TRUMP APPROVES STRIKES ON IRAN BUT ABRUPTLY PULLED BACK
Battle for the World
The operation was underway, said senior administration official, in its early stages when it was abruptly called off. Planes were in the air and ships were in position to launch attack, but that no missiles were fired yet when word came to stand down.
The sudden reversal halt what would have been the president’s third military action against targets in the Middle East. President Trump had struck twice at targets in Syria, in 2017 and 2018.
(BattleForWorld: Netanyahu of Israel is not happy, because he was betting on this military strike against Iran. More provocations by the US and Israel for Iran ahead. The ruling elites are in a posture of war – relentless war. Do they still believe that their secret bunkers will protect them?
And did President Trump finally come to realization that Iran’s military targeting skills had increased in sophistication, able to detect stealth planes [yes it did; the drone was targeted in stealth mode and shot down]; and that Iran if attacked, would not have backed down. And would target positions in Israel with effective means, etc. So the limited strike attack on Iran by the US would expand into something far greater. Did Mike Pompeo lied to President Trump about the intended strike being limited, knowing full well it wasn’t going to be? Because all Mike Pompeo and Netanyahu need is Trump’s go ahead to start the war and the dynamics become more complex as the president is already trapped.)
