Why bother to even report what Trump puts out on his fucking Truth Social? I guess you could argue that it’s important to know what this particular President is putting out on any given day, but what if it does not make sense?
Maybe Trump and his coterie of Hegseth Crusaders are following the prescriptions from the famous military philosopher Carl von Clausewitz? His theory of war is taught in all US military training academies. Adolph Hitler could reportedly quote Clausewitz “by the yard”. As you’re probably aware Clausewitz taught that war was simply “politics by other means” and that the art of deception - that is lying - is a recommended tool to “confuse and disarm the enemy”. And the enemy would include the majority of good US citizens who oppose the war.
I guess if Trump’s ‘Truth Social’ posts were seen and reported in this Clausewitzian light, then maybe that would be helpful and counteract the “brain rot” that they cause in ordinary readers.
What do you say to that?

WikipediaAl Jazeera summed up the overall state of play in this game of Empire - and asked the right questions - in remarkably few words (see below).
You & I know may know ‘zilch’ (or in Aussie vernacular ‘fuck all') about the ‘true reality’ of the situation - however we know a lot about the ‘perceived reality’ based on media reports & connecting various 'dots' or 'factoids' flowing into our ears & eyes from the ubiquitous internet.
For example: the recent drone attack on Saudi Arabia reported to be launched from Iraq.
Do you believe this came from an Iranian-backed militia inside Iraq, or from the one of the 2 secret Israeli Air Force bases there?
During the current stalemate, the situation is ripe for a false-flag attack perpetrated by Israel and blamed on Iran.
This will create all-out war of U.S., Israel, Saudi & the Gulf States on the same side, all against Iran. The stakes are very high right now.
If this conjectured false-flag attack happens and Israel's involvement remains invisible, Iran will lose the war (unless China and Russia provide some ultimatum to the aggressors beforehand)
If this does not happen, Iran will win.
My bet is that a history-changing false-flag attack, blamed as a preemptive strike by Iran, but perpetrated by US-backed Israel, will happen any day now, to break the deadlock or stalemate and plunge the region into a fucking zero-sum conflict
Any thoughts?

I'm following most of the Iranian government accounts on X - and they are also largely a crock of shit. I'm not a fan of Trump, but neither am I fan of these Iranian self aggrandizing clowns. If you watched my recent youtube video on Iranian oil history you would know that I am no longer a fan of Iran in general.
I understand why the US toppled the government of Iran in 1952. It makes sense to me. Iran did nothing to develop its oil resources. The hard work and risk was all borne by British entrepreneurs and pioneers at great cost. The socialist/nationalist government elected in 1950 unilaterally decided to break the 60 year contract and kick the British out. They stole the whole operation.
Also, I reject the notion that "Israel controls America". Israel IS America. Israel is a projection of American power, nothing more, nothing less. It's all theatre.
Hey. . . that is exactly what I have come to believe! My way of making sense of the relationship between Israel and the United States of America, is to see the former as the de facto but not the de jure 51st state of the USA.
I guess that's similar to your meme "Israel IS America"
Great minds think alike!
