Hours after threatening to destroy 52 Iranian sites, President Trump went back on Twitter to brag about two trillion dollars’ worth of ‘beautiful’ US military hardware, which he expects will carry out the destruction.
Facing promises of retaliation for the killing of a popular Iranian general whose death he ordered personally, Donald Trump threatened in no uncertain terms to escalate the conflict further. He said that if Tehran fails to turn the other cheek, the US will hit 52 Iranian sites of great value. Hours later, the US president returned to Twitter to brag about the amount of money the US military has received for equipment under his watch.
“We are the biggest and by far the BEST in the World!” he tweeted, going on to promise that if attacked, the US “will be sending some of that brand new beautiful equipment their way.”

Martin comments: Trump promised “no more wars on foreign soil” and thus far, he’s been seen to seek peaceful solutions. This latest move is more in line with the old Bush “shock and awe” talk. But, is it just talk? Is this just Trump using his standard Tweeting diversions? Remember there’s always young master Jared Kushner lurking and smirking in the background and an attack on Iran would no doubt please Israel no end. A Zionist wet dream in fact. The other factor is the usual profit to arms manufacturers (and shareholders and financial recipients thereof: Take note that Barack Obama has been referred to as “the best gun salesman on the planet”).
The next move will be very interesting and telling!
