Soleimani, Iran's General Washington. Trump, America's mad King George
Boy howdy, Trump has truly pissed off the Arab world this time. "It's
as if, back in 1776, that crazy King George III of England had somehow
managed to pop a cap on General George Washington," said a friend of
mine yesterday. "People are furious in the Middle East right now. There's no do-overs here. The colonists are truly up in arms now!" https://resistancenews.org/2020/01/08/iran-strikes-us-bases-in-iraq-to-avenge-martyr-soleimani-threatens-to-target-israel-and-us-bases-in-the-region-al-manar/
It seems that Iranians are sick and tired of "Taxation without
Representation" when it comes to their freedom (and their oil too, of
course). Who can blame them? John Hancock would have also hated sanctions. If some crazy monarch on the other side of the ocean had murdered
Hancock's top general and sanctioned all his tea, he too would
have left Valley Forge and crossed the Strait of Hormuz.
But enough about analogies. You get the point. It has been absolute
insanity for Trump to piss off the entire Middle East (and Russia, China
and the rest of the world as well) by murdering General Soleimani in
cold blood -- especially considering America's own history of demanding
self-rule.
And now Trump has got almost everyone in West Asia shouting "Give me liberty or give me death!"
