For decades, American foreign policy in the Middle East has driven a catastrophic cycle of short-sighted interventions, routinely replacing stability with chaos and creating the very enemies we later spent trillions to fight.

Our destructive patterns began with Truman helping Europeans get rid of Jews and relocate them to Palestine👇in 1948. Then came Iran 1953, when the United States recklessly orchestrated the overthrow of Iran’s democratically elected Prime Minister, Mohammad Mossadegh. By forcefully restoring the authoritarian Shah, we permanently shattered Iran's democratic trajectory and sowed the seeds of deep-seated anti-American sentiment that culminated in the 1979 Revolution.

Instead of learning from this huge blunder, we doubled down on reckless realpolitik by actively backing Saddam Hussein during Iraq's brutal eight-year war against Iran in the 1980s. In a dizzying policy reversal, we later turned on our former ally, invaded Iraq (which Netanyahu & Zionists had been after), and killed Saddam. This profound strategic failure completely destabilized the region, ultimately strengthening Iran by paving the way for a Shia-controlled Iraqi government aligned with Tehran.

The security vacuum created by the Iraq War also gave rise to ISIS, plunging the region into a humanitarian nightmare. This single intervention resulted in the tragic deaths of over one million Iraqis, the loss of 4,500 U.S. service members, injuries to 50,000 more, and a staggering $3+ trillion wasted down the drain.

A similarly disastrous pattern played out in Afghanistan. In the 1980s, we armed the Mujahideen—including figures like Osama bin Laden—with sophisticated Stinger missiles to fight the Soviet Union which had ventured 9 futile years into Afghanistan, inadvertently and stupidly, we laid the groundwork for Al-Qaeda (I bet many are surprised to hear this). We then spent the next 20 years fighting the Taliban in America's longest war, wasting another $3-4 trillion, only for the Taliban to return to power.

Now, despite an undeniable track record of self-defeating interventions, we are once again repeating these dangerous patterns with Iran (another wet dream of Netanyahu & Zionists). This relentless, destructive cycle of foreign policy must stop before it inflicts further catastrophic damage. We must reject Zionists and war mongering zealots that keep benefiting at our expense!

Lastly, Four-Star General Wesley Clark talks about the unbelievable “memo” he saw at the Pentagon 25 years ago shortly after 9/11–which seems to have come to fruition (I added Clark’s video at the end of the Truman video👇)
