    Default Donald Trump ordered attack on Iran, then calls it off, air space bans US carries.





    The operation was underway in its early stages when it was called off, a senior administration official said. Planes were in the air and ships were in position, but no missiles had been fired when word came to stand down, the official said.
    This air space ban was already in place



    I see the US news outlets and back peddling as fast as they can
    What i don't understand is if they were all in position, what were they waiting for?

    Maybe Putin rang up Trump and talked some last minute sense into that demented pea brain.
    Russia could step in to support Iran when the USA starts another groundless war and Trump couldn't figure that out on his own.


    I am not kidding here. I just checked, the "Red Telephone" still exists but the communication is now upgraded to more modern standards:

    Yes, i've seen all the memes

    A senior level administration source briefed on the plan says it would have escalated the situation quickly had it been carried out. Officials feared the attack could have caused hundreds of civilian casualties.

    Everybody should watch from 13:15 so it is clear what is going on here.
    Even USA acknowledges that IRAN fully complied with the nuclear agreement that Trump pulled out of and started all this shit but of course he is just a straw puppet for the big players, just like even the REAL politicians.







    So now we are still left waiting to find out what Trump's Next Move is :

    Yeah. As much as I detest Trump, we need more REAL facts.

    My opinion? Putin rang Trump and told him to call it off or he wouldn't get him elected again.
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    I wonder where the thing hit the water, that would show who was telling porkies.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Nothing biased on that section I suggested of the the first video, just facts but of course if you don't like the facts you can do like Trump and call everything you don't like or doesn't fit in your biased world view, all fake news.
    Other countries like China just remove all the facts from all channels that don't suit their policies, Duterte from the Philippines simply kills the reporters or threatens to kill their families if they don't report only nice things about him.


    The second video is a parody if you hadn't noticed, that I found well fitting, but that is only my opinion.

    Of course you can go ahead and find an attack on Iran with likely 100,000's of casualties, justified. We have freedom of speech.

    The FACT that Trump asked somebody if anybody would die from this in the very last minutes before they started shooting speaks volumes about his mental ability.
