So, the Epstein files are "start a war with Iran" bad

No Kings March 28th at DC, Capital, White House, Scotus, DOJ AG, all of them HAVE TO GO!

[crazyeddie@mastodon.social]

@michelestrider We now know they contain several accounts of him raping underage girls and at least one of these accounts are highly credible and was removed from the files. The hunt is on for it.

But at this point I'm pretty sure he doesn't even give a shit because he knows nobody else does and that nobody's going to stop him in anything he does. Everyone has been bought or brought low.

There is shit in #epsteinfiles that will scar a normal human brain for a lifetime
And I don't meant the r*pe and trafficking, awful as it is.

The creatures named in #trumpstein files have departed the human race.
If the operation was run by #israel, as it seems, it explains why the genocidal ethnic cleansing commited by them has so little pushback, because many of "the leaders" are compromised by the inhuman atrocities they commited...

...and we have only seen approximately 10%

@michelestrider Probably but Trump and his crowd are also not very bright. They can simply look at Netanyahu and how he has remained in office despite being unpopular by waging war against boogiemen. Trump probably just assumes he can do the same

@michelestrider

The attack on Iran is more than just file related. This sort of shit’s been in the works for years and years.

@michelestrider
We knew that in 2015. "You can grab her by the" etc

[hedgewizard@beige.party]

@mason @michelestrider
Also, Operation No Need For Midterms

[wendythedruid@thistlenfern.org]

@michelestrider You are absolutely correct.
OperationDustPileIran should be called OperationIAMInTheEpsteinFiles

[blamellors@mstdn.party]

@michelestrider A World War bad?

[inspired@hachyderm.io]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @michelestrider The attack, yes. The timing? I'm guessing it is pretty related.

[ghostonthehalfshell@masto.ai]

@inspired @michelestrider

Yes, and no. The agenda of the super rich has been to consolidate their grip on power and to aggressively take resources. These are the kinds of governments. They can never back down or show weakness, and they always have to engage in aggression in order to keep their own momentum. Going forward.

The deep and popularity surrounding the files are a factor, but we have so many other ones and play that includes the economy as well as their war on the American public.

[inspired@hachyderm.io]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @michelestrider Yes there are other near-term factors that also affected the timing. I guess my point could be better summed up as: "Why strike Iran?" Mostly the reasons you cite. "Why now?" All sorts of unrelated reasons completely unrelated to the situation vis-a-vis the US and Iran.

[inspired@hachyderm.io]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @michelestrider Also, I doubt the goal is truly regime change in Iran. Similar to Venezuela where they just took out the very top. They would be happy to see the whole regime fall, sure, but for the cost they are willing to settle for taking out the leader to accomplish many of the near-term goals I point to plus hope that the remaining leaders will be cowed even if they are still diametrically opposed to the US.

@michelestrider Wag the dog bad

[debaer@23.social]

@michelestrider "Wag the Dog" was not an instruction manual.

[ghostonthehalfshell@masto.ai]

@inspired @michelestrider

Power vacuums are never exactly a smart idea. It tends to lead to massive political instability.

The power balance in the areas filled with rivals and a disruption to that balance of power is going to have downstream effects well outside of Iran

[beachbum@mastodon.sdf.org]

@mason @michelestrider Indeed.

[deadinside@but.still.drinkin.coffee]

@michelestrider No, the war is the precursor to "you never have to vote again"...

[inspired@hachyderm.io]

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @michelestrider Oh yeah, it's bad. I don't pretend to know exactly how bad but I think it is pretty clear most of the people saying "don't attack Iran" weren't doing it because they want the current government in place. It is because the sort of consequences you are pointing to are likely far worse. Having said that, no matter how unlikely, I hope we turn out to be wrong. The Iranian people have suffered so much.

[bitterseeds@fosstodon.org]

@michelestrider @klausfiend Yes, they've driven every stupid "look over there!" thing that DJT has done for the last 13 months. Epstein's killswitch (Maxwell) didn't work out and dude was whacked in jail. Powerful people with more money than God are the cause of most of this planet's ills.
