Isolated on the international level and viewed by the world as the source of all evil, the administration of Donald Trump, having lost all commonsense, is clearly on a suicidal course.
The sooner the regime in the Washington destroys itself the better for world peace and the security of mankind, including the 327 million people living in the US.
In their death throes, however, Trump and his team of thugs, through their clumsy acts of terrorism, are exposing themselves to be the most crazy criminals, as was evident last Thursday when on hearing the firm response from Iran of the futility of any talks with the US, the CENTCOM terrorists triggered another set of blasts, following last May’s sabotage of 4 oil tankers off the coast of Fujairah. This time they targeted two oil tankers passing through the crucial Strait of Hormoz in a vain bid to lay the blame on the Islamic Republic.
What a bunch of idiotic elements they are! Frustrated at the fruitful discussions that Japanese Prime Minister and his delegation held in Tehran with their Iranian hosts on a wide variety of issues of mutual cooperation, including Shinoza Abe’s cordial meeting with the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, and the latter’s rational explanation that the lawless, untrustworthy, and unprincipled Trump doesn’t deserve any reply to his dubious message, the enraged Americans targeted a Japanese tanker.
The intention was to insult Premier Abe for his praise of Islamic values and the fatwa of Ayatollah Khamenei prohibiting manufacture of any weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear bombs, during his press conference with President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday that nailed the lie of the US administration.
Perhaps, some of the harebrained CENTCOM terrorists, or their proxies in the region, such as the Saudis and the Israelis, may have thought that by choosing a Japanese vessel for their act of sabotage and then laying the blame on Iran through release of a grainy video of a barely visible person abroad a small supposedly Iranian boat removing an object (allegedly an unexploded mine), from the Kokuka Courageous after it had suffered the blast, they would cause a strain in Tehran-Tokyo ties.
The Japanese government and the Japanese people are too wise to bite the bait, especially after having been the victims of US terrorism during World War 2 when the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were razed to the ground by American atomic bombs.
Following the usual blaming of Iran by the gangster Mike Pompeo and his boss, Trump, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi noted on Friday: "While Japan’s prime minister is meeting with the number one figure of the Islamic Republic of Iran to reduce tensions, which clandestine hands seek to undermine these efforts in the region and who benefit from it?”
Moreover, the Japanese ship operator on Friday disputed the US claims, saying sailors on board the Kokuka Courageous saw "flying objects” just before the attack, suggesting the tanker wasn’t damaged by mines.
The claim by the CENTCOM terrorists of rushing to the rescue of the damaged tankers and evacuating their crew also turned out to be a lie when Iranian TV channels showed clear footages of crew members of the tankers relaxing on Jask Island after their rescue by Iranian vessels.
A habitual liar, Trump has lost all credibility, and no one believes his words and that of his team of thugs – neither the traditional US allies, the West Europeans nor the majority of US people.
Iran’s principled stance is crystal clear for the whole world. As long as the CENTCOM terrorists continue their filthy presence, the region, unfortunately, will be wracked by more such acts of terrorism.
