When he started his attacks on Iran, US President Donald Trump made it clear that his first bomb attack would follow an incredible destruction, the government in Tehran was too annoyed. But after giving the war a chance, he also made it clear that he wanted “peace” for everyone involved. Then he played with the idea of a “change of regime” war. Then he announced an alleged ceasefire. But then he was very angry on the Internet. Because nobody adhered to his offended ceasefire claims. Then he got very angry online again. And then … who the hell already knows that? Even high -ranking members of his own government sometimes do not seem to know what to think of this Trump War of War and supposed peace.
Trump bombs and tweeted towards peace price
One is safe. Trump wants him to believe that he can make his way to permanent, constant peace with shitposts, intimidation and even bombs.
Trump wants to win the Nobel Peace Prize for years. And both within and outside the office, he regularly brings up this difficult -to -grapple honorary signs, tell him close people. However, you don’t have to rely on their statements alone. Because the president regularly complains publicly and on the Internet that he has not received a Nobel Peace Prize. Which he could hang in his office.
One reason for this is that, despite his anti-neoconservative rhetoric, Trump developed a clearly war-friendly balance in both times. With the corresponding number of victims. His war against Iran is only the latest example of this long list.
A peace award winner with a bomb balance
To this day, Trump is visibly annoyed by a source that recently spoken to him in this presidency when the topic comes up in private discussions. He complains that he must “save the whole world” to win the price during this term. But even that, he believes, could not be enough to convince the Norwegian committee in the face of an alleged anti-trump pre-infection.
But even within Trump’s second government-which he has stuffed with yes-sagers, yes-sagers and greedy Maga supporters-there is a certain injury about Trump’s attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities at the weekend. Even if nobody expects this disappointment to resign or anything useful. Except for anonymous steam drafting towards journalists.
Vice President JD Vance, a former Trump critic, repeatedly said that Trump’s alleged engagement for an end to the “endless war” and his departure from the old militaristic establishment of the Republicans had drawn him. Trump’s great talk of being the “peace candidate” was of course always a gigantic dizziness. And Vance still remains a loyal Trump-trueer who fully supports his boss’s war.
A quietly annoyed Trump representative told Rolling Stone that the planless Iran bomb policy of the President was the type of “war shed shit” against which one should actually be. But during the week the same source said: “At least he is a lazy war.”
A moody president with bunkerwallers
Trump had bunker-break bombs down on Iran’s nuclear facilities on Saturday evening. And spoke openly on Sunday about a possible “change of regime” in Tehran. On Monday evening, the president announced a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. He again demanded peace in the region. When Iran and Israel continued to exchange attacks on Tuesday morning, Trump complained to reporters, the countries “did not know what to do with hell”.
In the days before Trump’s command to attack Iran, another government representative described the military planning of Trump’s military planning in such a way that the President rhyme them “out of her gut”. Depending on the mood or depending on what is going on on his favorite broadcaster. On Tuesday, when Trump asked angry peace between Israel and Iran, the same officer said: “The President is just posting himself.”
Disinformation à la Bush – at double speed
This month, the Trump government effectively did its own MAGA version of the years of preliminary in advance for Iraq invasion under George W. Bush in the time lapse. Also characterized by lies, aggressive propaganda and the manipulation of secret service reports.
At the weekend, Rolling Stone reported that Trump’s decision to bomb Iran had nothing to do with new US intelligence information about the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic. Contrary to all the president and team’s assertions. “There is no secret service knowledge,” said a government representative, assured by anonymity. “Nothing new, as far as I know. The reviews of the secret services have basically not changed.”
Success reports vs. reality
White house spokeswoman Anna Kelly claimed on Sunday: “This is the wrong and lazy ‘reporting’, which aims to undermine President Trump’s extremely successful operation to break Iranian nuclear skills.” Trump also claimed “Iran’s central uranium enrichment systems had been completely and totally destroyed”.
But whether Trump’s bombing was actually as successful as the government claimed is completely open. According to CNN, an initial assessment of the US secret services that Trump’s military strikes Iran’s nuclear program did not fundamentally destroy. And it was probably only thrown back by a few months.
Weißhaus press spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt posted angrily on X: “This alleged ‘assessment’ is simply wrong. It was classified as ‘strictly secret’. But was nevertheless stabbed by an anonymous failure from the intelligence group to CNN.”
A source trusted with the matter said Rolling Stone that the president was “loudly” dissatisfied with the leak. And an aggressive investigation had already been initiated.
Asked what the past few days meant for a possible Trump doctrine, another Trump consultant said: “President Trump can bomb you bombing you again whenever he wants. If someone thought that he is just playing, should be clarity now.”
Unclear remains – on both sides
For the pigeons as well as the falcons in the US government, there is still a complete ambiguity of what Trump’s foreign policy should actually look like. For the moment – since all officials know that Trump’s views can change every minute – some are relieved that the Third World War did not literally broke out.
Some Democrats do that too.
“The anti-war voices from left and right have prevailed,” says MP Ro Khanna (D-Kalifornia). “I am glad that prudent heads have prevailed and Trump is apparently decided to stop this war.”
Last week, before the US attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Khanna, together with MP Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky), brought a resolution after the Power Act to prevent Trump from starting a war against Iran-which he did anyway.
“I have [am Montagabend] Spoken with a member of the massage and we are currently pursuing a waiting approach whether a vote on our War Power’s Resolution is still necessary, ”says Khanna.“ According to Vance, Iran still has nuclear material for bomb production and is now becoming [Atomwaffensperrvertrag] Stand out and throw out the inspectors. We need diplomacy – unless America plans to bomb Iran every few years, which would be a terrible result. ”
