When #Iran|ian officials said, there where no talks with the #TrumpAdministration, #DonaldTrump said, he talked to "a top guy" but "not the Ayatollah".

Of course not–of course, the Ayatollah is a bottom.

Not only this ⬇️ in the following quote, but Thump’s minions are paying TOP DOLLAR to the alleged enemy!
“Trump has lifted sanctions on Iranian oil, so he is literally paying Iran not to surrender. This on top of also doing the same with Iran's ally, Russia.”

Interview: A War for Oil: US Quest to Control the World’s Oil Trade

"Trump opted to attack Iran despite progress at indirect US-Iran negotiations."

The reason "has nothing to do with its getting an atom bomb". The reason is US control of oil.

"The Trump administration may've been after the ability to turn off the power to countries that don’t follow US foreign policy".

A War for Oil: Economist Michael Hudson on U.S. Quest to Control the World’s Oil Trade

We speak with economist Michael Hudson, who details how President Trump opted to attack Iran despite progress at indirect U.S.-Iran negotiations. “The whole reason that America has attacked Iran has nothing to do with its getting an atom bomb,” but instead the aim was U.S. control of oil, says Hudson. The Trump administration may have been after the ability to “turn off the power” to countries that don’t follow U.S. foreign policy, he says.
