The "success" of Trump's Iran war in four headlines

1: Americans doing business in The Middle East are forced out of 14 countries.

2: In what appears to be a catastrophic mistargeting, American forces bomb girl's school killing 165, mostly children, while trying to hit the Assef Brigade living quarters, 150 meters from the school.

3: The oil price nearly doubles, harming the US economy and consumer prices further.

4: USA already lost 92,000 jobs in February, so the timing could not be worse.

@randahl I have the feeling that one of their aims is to cause a new refugee crisis (like the one in the mid-2010's), to boost the far-right in Europe, to allow it to take power.

@Enea90 @randahl I was thinking the same. There's also indications that some of the Christian nationalist types who have Trump's ear, are actively trying to bring about Armageddon because they think Jesus is about to return. The aims of the evangelical faction dovetail neatly with those of the disaster capitalists, which should terrify the rest of us.

Trump himself, of course, is just along for the ride because his family will profit from the Presidency no matter what. It's a giant clusterfuck.

@ApostateEnglishman @Enea90 @randahl well if jesus is about to return they may be wise to dig a really deep hole and hide in it.
