World war 3 now imminent

[AtW]

There are lots of useful idiots in the West, but near zero in countries like Iran.

If those people were not idiots, they would have reflected on the matter, but I guess we can't expect much from idiots.

Even if one does approve?

I’m sure there were plenty that approved of the Contras, the Taliban, NORAID (I’m sure you remember that one...), Iraq WMDs.

It’s also possible to be critical of those.

Those bases is a cheap way protect from Iranian aggression.

The alternative was to nuke them back in 80s.

Deliberately targeting sites of significant cultural interest.

For the hard of comprehension, as far as we are aware the US haven’t targeted those sites, but their President has threatened to.

For the further hard of comprehension, this doesn’t mean that the Iranians are innocent either.

I recommend judging Trump by his actions and not the drivel he puts out on Twitter.

As an aside, why are you always so anti-West? The middle-east is just one massive power-play, the US, Russians, EU, Iranians, Saudi's, Syrians, Israelis, Turks, Kurds, Qataris and many more ... none of them are up to any good. They all have blood on their hands.

It is, if one is critical of those.

If the US escalates the situation, then China and Russia will be up front defending their interests in Iran. I'm sure the US can't be ignorant of that fact.

My guess is that between them they will continue to attack the petro$ and USD as reserve currency and continue to circumvent US sanctions on Iranian oil in a way that we can't stop them.

Russia/China/Iran are playing a different game to the West, the US is all bombs and military threats/bases etc while the other side are chipping away at the petro$, creating financial and economic systems independent of Western control and flipping countries into their sphere of influence - oh and buying up a lorra lorra gold....

If only someone could post enough drivel to make that come true!
