Trump is looking to strike Iran in yet another aggressive act of international violation.
At the end of last week, a bombshell report released by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) claimed that the Trump administration is readying to bomb Iranian nuclear facilities as early as next month, further claiming that Australia may assist in identifying possible targets.
Currently, US and Iran are in the midst of a trade war. US has proposed sanctions on Iran, and requested many other countries to follow them with the sanctions. Iran responded by threatening to block the Strait of Hormuz, through which 30 to 35 percent of the world’s maritime oil trade passes. Doing so will trigger a economic disaster for the world, which starts will a huge spike up of oil prices.
There is a huge crisis going on between Iran and US.
We should not overlook the fact that a huge military strike plan might be underway, as infamous "mad-man" John Bolton, the national security advisor, claimed a regime change will occur in Iran by the end of this year. If he were to deliver like how Trump has been delivering most of what he said, I'm sure it will be done with some form of force.
The strike into Iran might cause Russia to be involved, and it might trigger a huge international event that we might finally call WW3. We have been at peace for too long, but I hope people do not get too comfortable. Just less than a 100 years ago, people were always fighting one another, and having peace between countries for 10 years was considered a privilege.
If the strike happens, I hope it does not escalate into a full-scale war, and also casualties are minimised.
