Will Trump Use a Nuclear Weapon Against Iran?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/h1>"},"content":{"rendered":"

By Joachim Hagopian<\/p>\n

Much of my August 15th\u00a0<\/sup>\u201cDepopulation Countdown<\/a>\u201d expos\u00e9, that includes use of the word \u201cnuclear\u201d 21 times, heavily emphasizes that America\u2019s Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump, growing so desperate for a strategic way out of the Middle East war he started, is within a few days or a week very likely to bomb Iran with tactical nuclear weapons. This August 18th<\/sup>\u00a0update article is now presenting the overwhelming evidence of the strong likelihood that an imminent US nuclear attack will occur at any moment. Not only am I near certain of this reality, but fellow West Point graduate-former Green Beret officer turned outspoken geopolitics critic, Ret. Lt. Col.\u00a0Anthony Aguilar<\/a>\u00a0in an hourlong interview yesterday August 17th<\/sup>, also expounded on this exact same conclusion.<\/p>\n

Trump is intent on deploying a tactical nuclear weapon in a face-saving, futile attempt to destroy Iran\u2019s nuclear facility underneath Pickaxe Mountain. Lt. Col. Aguilar stated that regardless of the nuclear warhead America uses, Iran\u2019s underground facilities deeply embedded under mountains will not successfully penetrate and destroy Iran\u2019s nuclear sites. Ever-astute journalist\u00a0Mike Adams<\/a>, along with numerous other news sites, has also been quick to pick up on this most alarming matter, posting an August 17th<\/sup>\u00a0piece entitled \u201cTrump Is Reportedly Considering Nuclear War with Iran \u2014 and We\u2019re All in the Crosshairs.\u201d It turns out that the now ex-Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene posted also on August 17th<\/sup>\u00a0this very same urgent warning on\u00a0x.com<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n

They\u00a0<\/em>[the Trump administration]\u00a0are discussing using nuclear weapons on Iran in strategy meetings.<\/em><\/p>\n

When insider and now ex-Trump MAGA supporter MJT unloads this bombshell, trying to alert the world to what\u2019s now critically at stake, astute people everywhere should be paying attention to how close we all are to that slippery sloped edge of the nuclear cliff the human race is now precariously teetering on.<\/p>\n

Of course, within hours the current\u00a0White House<\/a>\u00a0that will go down as the most deceitful, corrupt, disastrous White House ever in all of US history, immediately tried refuting Marjorie\u2019s statement:<\/p>\n

In a statement to USA TODAY, the White House called her \u201cMarjorie \u2018Quitter\u2019 Greene\u201d and said she was \u201ccompletely out of the loop\u201d in response to her comments.<\/em><\/p>\n

With the 60-day Memorandum of Understanding signed June 17th<\/sup>\u00a0now as of Monday a shattered peace deal, last Friday August 14th<\/sup>, delusional Trump still trying to convince the world that the US controls the Strait having defeated Iran, wrote on\u00a0Truth Social<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Fake News Media hates to report how well the United States Military has done against Iran, which is totally defeated and wants a deal \u2013 But not a deal that I would accept!<\/em><\/p>\n

Still committed to applying maximal pressure on Iran\u2019s \u201cunconditional surrender,\u201d Trump continues insisting the US controls the Strait of Hormuz when the entire world knows it\u2019s false. The world sees for itself that Tehran obviously is still in control. Yet on Monday August 17th<\/sup>, Trump restated<\/a>\u00a0his claim:<\/p>\n

We control it with the blockade. And, I like the idea of declaring it a US territory.<\/em>\u00a0Just think it\u2019s a great idea. I mean, we control it. We control it with the blockade.<\/em><\/p>\n

No sooner does Orange Face repeat the bogus claim, another ship trying to transit the Strait gets its engine room blasted by \u201can unknown projectile\u201d injuring at least one crewman. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister\u00a0Kazem Gharibabadi<\/a>\u00a0responded:<\/p>\n

This strait will only be opened and closed under Iran\u2019s command, and as long as you do not accept the reality of defeat and stop indulging in delusions, Iran will continue to enforce the blockade. Strait of Hormuz cannot be seized by tweet, nor by aircraft carrier, nor by issuing an order, nor by an election speech.<\/em><\/p>\n

While two weeks ago Iran said Oman and Iran were in the\u00a0final stage<\/a>\u00a0of negotiating an agreement on administrating all Hormuz Strait shipping navigation, on Monday August 17th<\/sup>\u00a0in conversation with\u00a0Fox News<\/em>\u00a0reporter Trey Yingst, Khazarian mafia don\u00a0Trump said<\/a>\u00a0about US ally and peace mediator Oman:<\/p>\n

