I dislike saying this, but I am not in favor of the peace treat President Trump has brokered with Iran. I tend to be in support of President Trump at all times, but this time he’s lost me. Let me give you a couple of reasons why I think this Iran thing is a mistake.
First, and most important, the disposal of nuclear material isn’t handled. My understanding is that the Iranians won’t discuss the nuclear material until later.
Why? Why are they holding onto the enriched uranium so hard? It is possible they want to build reactors, but why not state that? Why hold onto weapons grade uranium that, in my understanding, cannot be reduced to reactor grade?
Second, President Trump has promised three hundred billion dollars to repair their country. What? Why?
They’ve got endless oil dollars, let them fix their own country. Don’t give them money which, by past performance, they just use to buy weapons.
To pay them three hundred billion dollars is to buy peace. but you can’t buy peace. And I’m going to say something here that everybody should pay attention to: countries at war will remain at war until they are stomped into total submission. Iran isn’t stomped, they are still negotiating like they mean something.
The Korean ‘peace’ was negotiated by politicians, and North Korea is still a thorn in the ass 75 years later.
The Japanese during WW2 were stomped into submission, and they are a peaceful country to this day.
WW1 was a negotiated peace, and Germany rose from the ashes to commit WW2. It wasn’t until we destroyed their country, destroyed their government, and stomped them into total submission that they came around to a more amenable frame of mind.
This is basic history. Read history and you’ll see that this point is a truth.
With the peace plan reached by President Trump the same people are still in charge of Iran. It is a theocracy that, for fifty years, has murdered its own citizens, inspired terrorism around the world, and lied about virtually everything they do.
The Iranians believe that the west must be destroyed or converted. It’s hard to convert a people who don’t want to live in squalor and follow the directions of mentally ill despots, so they choose the ‘nuclear option.’
It is for these reasons that I disagree with the proposed Iranian peace plan. Intelligent people should write their elected leaders, and especially Don’t J. Trump, and be heard.
That all said, I do confess that I have been getting most of my news from the internet, and that has been an up and down mess from the get go. Until I get real and verifiable news, however, my opinion stands.
