Is Trump in the hands of the Neocons?
Trump’s blunder in not realizing that the very Neocons who tried to assassinate him because he was anti-war are NOT purely domestic. Bibi, I know, is part of this same crew. Trump has been led into the risk of dragging the US into an unwinnable all-out war, not just against Iran, but one that will involve both Russia and China.

Did the um Israelis substantially damage Iran's nuclear enrichment capability for civilian purposes Iran's air defenses Iran's offensive weaponry? Well it seems as it's pretty clear that the integrated air defenses were rapidly repaired and placed back into operation within the first 24 hours, and that that certainly surprised me. I did not think they would rebound as quickly as they did, but they did. As far as the nuclear facilities themselves are concerned, there are at least three known. There may be others, but the one that was damaged has since been repaired.

Israelis are in bad shape about a third of Tel Aviv has been damaged or destroyed and I'm sure that that will continue. As far as their military installations are concerned. I'm told that they're flying a lot of aircraft out of the country many are being flown to Cyprus in order to avoid being struck. I think Israel is on the ropes to be blunt it has only a few days left in terms of anti- missile missiles it air defense capability.

If the Israelis use a nuclear weapon they can bet 100% that one will be thrown back at them.

I'm sure there are all sorts of cells operating inside the United States that could pose very serious risk to us and I think we ought to take it very seriously.

President Trump has joined the uni party and he is going along with what the Senate and the CIA and others want. Tulsi Gabbard has stated the truth as far as she knows it, and I happen to think that she's correct and that takes a lot of guts, but she unfortunately is one voice in what is otherwise a wilderness in Washington. And if he presses ahead, as I think he will, and launches these attacks, then I think Tulsi Gabbard is faced with a very serious question how much longer do you want to be part of this, because ultimately you have no influence no impact and this is a runaway train that you cannot conceivably stop.
everything is connected. You can't just talk about one thing in the Middle East and then not talk about that there's also things that are happening in the in the Eastern European part with the Russia Ukraine war, or even sometimes associated with what's happening in the Indoacific, especially with China all of those things are swirling around right now and and really every one of these regions we're talking about something is going on right now.
The Iranian people are living under a harsh dictatorship that has resulted in a shrinking economy and a low quality of life. It remains to be seen whether Iran was close to becoming a nuclear power, but the concern did not exist until Israel’s attack on Iran. Is Iran the enemy? The one clear aspect is that the Iranian people are not the enemy, nor are the Russians, Ukrainians, Israelis, Chinese, etc. As Plato wrote in “The Republic” – “Only the dead have seen the end of war.”
