mr peters who frequently has great insight into our surroundings gives us these thoughts on the amazing president bigly's iran war, and its costs;
Paying less than $4 for a gallon of gas was nice for the two weeks it lasted. Now it’s back to $4 again and – almost certainly – headed higher since the Strait of Hormuz is closed again, shutting off much of the world’s oil supply. Trump has been using the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to buffer the effects of this, but the SPR is reportedly getting close to being tapped out and when that happens, Trump will no longer be able to buffer the consequences of this stupid, evil war he refuses to end.
Why does he not choose to end it? A number of possible reasons come to mind, all of them stupid and evil. He cannot abide being seen as a “loser” – no matter what it costs us (he himself is not paying any costs and won’t, just like Dr. Fauci and Albert Bourla; the people who cause real harm almost never pay any costs; costs – like taxes – are for the “little people,” as Leona Helmsley once put it). Israel cannot abide the Iranians winning, which they have so far. Iran is a stumbling block in the way of their Greater Israel project and Trump is the Golem put in place to further that project. He may be a willing Golem. It does not matter. What does is that he is a Golem for interests that are not in America’s interests.
The interesting thing is that ending the war would be a win for Trump – and America. Most Americans want the war to end; they want to stop paying the War Tax. Trump would be seen – accurately, this time – as the president who ended a war (even if he did start it). Still, ending is much better than starting – and continuing. If the war really ended – not a temporary pause for a couple of weeks – and predictability replaced chaos, the oil would begin flowing again and the SPR would be refilling. A great sigh of relief could be heard – echoing to the surface of the Moon and beyond...........more..........
