More Fallout from Trump's Wars
More Fallout from Trump’s Wars
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Donald Trump ran as the “peace
candidate” bodaciously claiming he would stop the existing wars and promising
no new forever wars and an era of peace and prosperity. Many people who were weary
of war fell for his lies and false promises. He said he would intervene to put
an end to the Ukraine-Russia conflict within days of being augurated. That didn’t
happen, the war is still raging and the US is supplying Ukraine with weapons
and money, our money or rather borrowed money to fight their proxy war against
Russia.
When Israel
facilitated the attack by “Hamas” on October 7, an attack which the Zionists
referred to as “their 9-11”; which was ironic because the US 9-11 was at the
very least was allowed to happen, then just like the US did in Afghanistan and
Iraq, Israel unleashed a savage genocidal assault on Gaza; Trump said he would
use his influence to bring about a negotiated peace settlement. He didn’t.
Again, Trump failed to keep his
word and Israel has viciously bombed civilian infrastructure, hospitals,
schools, mosques and indiscriminately murdered innocent men, women and children
in their quest to steal land and annex territory, yet Trump has not been
successful in stopping the carnage and slaughter by the Israelis. The killing
continues as we speak.
Then in June of 2025 Trump and Israel
launched and unprovoked attack on Iran, a nation that posed no threat to the US,
Israel or their neighbors; he did it under the flag of “peace talks”, not once
but twice. Meanwhile the lying US media depicts the Iranians as the bad guys
and threats to world peace!
Most Americans don’t know the US
has been bombing Somalia since 2007 and Donald Trump has continued this ongoing
war of aggression even in his second term! https://news.antiwar.com/2026/07/16/us-bombs-somalia-for-75th-time-this-year-2/
This is all part and parcel of an unending
legacy of war and aggression the United States has conducted since its official
inception in 1783. American leaders, like their European cousins, love war.
What are you an ordinary “citizen”
getting out of all this war? What benefits have you accrued from the American Empire’s
sordid history and tradition of predation, plunder and war?! How
much say do you as a citizen have in US foreign policy? How is it the wars keep
going on and on no matter which party is in control of the Congress or the White
House? How is it the Congress critters
get richer and we get poorer?
How is it you tolerate the prioritizing
of conflict and war profiteering at the expense of much needed infrastructural
improvements, peaceful technological innovation, a peace driven economy and
over the moral and ethical wrongness of war? Are you so brainwashed and
comatose you can’t see what is going on? The warmongers are spending more and more
of your tax dollars on war and you are getting nothing out of it! Now more and
more US body bags are starting to return home, are you okay with this?
Are you satisfied with the way
things are going? Do you like being forced to pay exorbitant prices at: the
food store, for energy, higher interest payments for loans and credit card
usage and consumer goods? Do you like being in a situation where things become
more and more unaffordable and beyond your accessibility? You can thank Donald
Trump and his predecessors including Barack Obama for this. All Trump is doing
is putting petal to the metal on an already existing multi-generational
imperialist war machine!
Now Trump has escalated the war
against Iran and Iran’s allies are intensifying their responses. Ansar Allah (the
Houthis) is blocking the Bab el-Mandab Strait effectively cutting off the Red
Sea, blocking trade and commerce in a vital transit way for oil. Saudia Arabia is going to pay a heavy price. https://thehill.com/policy/international/5979139-houthi-saudi-arabia-red-sea-blockade/
This action is literally choaking
Saudia Arabia’s import and export lifeline. As payback for US bombings in Somalia
al-Shabaab is collaborating with the Houthis to disrupt traffic in the Bab
al-Mandab Strait and Iran is supplying them both with drone technology! How do
you think this will impact Wall Street and Main Street USA?!
The closure of the Straits of
Hormuz and Bab el-Mandab will cripple global trade and commerce. This is a huge
development Trump cannot counter with more bombs, in fact bombing will worsen
the situation. These closures will cause major price increases on consumer
goods due to longer transit times, higher insurance rates and major supply
chain disruptions and scarcity. You can thank Donald Trump for this. Meanwhile
Trump and Congress are spending money they don’t have on more wars. Who bebefits?!
When you add the negative consequences
of the war in Ukraine, no fertilizer, disrupted supply lines for goods like
wheat and oil due to Ukraine striking Russian energy infrastructure, the
ongoing global fall out from these wars is going to be horrific. https://unsdg.un.org/resources/global-impact-war-ukraine-food-energy-and-finance-systems-brief-no2
Buckle up it’s going to get rough.
