For the past forty years the US administration, instead of understanding realities, has indulged in vain efforts to undermine the Islamic Republic of Iran, but failed in all its intricate plots including the 8-year war that it imposed through Saddam of Baghdad’s repressive Ba’th minority regime in the 1980s.
Enter Donald Trump in the White House and the increase of US animosity against Iran. The present incumbent has turned out to be a totally blind bat.
When he could have learned from the blunders of his predecessors and charted out a fresh course by building upon what his predecessor had belatedly realized by inking the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan Of Action) on Iran’s right to peaceful use of nuclear energy, Trump miserably blundered.
In his ignorantly arrogant attitude to international affairs, he decided to gang up with two of the worst sightless persons, that is, the racist child-killer Benjamin Netanyahu of the illegal Zionist entity and the mass murderer of the Yemeni people, Mohamed bin Salman (MBS), of the totalitarian Wahhabi minority regime of Riyadh.
Trump then went on to fill his administration with Americans blighted by hatred towards Iran, in a futile bid to browbeat Tehran into submission through threats and theatrics.
Next he blatantly violated US international commitments through his unlawful exit from JCPOA and clamped illegal economic sanctions in the misconstrued belief of isolating the Islamic Republic.
He bragged about rolling back Iran’s positive influence in the region and said his acute pressures would soon force the Islamic Republic to shelve its defensive ballistic missile programme.
His tall dreams, however, are turning into horrific nightmares. While the power and prestige of Iran grows, it is the US which is becoming increasingly isolated on the world scene.
The Free World, including Washington’s traditional the European Union (EU), has strongly opposed Trump’s unilateral move and has decided to continue commercial ties with Iran.
Even Trump’s thundering of threats to leading Third World countries, such as India and Turkey, to penalise them in case of buying Iranian crude oil and gas, have fallen on deaf ears.
Turkey has declared its decision to continue natural gas imports from Iran in addition to the normal trade, economic, cultural, political and all other ties; while India has signed a fresh deal for import of Iranian crude with clear intention of carrying out its commitment to the Chabahar project in south-eastern Iran.
It is obvious that Trump is the loser as is evident by the unceremonious exit from the UN of his loud-mouthed anti-Iranian hag, Nikki Haley, coupled with the cowardly murder of dissident Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi – a naturalized American citizen – by the blue-eyed boy of Washington MBS.
In the meantime, his so-called deal of the century for Palestine is in shambles with no independent world country willing to tow the US line to shift its embassy to the occupied Islamic city of Bayt al-Moqaddas.
While the American people, press and politicians are calling on Trump to be realistic and react against Riyadh’s roguish murder of Khashoggi, the US president is hesitating on the lame excuse his country would be losing the 110 billion dollar weapons order from Saudi Arabia for the massacre of more innocent human beings.
Therefore, who is more isolated on the world scene? The USA of Trump or the Islamic Republic of Iran!
