Trump's Handlers?


President Trump is now being accused of being weak and vacillating for scraping the Iran deal by passing the decision back to Congress. But what if Trump is being clever because he knows Congress won't cross the Israeli lobby who want to destroy Iran, so he won't have to take the blame alone for scraping the Iran deal?

The one area where Trump does seem consistent is in supporting Israel, even to the point of turning his back on the nationalism that got him elected. He was going to move away from the neoconservatives and bring the troops and the corporations home. He was going to stop going abroad in search of monsters, who seem to have been defined by Israel. The Big Media will not even speak on this subject---one would think they share the same handlers?

Will populist nationalism have to wait for another leader more courageous than Trump, one more like Pat Buchanan, who was probably destroyed by the same handlers who Trump now fortifies?

I am not anti-Semitic, I believe Israel should  have its own secure ethnostate, like every other distinctive ethnic group. Israel doesn't have to always be walking on the edge of disaster praising its own chutzpah, even though it thinks it requires that behavior.  Empire building with international intrigues by all parties has got to be curbed, and real decentralization has got to happen, if any of us are going to survive and evolve on this planet.
