what would drugs in Iran being illegal have to do with gov officials there being big users and screwing up everything they do like drug users do? Lol     Every decision they make lately is classic drug fueled.  

Grin

just for grins and giggles........  classic dumb-down tactics
Quote:It is estimated also that Iran consumes 17 tons of heroin annually; this is 5% of global consumption. Iran has the highest rate of abuse of opiates in the world (6,7). In recent years, there has been increased use of heroin, crystal methamphetamine, and ecstasy.

So Trump has made his major decision, and it is basically what everyone has been saying since the begin of this mess. 
Quote:The decision does not signal the end of military preparations, as US forces remain positioned to resume operations on short notice if negotiations fail or Iran escalates the conflict.
Speaking at the White House, Trump stressed that the United States remains "locked and loaded" but argued that reaching an agreement would be the "smarter strategy."

Back to the biweekly flipflop on Iran containment policy.

But the reserves are running dry. So the flipflop will have to stop, and either Trump turns tail or America’s butcher’s bill really starts to mount up.

It also has a huge drug problem, which I bet the West does whatever it can to increase. Even so, only a self-blinded MAGA moron could imagine that the Iranian leadership is also into drugs.

Trump’s Venezuelan and other Latin American pals, on the other hand...

Then don’t answer him, Oldcarpy2.

Let him spew. What does it matter? He never says anything of relevance or value. And this isn’t the UN Security Council or the Hague or even the lickspittle US Congress; it’s a tiny niche website where people come to waste their time arguing with each other on issues over which they have no control and, usually, very little knowledge.

Obviously no-one takes him seriously except for his one-person fan club, so why bother? Ignore him and deny him the oxygen of attention he clearly desires so desperately.

I see the American politicians and their Zionist elitist donors are continuing the demonization campaign, this time with the enemy being drugged up.

All leaders do it, like Putin when he labelled Ukrainians as Nazis. They need war and then manufacture it.

"The United States employs a strategy of "demonizing the enemy" to justify military intervention by characterizing foreign nations as existential threats, thereby mobilizing domestic support and framing aggression as defensive.  This process, often described by critics as the "Frankenstein theory," involves creating or amplifying negative perceptions of states like the Soviet Union, Iraq, and China to legitimize imperialist foreign policies and maintain national solidarity. 
Key mechanisms include:
  • Rhetorical Demonization: Leaders use charged language such as "axis of evil," "terrorist," and "catastrophic threat" to incite fear. For example, the George W. Bush administration characterized IranIraq, and North Korea as grave dangers to justify the Iraq War, despite later admissions that Iraq lacked weapons of mass destruction. 
  • Fabrication of Threats: The U.S. has been accused of fabricating or exaggerating threats to replace former adversaries like the Soviet Union. Critics argue that the narrative surrounding the Iraq War and the labeling of the virus as the "Chinese Virus" under the Trump administration were tactics to shift blame and justify expansionist interests. 
  • Historical Precedent and Covert Action: Since the post-WWII era, the U.S. has initiated hundreds of armed conflicts, often justifying them with "just war" rhetoric or democratic ideals while engaging in covert regime changes and election manipulations. This interventionism is sustained by a culture that views external enemies as necessary for national unity, dating back to the frontier expansion against Native Americans. 
  • Media and Propaganda: Collaboration with Hollywood and state institutions produces propaganda that glorifies military action and obscures the complexities of international relations, reinforcing the perception of the U.S. as a benevolent actor against evil aggressors. 
Critics argue this approach creates a vicious cycle of conflict, where the U.S. demonizes nations it has historically interfered with (such as Iran via Operation Ajax or Russia via NATO expansion), leading to destabilization and further justification for continued military engagement. " AI
