Trump Is Back Under Crazed Neocon Bolton’s Thumb
by Paul Craig Roberts via reg - PCR blog Friday, Jul 19 2019, 11:21pm
international / prose / post

(More detailed background on previous article from Press TV)

President Trump might be his own man [some of the time] but not when it comes to John Bolton and Israel. [Puppet] Trump is their man and is again being manipulated into starting a conflict with Iran.

Trump appears drugged but we know he's only a servile dog

Someone in Washington, most likely Ziocon warmonger Bolton, got the UK to commit an act of piracy on the high seas and seize an Iranian oil tanker, Grace 1, on the grounds that Iran intended to deliver the oil to Syria in violation of US sanctions.

Iran’s leader, Khamenei, denounced Washington’s British stooge for “maritime banditry” and said there would be consequences. Today there were. Iran detained two British tankers.

This is want Bolton and Netanyahu wanted. They used it to wind up Trump’s fulminations against Iran. The trouble that the idiot British started with Iran is no concern of ours, but Trump’s threats are nevertheless issuing at a rapid pace.

The British call Iran’s response to their banditry “an escalation” that requires “further protection for merchant vessels . . . to ensure enhanced security to guarantee free flow of trade in the region.” Of course, the British did not think their act of banditry caused a need for “enhanced security to guarantee free flow of trade in the region.” It is quite alright for Britain to seize ships but not for Iran.

The British Foreign Secretary offered Iran the release of Grace 1 if Iran guaranteed it would not breach Washington’s sanctions on Syria by delivering oil. Washington’s sanctions, of course, are totally illegal and devoid of any basis in international law, as is the British enforcement of Washington’s illegal sanctions. One wonders why Russia doesn’t stop this escalation by taking over the delivery of oil supplies to Syria.

[Well, wonder no more, mouse Putin is a known COWARD who has fed more ALLIES to US/NATO war hounds than any other Russian leader in history.]
