So let me get this straight, after launching another war in the middle east with absolutely no plan, to counter a threat that doesn't exist, the US is now strengthening the only country who actually does pose a threat, undermining European security.

1. I've heard a hypothesis that the moment RUS forces were repelled from the outskirts of Kyiv, US realized that Russia is much less of a threat (to the parts of Europe US cares about) than US thought. So the US can focus on its biggest threat: China.2. Venezuela and Iran fit a pattern: US is targeting China's allies, particularly those that could provide China with oil during wartime.
3. The internal unrest in Iran appeared like a once-in-a-century opportunity.
@jmaris is (1) bad for Europe? Hell yes.
Is the US war in Iran bad for Europe? In the short term, yes.
However, when (if
)the missiles stop flying across the gulf, oil prices will recover much quicker than Iran's infrastructure.Now, will the devastation of Iran weaken China enough for US to not worry about it so much and be able to support Europe more?
Idk, probably not.But "Europe needs to get its shit together" is something we've already known.

@jmaris Whatever Trump does, Putin benefits.
And Russia is much more eager at genocide than USA or even Israel!

@jmaris You really had thought so? They absolutely do not want the Ukraine War to end, as they are making so much money out of it. They are selling weapons the EU pays for and "American" oil and gas. It's a goldmine. Zelensky is digging Ukraine's grave by thinking the Americans are his "friends" and giving them knowhow.

@jmaris Ukraine gives them drone tech and Russia shares US target coordinates with Iran, but America STILL doesn’t know which one is their enemy, I guess.
Why cannot people take seriously the idea that Trump is a Russian asset?

Why are you pretending that trump is governing in good faith? His actions are only weird if you assume he has the interests of anyone other than himself as motivation. He's a sociopath, done.

@jmaris
Trump is Putin's bitch.trAmp is the Grand Poobah of profiteering. It's all about the money and big egos. Here is a joke to keep is all sane.
Putin called Trump: "Our biggest condom factory exploded—send 1 million red ones, 10 inches long, 4 inches wide!"
"Consider it done," said Trump.
After hanging up, Putin laughed with his aides.
Trump then called a condom company: "Ship 1 million red condoms to Russia—10 inches long, 4 inches wide. Print on each one: 'Made in America. Size: Small'."

@tessarakt @jmaris
Hmmm... not sure about that.
Ukraine is already doing this.
Also, "preemptive strikes" is the US signature move to justify aggression. Europe is smarter and better than that. -

@mycotropic @jmaris
Agree. The dude is not really insane; he simply unethical and corrupt as hell. Prez Grand Poobah does everything only guided by his own $$$ interests. trAmp is a product of our society, which is not built for the common good but only for making the ultra-rich even richer.Years ago I read this proverb:
It is not the one who eats the whole pie who is crazy; the crazy ones are all those who let him do it. -

@jmaris and apparently Russia is providing Iran with military intel, but sure, let's reward them for that, too!

@jmaris The faction aligned with Vance is advocating a pullback from Europe and a reset with Russia.
American commercial involvement in Russia's energy sector would only be logical if American companies could sell that energy to customers... which, surprise surprise, are Europeans.
US companies get access to Russian energy assets, and Europe becomes the captive market for that energy, intermediated by American capital. Europe would end up paying for its own geopolitical subordination, twice: first to Washington, then to Moscow, with the profits going to the same investment class.
I have to hand it to the US, it's a masterful gambit
