Iran Assassination: Why NOW?

[Stinky The Clown]

Bibi sees his window closing.

Trump wants *anything* that fucks with Biden"s chances for success. Plus it makes Putin happy.

1. Trying to provoke Iran into war

I think the Iranians are way too smart to take the bait, not when a new sheriff is coming to town.

3. I don't think Trump was consulted

It's not like he is in a position to protest. Honestly, this is the position that Trump's bullshit about the election has put us in. We have a very weak world position right now because Trump has stopped being president (not that he was ever that great at doing it). As we've known all along, Trump doesn't give two fucks about the country.

4. Not just Bibi. The Sauds too.

Look at all the money Trump and his clan have gotten from countries who consider Iran an enemy but don't want to fight Iran by themselves.

5. This is the kind of thing he decapitated the Pentagon for.

And he’s not calling these shots. He doesn’t know a fucking thing about it. He’ll sign off on them because the puppeteers know how to appeal to his lack of character. He thinks it makes him look tough.

6. Bibi's got an election coming up, too. This is about him and Israel, not Trump and Putin.

The whole time we were fighting in Iraq over Saddam's illegal yellow cake deal (or whatever), Iran was actually getting black market uranium to weaponize, and Bush probably knew it.

7. Trump is clueless, and the Mossad knows it, but time is running out for their free reign
