Very good explanation of why the #IranWar is NOT about #TrumpEpstein Files. Even though the #Epstein case might have had a role to play, the trajectory for war was actually set as early as #Trump's first term with his scrapping of the #JCPOA, and possibly even earlier.
>> The final decision to go to war [in #Iran] appeared to be sudden only because the #US, #Israel and #Gulf countries' strategic trajectories had been converging for nearly a decade.

‘Operation Epic Fury’ – Anatomy Of A War Of Aggression (Media Lens)
In the Guardian, Julian Borger described this latest war as ‘an unprovoked attempt at regime change in collaboration with Israel, with no legal foundation, launched in the midst of diplomatic efforts to avert conflict, and with minimal consultation with Congress or the American public’.

Dans son message sur la situation en Iran, Macron est très timide dans sa condamnation des agresseurs. Il déclare que "nous ne pouvons pas approuver" leurs opérations militaires conduites en dehors du droit international et appelle également Israël à respecter l'intégrité du territoire libanais afin d'éviter une escalade.
Mais la responsabilité première, comme il dit, est rejetée sur l'Iran et ses programmes militaires. Alors que le pays a signé en 2015 un accord multilatéral de non-prolifération nucléaire (JCPoA, ou accord de Vienne) avec les membres du Conseil de sécurité afin de permettre la levée des sanctions. Trump en est sorti trois ans plus tard et les a rétablies, c'est pourquoi l'Iran a relancé l'enrichissement d'uranium.
Macron prétend aussi que les discussions actuelles ne progressaient plus. Le médiateur omanais chargé de négocier un accord entre Washington et Téhéran n'est pas de cet avis. C'est Trump qui a quitté la table, préférant une solution militaire.

He also said, "I don't think any alternative to diplomacy is going to solve this problem."
As Security Council Stalls, There Are Other Ways to Stop US-Israeli War on Iran
Universal jurisdiction also lets other nations prosecute US and Israeli leaders for targeting civilians -- a war crime.#Iran into using a nuclear weapon if it had one, knowing it did not, or develop one.
They've been knowingly & cynically baiting Iran for the past yr, then using the presumed result as pretext for war.
There was never any desire to work out an agreement.
The #JCPOA was working - til Trump blew it up, most likely b/c it was another one of Obama's many successes.
Now we have a mess on our hands.
Our only hope is the Iranian ppl can pull a rabbit out of a hat & turn Trump's dross into gold.