If Oman gets in the way, we\u2019ll bomb the shit out of them.<\/em><\/p>\n

Again, never before has such a mafioso thug ever occupied the White House and damaged America\u2019s reputation before the world as this masonic Chabad death cult genocidal accomplice puppet. Trump is showing his incapacity to cope with his job demands. On Sunday August 16th<\/sup>\u00a0he wrote on\u00a0Truth Social<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Based on my very good relationship with Kim Jong Un, of North Korea, I am not happy with the fact that the United States has, long ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military Exercises with South Korea. These exercises are not only costly, with much of these costs paid for by the United States of America (as usual!), but send a signal that is totally inappropriate and hostile, to a Country that, as long as Donald J. Trump has been President, has been unthreatening and respectful.<\/em><\/p>\n

As Trump dampens and sours another relationship with a longtime ally South Korea, on Monday August 17th<\/sup>\u00a0after the annual joint exercises had already begun, touchy Trump lashed out in another\u00a0tantrum<\/a>\u00a0at a press hearing against another female CNN reporter Kristen Holmes. She simply asked the totally legitimate, reasonable question that begs, if not demands an answer, asking if Trump canceled the joint US-South Korea military exercises due to his cordial relations with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. In a tirade he shut her down with repeated loud demands \u201cbe quiet!\u201d Trump is holding a personal petty grudge against both female reporters asking uncomfortable questions as well as against allies like South Korea for refusing to back his insane war against Iran. Keep in mind also that Trump\u2019s unconditional loyalty (or is it his\u00a0pedo-blackmail<\/a>?) to the evilest country on earth \u2013 Israel, had him in April 2025 pull THAAD and Patriot missile\u00a0defense systems<\/a>\u00a0from South Korea shipped to Israel just two months prior to their unprovoked 12-day war against Iran last year.<\/p>\n

Every single public appearance, and written and spoken statement is exposing Donald Trump\u2019s madness as an increasing unstable danger and threat to all of humanity with his fixation to destroy Iran with nukes at the expense of both America and every life form inhabiting the earth. Again, it\u2019s time for Vice President JD Vance to finally grow some balls and evoke the 25th<\/sup>\u00a0Amendment. Last week Vance made the public statement emphatically emphasizing how the Trump administration\u2019s #1 top priority was to keep the\u00a0price of oil and gas<\/a>\u00a0down for Americans and #2 was ensuring Iran doesn\u2019t develop nuclear weapons. So, what does Trump do? On Monday morning Trump contradicts and publicly embarrasses his VP, correcting him, restating his top priority is Iran never getting nukes.<\/p>\n

The threat level of this earthshaking catastrophe of nuclear war waged against Iran has been around for some time, covered by solidly backed sources and real-world signs. As the grand finale of the 12-Day War in June 2025, the US bombed Iran\u2019s nuclear sites at Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan. Ever since Trump has boasted every chance he gets how he singlehandedly eliminated Iran\u2019s nuclear capability. Literally just hours ahead of those Trump ordered airstrikes last year on Iran\u2019s underground nuclear facilities,\u00a0The New Republic<\/a><\/em>\u00a0ran the June 20th<\/sup>\u00a0headline:<\/p>\n

Trump White House Considers Dropping Nukes on Iran<\/em><\/p>\n

So, we\u2019ve been at this brink before. But never before has desperado Trump been out of options to end, much less \u201cwin\u201d a war that he began against Iran under the persuasive dictates of Netanyahu and his Mossad Director\u00a0David Barnea<\/a>, who convinced him at the White House on February 11th<\/sup>\u00a0to join Israel\u2019s decapitation strike on February 28th<\/sup>\u00a0because Iran\u2019s authoritarian government was deemed most vulnerable with its failing economy and citizens ripe for change under the promise of \u201cfreedom and democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moreover, according to the 2001\u00a0Nuclear Posture Review<\/a>\u00a0(NPR), later approved by the U.S. Congress:<\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/em>[George W}\u00a0Bush administration, in a secret policy review\u2026 [had]\u00a0ordered the Pentagon to draft contingency plans for the use of nuclear weapons against at least seven countries,\u00a0naming not only Russia and the \u201caxis of evil\u201d Iraq, Iran, and North Korea but also China, Libya and Syria.<\/em><\/p>\n

