 larry johnson explains a bit of the 'new' war created by the lying sack o crap 'our president' is with details; 

 

Unless TACO Trump is bluffing, the US appears poised to unleash a new series of attacks on Iran using the Strait of Hormuz as an excuse. On Sunday afternoon, Donald Trump President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that the US will begin guiding foreign ships out of the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday under “Project Freedom,” calling it a humanitarian effort to assist neutral vessels stranded by the conflict. Trump warned that any interference with the operation would be met with force.

Prior to this, President Trump on Truth Social said that Iran has not yet paid a ‘big enough price’ for ‘what they’ve done to humanity’:

‘I will soon be reviewing the plan that Iran has just sent to us, but can’t imagine that it would be acceptable in that they have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to Humanity, and the World, over the last 47 years. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP’

Trump, as expected, rejected the Iranian proposal and then announced Project Freedom around 5:30 pm eastern time on Sunday… By giving the military operation a new name, Trump is using a lawyer’s trick to circumvent the War Powers Act. I anticipate that a majority of the Senators and Representatives will go along with Trump’s ruse and will re-start the 60 day clock.

Trump officials are working overtime to convince the public that this is a diplomatic move to try to compel Iran to allow freedom of navigation through the Strait. US Officials told the Wall Street Journal:

‘Project Freedom will not include escorts by US warships through the Strait of Hormuz, but rather a coordinated effort by shipping and insurance companies’.........more..........
