran being a stable country infuriates Israel and the United States, but left alone it will modernize (in most ways it already has) and things will be fine.

I'm so tired of this bs

Winning!

-- Loser

Dementia.

so what did we (U.S.) get out of of this whole fiasco? Anything?

A lot of debt
