'Trump always chickens out'? NOT THIS TIME..... I don't think we should use that term tonight--
when the decision was clearly RIGHT, for once---- to not initiate a GENOCIDE against nearly 100 million people in Iran,
many of whom OPPOSE their current government,
and instead allow diplomacy to work, for once---
To say that he 'chickened out' is to imply that he
should have acted upon his promised threats--- which would have resulted in the deaths
of millions of innocent Iranians---- including those who oppose their current regime
wiping out their electric power plants and numerous bridges, with conventional weapons
as well as water plants would have effectively mimicked the results of a nuclear attack,
without using any nukes at all-- (minus the fallout)
but created a total humanitarian disaster in Iran....
and made the country "unlivable" --- no electricity, no clean water, no refridgeration of food....
and NO PRAISE of Trump here---- all his prior words are subject to condemnation and scorn!!!
(and are deserving of such)
BUT----- I don't think he should be 'mocked' for avoiding
committing a genocide which he threatened to commit,
before somebody talked him 'off the cliff'---
wait, I mean he possibly shouldn't be mocked for 'making the correct decision'---
Whether the orange geezer should be mocked for
having said those things in the first place,
that is a different thing and 'fair game' as I am concerned,
but it is a thin red line.....
(anybody recognize my movie reference there? story of the battles over Guadalcanal!)
Pardon my post--- I was seriously worried that the demented orange geezer
would initiate actions tonight which could precipitate World War Three---
so now I hope we have a reprieve of at least two weeks---
for which I am grateful!
(That's another two weeks for some Republicans to possibly come to their senses---
although I don't necessarily have much faith in that!)
= new reply since forum marked as read
and self-proclaimed 'christians' have been WORSHIPPING THEIR ANTICHRIST
for far too long !!!!!!
which he swore to commit if he didn't get his way---
As far as being mocked and hopefully prosecuted for making the threats in the first place, ALL SYSTEMS GO!
But to call this another 'TACO' is to imply that Trump was
'too weak to commence with committing a genocide'.
In that context, I would hope that every decent human being
would be convicted of being "too weak" or even "chickening out" from commencing a genocide...
(not that I think that Trump is a decent human being!!!)
thus I think that using this particular meme in this ONE instance
is mistaken and wrongheaded, and could imply that we think he SHOULD have
taken out Iran's electricity and infrastructure, which of course we DON'T believe---
Now as far as being like an 'abused spouse' who didn't know
whether to believe Trump's ultimately false threat in this instance,
I plead guilty..... but as I read on another site about spousal abuse,
'maybe the time you don't take it seriously is just before you get killed'!!
I am well aware of all the times that Trump backed down from his many threats---
but he is clearly becoming so demented and mentally deranged that
he could eventually slip off from his own 'playbook'
and actually ORDER 'the thing' to be done which he threatened---
believing in his own lying rhetoric and forgetting that it was supposed to be
just a 'threat'---
and WHO in his hand-picked administration of yes-men/women and sycophants
would be there to tell him "no" ??
Oh well.... I can't stop the avalanche of TACO references now,
although I believe I am right in this ONE particular instance----
HOWEVER, it HAS made me extremely hungry for my home-made tacos,
which I have been planning to make for some time,
and believe to be superior (in my own taste)
to anything available commercially (and less expensive!)
Maybe tomorrow--- in which case it would be 'Taco Thursday' !
