Since this war is shorter than most wars,<br \/>\nit hardly counts. We&#8217;ve pretty much won but we&#8217;re going to<br \/>\ndo some warring a little harder for a little while longer but<br \/>\nbasically, it&#8217;s done. And also, we&#8217;re the best ever.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not much of what Trump said was true but what does that matter when you&#8217;re justifying a war that was based on a lie?<\/p>\n<p>Normally it&#8217;s wise not to read too much into what President Trump says but this was a prime-time nationwide address. It feels like he is asking Americans to brace for impact because a ground invasion is coming and when it gets bad, as it is predicted to, to just remember we&#8217;re almost done.\u00a0 Yeah, right, we&#8217;re always &#8216;almost done&#8217; even with the <em>Forever Wars<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re going to hit [Iran] extremely hard over the next 2 to 3 weeks,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We&#8217;re going to bomb them back to the stone ages where they belong&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>This kind of savage rhetoric sounds like genocidal intent, doesn&#8217;t it? It almost feels as if Gaza was a warm up act to what we&#8217;re about to witness in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Iran preemptively responded to the President&#8217;s speech with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/?p=58173\">this letter\u00a0<\/a>to the American people. They rightly point out that &#8220;Iran has never initiated a war&#8221;.\u00a0 \u00a0The letter says that the &#8220;Iranian people harbor no enmity toward other nations, including the people of America, Europe, or neighboring countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It is ironic that the Western world is calling Iran barbaric while our leaders talk openly of inflicting as much death and destruction as can be falsely justified; and that they began this war by killing 160 plus school children, mostly young girls in their classrooms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Revealing Statements from Trump&#8217;s Speech Last Night<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58354\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
