Let's put this to rest, shall we?

When Trump started his Iran #WarOfChoice , he lost all claim to "deserve" the #NobelPeacePrize

Farhad A.May 3

How dare he post about the Nobel prize winner savior of the nation, Obama with damning facts?

Trump is the only one breaking the rules.

His war was illegal, Libya and Yugoslavia were justified #NATO backed "liberation" operations.

British Prime Minister:
"People should not assume that reopening the Strait of Hormuz will restore the country's economic conditions to normal."

The Strait — through which one-fifth of the world's oil normally passes — has now become a tense arena due to US decisions, disrupting economies worldwide

Reopening isn't enough. The damage is done.

US State Department Spokesperson to Al Jazeera: President Trump has made his goals clear, which are that Iran cannot obtain a nuclear weapon.
__•__ Our primary goal is that the Iranian regime does not acquire a nuclear weapon.

This is so infuriating.

Repeating a lie over and over again doesn't make it true.

They really pushing Iran to have no other choice than going for a nuclear weapon like north Korea.
