An MSNBC headline states that Iran threatens pre-emptive action, but is that even possible?
Remember, Iran has not attacked any country, and has not perpetrated a single act of war against anyone. On the other hand, the U.S. has continually committed acts of war against Iran on many occasions since at least 1953.
Just considering recent events, the U.S. has put massive and destructive economic sanctions on Iran, and has threatened other countries if they don’t comply with these sanctions. These sanctions are direct acts of war.
The U.S., as well as Israel, have threatened to attack Iran on multiple occasions, and with nuclear weapons, weapons they say Iran may not possess. The U.S. has deployed many warships into Iranian waters, and is doing war exercises with Israel for the stated purpose of attacking Iran.
Without writing a dissertation on the subject, it is obvious to me that the only aggressive posture taken is that of the U.S. and Israel, not Iran. It is obvious to me that any “pre-emptive action” will be prosecuted by the U.S., mainly because the U.S. has already committed many aggressive acts of war against Iran, so how could Iran at this point commit any pre-emptive act? I can tell you, it could not!
The bottom line of all this aggression is that the U.S. has very specific imperialistic goals concerning Iran, and apparently will do whatever it takes to cause a war with Iran, including very possible false flag events meant to create a “first shot fired” situation. Nothing about this deliberate attempt by the U.S. to take over Iran and the Middle East is moral or warranted. Nothing about this imperialistic march toward total war is accidental. Nothing happens due to happenstance, but due only to planned power and control of an entire natural resource rich region.
I am not fooled by the U.S. and its desire for global hegemony, but it seems that the general population is still ignorant to the real ploy, and is still apathetic to the continuing slaughter of innocents in the Middle East. This makes the citizenry of this country complicit in this unholy drive toward world control!
