Trump's GULF Alliance Just FELL APART Completely; So Much for “Nearly Over

Trump said the war was nearly over, then his Gulf protection racket answered with burning fuel tanks in Kuwait. Right, so Donald Trump is telling us the Iran War is nearly over, that its almost finished, that he has stood by his Gulf allies and protected them and thanked them for their help. I don’t think anybody has told Iran though. Those are scenes from Kuwait International Airport, where they have had their fuel tanks hit and set on fire by an Iranian drone strike, and Donald Trump chose that precise point in time to tell people the war was nearly over. Whoops. Bad timing. Kuwait of course hosts American forces, sits inside American defence arrangements, and lives under that sales pitch from the orange tan man that the price of US alignment is US protection. Well the fuel tanks still burned didn’t they? The airport still had to be secured. Emergency crews still had to put the fire out. So when Trump says nearly over, what he is really saying is that you are meant to ignore the fact that the side he is supposed to be protecting is still taking hits on its own infrastructure, because the old American promise doesn’t hold up when protecting Israel comes first and foremost, it is Israel First. Donald Trump has spent this whole war, this past month basically talking like the job is already done, how many times now has he said it’s finished, or nearly finished before another defence funding request goes in, more missiles get fired, more interceptors run out because, Iran is in the drivers seat and not Little Donnie, those allied with Israel and the US finding themselves very much on the target list at the same time Iran triggers another Trumpy toddler tantrum with another of their lego videos. This is the kind of man who wants the victory speech ready before the wreckage has finished burning. He has pushed the line that American objectives in Iran are near completion. He has paired that with threats of more attacks over the next two to three weeks, because apparently “nearly over” now includes more bombing, more escalation and more bargaining through force – at least he claims to bargaining, with real or imaginary Iranians nobody is quite sure anymore.
