Kriegsfürst 2

Die Stimmung des US-Präsidenten in Bezug auf den gewonnenen Iran-Krieg ist starken Schwankungen unterworfen. Zwischen einer großzügigen Aussetzung von Kriegsverbrechen –

As per Iranian Government request, please let this statement serve to represent that I am pausing the period of Energy Plant destruction by 10 Days to Monday, April 6, 2026, at 8 P.M., Eastern Time. Talks are ongoing and, despite erroneous statements to the contrary by the Fake News Media, and others, they are going very well. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

– und wütenden Drohungen –

The United States of America is in serious discussions with A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME to end our Military Operations in Iran. Great progress has been made but, if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately Open for Business, we will conclude our lovely stay in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet touched. This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime’s 47 year Reign of Terror. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

– liegen oft nur wenige Stunden und eine distanzierte Antwort der Islamischen Republik Iran auf seine Pläne, neue Provokationen nicht nur der spanischen –

Die spanische Regierung hat den Luftraum des Landes für alle Flugzeuge gesperrt, die mit dem Krieg der USA und Israels gegen Iran in Verbindung stehen

Diese Maßnahme ist Teil der Entscheidung der spanischen Regierung, sich an diesem einseitig begonnenen Krieg, der gegen das Völkerrecht verstößt, nicht zu beteiligen und ihn nicht zu unterstützen, erklärte der stellvertretende Ministerpräsident und Wirtschaftsminister Carlos Cuerpo im Interview mit dem Radiosender Cadena Ser.

– sondern auch der französischen Feiglinge –

The Country of France wouldn’t let planes headed to Israel, loaded up with military supplies, fly over French territory. France has been VERY UNHELPFUL with respect to the Butcher of Iran, who has been successfully eliminated! The U.S.A. will REMEMBER!!! President DJT

– oder eine wenig hilfreiche Predigt des unangenehm pazifistischen Papstes (Jesus does not listen to prayers of those who wage war) aus Chicago.

Angesichts dieser Kombination von Widerspenstigkeit, Undankbarkeit und mangelnder Courage kann man schon mal ein wenig die Contenance verlieren:

All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT

Maybe Trump does not understand the link between the past and the present, but other people do. They can see that, as a result of decisions that Trump made but cannot explain, the Strait of Hormuz is blocked by Iranian mines and drones. They can see oil prices rising around the world and they understand that it is difficult and dangerous for the U.S. Navy to solve this problem. They can also hear the president lashing out, as he has done so many times before, trying to get other people to take responsibility, threatening them if they don’t.

NATO faces a very bad future if it doesn’t help clear the strait, Trump told the Financial Times, apparently forgetting that the United States founded the organization and has led it since its creation in 1949. He has also said he is not asking but ordering seven countries to help. He did not specify which ones. I’m demanding that these countries come in and protect their own territory, because it is their territory, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on the way from Florida to Washington. It’s the place from which they get their energy. Actually it isn’t their territory, and it’s his fault that their energy is blocked.

But in Trump’s mind, these threats are justified: He has a problem right now, so he wants other countries to solve it. He doesn’t seem to remember or care what he said to their leaders last month or last year, nor does he know how his previous decisions shaped public opinion in their countries or harmed their interests. But they remember, they care, and they know.

Specifically, they remember that for 14 months, the American president has tariffed them, mocked their security concerns, and repeatedly insulted them. As long ago as January 2020, Trump told several European officials that if Europe is under attack, we will never come to help you and to support you. In February 2025, he told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that he had no right to expect support either, because you don’t have any cards. Trump ridiculed Canada as the 51st state and referred to both the present and previous Canadian prime ministers as governor. He claimed, incorrectly, that allied troops in Afghanistan stayed a little back, a little off the front lines, causing huge offense to the families of soldiers who died fighting after NATO invoked Article 5 of the organization’s treaty, on behalf of the United States, the only time it has done so. He called the British our once-great ally, after they refused to participate in the initial assault on Iran; when they discussed sending some aircraft carriers to the Persian Gulf conflict earlier this month, he ridiculed the idea on social media: We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won!

Die New York Times charakterisiert das Schwanken zwischen leeren Drohungen, Absurditäten und hilfloser Eskalation wie immer recht vornehm:

Standoff With Iran Raises Fresh Doubts About Trump’s Freestyle Diplomacy. A jumble of emissaries — a friend, a family member, a dove and a hawk — on the Iran crisis reflects President Trump’s improvisational approach.

– während sich in der MAGA-Bewegung kleine Meinungsverschiedenheiten zeigen:

A generational divide over the Iran war has emerged between older attendees and their political heirs at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Texas, as the group’s leaders pleaded for unity ahead of a challenging midterm election year for Republicans.

Younger conservatives spoke of disappointment and even betrayal over Donald Trump’s launch of strikes against Iran, saying that the president’s actions run counter to his many pledges to oppose foreign entanglements.

Meanwhile, older conservatives were looking past Trump’s campaign criticism of military action to topple foreign regimes, arguing the war in Iran is a pragmatic act forced by threats to the US.

Man sollte andererseits die strategische TACO-Reserve des Präsidenten nicht unterschätzen:

President Trump told aides he’s willing to end the U.S. military campaign against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, administration officials said, likely extending Tehran’s firm grip on the waterway and leaving a complex operation to reopen it for a later date.

Um Mr. Farrar zu zitieren:

Well, I’d like to see ol Donny Trump wriggle his way out of THIS jam!
*Trump wriggles his way out of the jam easily
Ah! Well. Nevertheless,
