Friends + Interlocutors,

Here is the link to my 2011 article—Endstation Iran—concerning Washington’s obsession with Iran. Really, nothing of substance has changed since then, except that we now have an irresponsible POTUS who appears ready to launch a full-scale attack upon Iran. 

The basic issues now are the same as 2011. Read the article. (Some of the links have faded out.) Iran is not working on building nuclear weapons, is not a threat to the U.S., and is not a threat to Israel unless Israel attacks it, which Israel has recently done in coordination with Donald Trump who seems little more than an enthusiastic Israeli puppet. 

It is really a crying shame that so much time and money has been wasted on this fake crisis just so venal American politicians can curry favor from the Israel Lobby. Trump is not alone. He’s just out there in front wanting to take all the credit.
