JUST SO WE'RE CLEAR ABOUT WHAT TRUMP THINKS HIS HOLY IRAN WAR ACCOMPLISHED:

 

Trump's cultists are giddy with excitement because the Strait of Hormuz was reopened.

The strait was freely open BEFORE Trump started his Holy Iran War! His war with Iran closed it!

Iran is now charging vessels $2 million to go through the strait. It was free before Trump's war.

And now, according to reports, it's closed again:

Trump's Press Secy., Karoline Leavitt:

 Karoline Leavitt: "Lebanon is NOT part of the ceasefire agreement". 

 FACT: The PM of Pakistan, who mediated the ceasefire, tweeted out that it WAS included. He's literally the one who witnessed the deal.

Either she's deliberately lying or is stupidly incompetent.

The Aftermath of the Raving Lunatic's Threats

And this is madness!

Hegseth: "God deserves all the glory. Tens of thousands of sorties, refuelings, and strikes, carried out under the protection of divine providence. A massive effort with miraculous protection."

Greg Sargent:

This is the reality, not the B.S. being propagandized by the Trump regime:

Is this what MAGA voted for?

 

A maniac willing to commit war crimes in the name of the US by destroying an entire civilization?

Trump warns ‘a whole civilization will die tonight’ as Iran deadline looms

A self-imposed deadline set by President Donald Trump for Iran to reach a peace deal was looming Tuesday, as Trump escalated his threats to destroy the country’s infrastructure and talks appeared to stall.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Trump said in a post to his Truth Social account. “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.”

This is an American president, not the North Korean crazy man:

According to the Department of Defense's "Law of War Manual," Trump's "Truth Social" post is a war crime itself:

TRUMP'S EASTER MESSAGE TO IRAN AND THE WORLD:

 

FROM RAWSTORY:

"President Donald Trump issued a curse-laden threat to Iran on Sunday, warning its leaders that unless they cave to his demand to re-open a critical shipping channel to U.S. vessels, the United States would launch an unprecedented attack Tuesday on Iranian civilian infrastructure. 

 “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F----- Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.” 

(I read that FAUX NOOZ hasn't published Trump's crazy Easter Truth Social post, so his cultists on the Mother Ship won't see what a raging maniac he truly is.)

Trump’s post said the U.S. “hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran. Bridges next, then Electric Power Plants!” 

In his post, Trump did not elaborate on what needed to be “done,” but said the U.S. “hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran.” 

 On Friday, Trump said in another Truth Social post: 

“With a little more time, we can easily OPEN THE HORMUZ STRAIT, TAKE THE OIL,& MAKE A FORTUNE.” “IT WOULD BE A “GUSHER” FOR THE WORLD???” said the post.

 1. General Protections for Civilian Objects Under the Geneva Conventions, parties to a conflict must distinguish between "civilian objects" and "military objectives." 

Definition of Civilian Objects: All objects that are not military objectives are considered civilian and are protected from direct attack. 

Presumption of Civilian Status: 

In cases of doubt about whether an object (such as a school, house, or place of worship) is being used for military purposes, it must be presumed to be civilian and cannot be attacked.

********************

Everyone who voted for this psychopath is complicit in what he's threatening and in what he may do next to Iran. 

The civilian destruction and deaths will be on the conscience of every person who voted for this maniac.

 

HAPPY SPRING.

AND HAPPY EASTER TO THOSE WHO CELEBRATE TODAY.

 

There's something desperately wrong with Trump.

He told the American people that America doesn't need the Strait of Hormuz, and it's not our problem.

This morning he posted on Truth Social account:

Trump posted that if Iran doesn't open up the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours, "...all hell will reign[sic] down on them." And then ended his post with "Glory be to GOD."

We have a mad man running the country.

TRUMP FIRED AG BONDI

 

TRUMP'S SPEECH ON HIS IRAN WAR

I've been reading Krugman since 2005. Of all the reviews I've read about Trump's speech last night, my opinion is that Krugman's take is the most accurate:

 Paul Krugman:   

"It turns out that the speech was sort of an anticlimax, although not in a good way. Many people expected Trump to pull the mother of all TACOs, to declare victory and surrender. He did not do that. He declared victory, of course, but he did not actually announce an end to hostilities. On the contrary, he said we’re going to bomb Iran into the Stone Age. 

So add massive war crimes to your schedule. There is clearly no strategy here. There’s no endgame. There’s nothing. It’s hard to tell, as always, whether Trump is delusional or just completely unable to admit something that he actually knows.

 One of the moments that really struck me in the speech was him declaring that the whole world was extremely impressed by what happened. He said, the whole world is watching and they can’t believe the power, strength and brilliance. They just can’t believe what they’re seeing. The world can’t believe what it’s seeing.

 What it’s seeing is that the world’s greatest military power took on a fourth-rate power. Again, as I said the other day, Iran’s military budget is a rounding error in our military budget. And we lost. For all practical purposes, we’ve left ourselves in a much weaker position and Iran in a stronger position than it was before."

This is how the world sees Trump:
