Add this to the list of verifiable facts that our government is aware of yet chooses not to pursue or to make public. The question is, why not? The next logical question should be: Does Trump actually control the FBI & our intelligence agencies? If the answer is yes, then why 315.5K views · 4.5K likes · 692 reposts · 187 replies Open on X →
President Trump is demonstrating that he clearly knows the path to end the Military Conflict with Iran. Here he lays out the winning formula: end the conflict and oil prices will quickly drop. All that’s left for him to him to do is execute—he should do it now, before the https

Unintended consequence of the Iran war. ISIS will use this as an opportunity to reconstitute if chaos engulfs Syria. Regardless of how we feel about the current Syrian government’s past, they are moving in the right direction.

This article is clearly a defensive maneuver by White House advisors & Republicans who either encouraged POTUS to launch this war or who lacked the courage to tell him that this war would be a disaster.

Because we left our ships & troops in the region Iran has the ability to strike us in an effort to change the dynamics of the war to their advantage. We should deprive them of targets (our ships & troops) and funding. If our goal is to move from conflict to economic pressure, 189.4K views · 2.4K likes · 391 reposts · 308 replies Open on X →

Trump can will this into existence by pulling our troops out now, throwing them a massive victory parade & never mentioning Iran publicly again other than saying “it’s over, we won.” Then use quiet diplomacy & economic means to get the oil flowing through the SOH. 84.5K views · 2.4K likes · 273 reposts · 208 replies Open on X →

Our bases have become missile & drone magnets that we have to empty whenever conflict resumes—making them a strategic liability, not an asset. At this point, the true purpose of our troops in the Middle East is clearly to serve as human trip wires. They’re essentially bait, 193.2K views · 5.4K likes · 1.1K reposts · 298 replies Open on X →
We just struck targets on Lark Island, Iran will respond. If we want to control the escalation cycle & not have the war accelerate we must get our troops out of the region.

If this plan is actually implemented, it’s very likely that Iran will respond by striking the troops we have still in the region. We need to deprive Iran of that option—pull our troops out of harm’s way instead of leaving them as leverage for Iran to exploit.

Being angry at Fauci or being angry at Israel isn’t productive anymore. The anger is justified, but without real accountability it’s just wasted energy—unless it’s directed effectively into a pursuit for positive change.
