Iran and the US - Is Trump serious?
The truly interesting news to me is not from the impressive bombers. But from the gray things.
In recent days, India , unlike the rest of the industrialized world, has been among the few countries that Trump has not come against in the trade war. There is a reason for this: India will be the world's cheap labor manufacturer and will replace China.
If India in 10-20 years will have Iranian oil instead of Saudi oil - that's not good for the US. After all, you are a superpower. You're not just being nice. Your goal is to create control: that the country that produces your products (India) will buy the energy from the country that buys weapons from you (Saudi Arabia), and all the products and energy will pass through the trade route (Israel) under your control.
These are superpowers. They don't aim to score the most goals - but to buy the league. Trump's secondary goal in the trade war, alongside the restoration of American industry, is to engineer the industries, natural resources and trade routes to America's benefit.
For years, American presidents have preferred a “nuclear Iran over the Spectrum.”
1. Democrats loved her because they wanted to tear Iran away from China.
2. Republicans are against it because they want to tear Russia away from China.
Along the way, Arab countries and Israel join forces, buy weapons, and make agreements under US auspices.
President Trump, unlike American presidents and his own presidency since 2016, is serious about Iran because the trade war is his top goal.
The policy of "maintaining power and the balance of terror" between Iran on its path to nuclear weapons and the Arab countries and Israel is no longer relevant. If China invests billions in Iran, if the Houthis, under the auspices of Iran, block a shipping route, if Iran occasionally flirts with India, if Hezbollah threatens gas rigs - Iran is entering head-on into Trump's superpower war.
The policy of containing Iran served Iran in another era: before the US became an energy powerhouse, before the Abraham Accords, before the Russia-Ukraine war, before Iran proved with the Houthis that it had the power to stop trade routes, before Western European radicalism.
Iran sits between China and India. It is a country that, potentially, just from selling energy, can hold Asia and become a power in its own right. In the era of the trade war - in which the US is seeking to create control over trade routes: the Panama Canal, Greenland, and the completion of the Abraham Accords for the trade route that will pass through Israel and Gaza - Iran has no right to exist as a country that is not a clear American proxy, otherwise it is an energy threat.
For the same reason that the Trump administration is serious about the Gaza Strip.
For the same reason he's serious about Greenland and Panama.
This is how serious the Trump administration is about Iran.
We are in the era of superpower warfare and the US's goal now is to create control over everything related to industrial, energy, and logistical trade.
In my opinion: Trump is very serious.

IN 2006, RESEARCHER CLEVE BACKSTER — THE MAN WHO INVENTED THE CIA'S LIE DETECTOR PROTOCOLS — PUBLISHED 36 YEARS OF EXPERIMENTS PROVING THAT PLANTS, BACTERIA, AND HUMAN CELLS IN PETRI DISHES RESPOND INSTANTANEOUSLY TO HUMAN THOUGHT AND EMOTION — EVEN AT DISTANCES OF HUNDREDS OF MILES. THE SIGNAL IS FASTER THAN LIGHT. IT DOES NOT DIMINISH WITH DISTANCE. IT IS NOT ELECTROMAGNETIC.
In 1966, Cleve Backster was the world's foremost expert on polygraph technology. He had developed the interrogation techniques used by the CIA, FBI, and U.S. military. He understood galvanic skin response — the electrical conductance of biological tissue — better than anyone alive.
One morning, on a whim, he attached polygraph electrodes to a Dracaena plant in his office. He watered it and watched the tracing. Then he thought: "I wonder what would happen if I threatened this plant." He decided to burn a leaf with a match.
The instant he formed the intention — before he moved, before he lit the match, before any ...
