David Rothkopf:
"Once, we had wars of choice. Today, we have wars of distraction.
Call the catastrophically misguided wars in Iran and Venezuela the Epstein Wars.
These were not wars fought to defend national security. They were not wars fought to advance national interests.
They were wars conjured up not by generals or seasoned foreign policy advisors but by a frightened old man and his PR team to distract from a scandal he fears will be his undoing."

@AkaSci the manipulation of markets and theft and control of oil and U235 are just opportunistic add-ons?
Could be, but I suspect there is a whole roiling nest of crime involved, not just the #Epstein stuff.

Flooding the zone… every single day. Trump is a con man that should be in jail by now.

@AkaSci Trump may claim he won the Iran war, but it was a defeat. The victor doesn't pay the loser. Trump insults old allies. From the outside, the US has never been so weak. He abolished USAID, thanks to which the US was considered the good guys. China does nothing and wins.