So, the pre-emptive strike nuclear option doctrine\u2019s been graphically spelled out in the nuclear option playbook since the mid-1990s by Washington\u2019s warmongering policymakers, some of who I addressed in my last article. Noted journalist, author and analyst William Arkin\u2019s March 2002\u00a0Los Angeles Times<\/a><\/em>\u00a0bombshell titled \u201cSecret Plan Outline the Unthinkable,\u201d explicitly exposing the NPR:<\/p>\n

The U.S. Defense Department has been told to prepare for the possibility that\u00a0nuclear weapons may be required in some future Arab-Israeli crisis.<\/strong>\u00a0And, it is to develop plans for using nuclear weapons to retaliate against chemical or biological attacks, as well as \u201csurprising military developments\u201d of an unspecified nature. Like all such documents since the dawning of the Atomic Age more than a half-century ago, this NPR offers a chilling glimpse into the world of nuclear-war planners: With a Strangelovian genius,\u00a0they cover every conceivable circumstance in which a president might wish to use nuclear weapons\u2013planning in great detail for a war they hope never to wage<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0<\/strong>[including against non-nuclear nations].<\/p>\n

My friend and editor at\u00a0Global Research<\/em>,\u00a0Michel Chossudovsky<\/a>, who gave me my start as a\u00a0journalist<\/a>\u00a0a dozen years ago, wrote a chilling article 15 years ago entitled \u201cPreparing to Attack Iran with Nuclear Weapons: \u201cNo Option can be taken off the Table.\u201d An except spells out today\u2019s jarring headlines:<\/p>\n

The US and its allies are preparing to launch a nuclear war directed against Iran with devastating consequences\u2026<\/em>\u00a0Iran is heralded as a threat to Israel and the World.\u00a0The war on Iran has been on the drawing board of the Pentagon for more than eight years\u00a0<\/em>[i.e., since 2003]. In recent developments, a renewed set of threats and accusations directed against Tehran have been launched. A \u201cwar of stealth\u201d has already commenced. Mossad intelligence operatives are on the ground. Covert paramilitary formations are being launched inside Iran, CIA drones are being deployed. Meanwhile, Washington. London, Brussels and Tel Aviv have launched specific destabilizing initiatives\u00a0\u201cto choke Iran diplomatically, financially and economically\u201d<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Note how closely this provocation, word-for-word parallels the buildup of events in the 2026 Iran war. That\u2019s because the playbook has been around for at least 30 years. Every other previous US president resisted the Zionist Jewish State\u2019s pressure, until Chabad Jew Trump steeped in blackmail and bribery by his Zionist Jewish donors, owners and masters.<\/p>\n

So, after near six-months stuck in an unwinnable lost war that\u2019s been destroying Trump, his legacy, the nation and world, without sufficient conventional weapons to \u201cfinish the job,\u201d having run out of options, Trump\u2019s only plausible scheme left in his demented mind to claim victory is a limited tactical nuclear strike. It will mark America\u2019s second time using nuclear weapons in back-to-back world wars, plotted over a century and a half ago by the same Illuminati\u00a0Freemason elites<\/a>\u00a0as Zionist vs. Islam World War III, and first nuclear deployment since Truman\u2019s Hiroshima-Nagasaki WWII ending in August 1945. It\u2019s growing ominously closer as the loose cannon has gone\u00a0full bonkers<\/a>. Trump appears bent on using nukes as his only means of saving face and declaring victory. That it causes millions, perhaps\u00a0billions<\/a>\u00a0to die matters little to psychopaths like Trump and his Satanic death cult masters.<\/p>\n

Under the growing threat of full graphic exposure of Trump\u2019s Epstein child sodomy ventures, as Netanyahu and City of London\u2019s exclusive ace in the hole control, is blackmailing him to nuke Tehran. He appears to rapidly be moving towards that as his done deal. But if Trump somehow fails to follow through, leave it to Butcher\u2019s Sampson option, possessing Luciferian delight to complying with his higher paygrade masters\u2019\u00a0demands<\/a>. Since\u00a0Israel<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0US<\/a>\u00a0are the false flag kingpins, and virtually all their wars are started with false flags, it may well be the excuse to launch a nuclear attack on Iran. Israel will resort to the lowest of the lowest to destroy America for the\u00a0Greater Israel Project<\/a>. After all, Rothschild Jewish State founders and their bloodline Satanic secret society friends have been worshipping Satan a very long time for their big bang blood sacrifice ritual not to happen. Going out this way falls perfectly on time and in line with humanity\u2019s\u00a0depopulation scheme<\/a>, outlined in my August 15th<\/sup>\u00a0post.<\/p>\n
