Tillerson Fird by Trump. Pompeo in. War vs Iran more likely

[hater]

Read this 6 months ago nigas. Pretty spot on

Earlier today, the corporate media reported Rex Tillerson will probably get booted from the State Department and be replaced by Mike Pompeo, currently CIA director. Rumor has it Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas will replace Pompeo at the CIA.
This news provides more evidence of the rapid neoconization of the Trump administration. Both Pompeo and Cotton are ardent anti-Iran fanatics.

[hater]

Mike Pompeo originally supported Marco Rubio — a neocon operative masquerading as a civil servant — for president. Not only does Pompeo support direct confrontation with Iran, he is also an enthusiastic supporter of the surveillance state.
“Congress should pass a law re-establishing collection of all metadata, and combining it with publicly available financial and lifestyle information into a comprehensive, searchable database. Legal and bureaucratic impediments to surveillance should be removed,” he wrote for the Wall Street Journal.

[hater]

Like most of his Republican colleagues and no shortage of Democrats, Pompeo believes WikiLeaks is “a non-state hostile intelligence service often abetted by state actors like Russia.”
No evidence — but then with a Mockingbird corporate media reading from government scripts, none is required.
If this comes to pass — neocons in control of the State Department and the CIA — how long will it be before the Make America Great Again crowd backs away from Trump?
I don’t think they will. Most are not interested in foreign policy. Instead, they concentrate on a pointless “culture war” and attacking “social justice warriors” and Democrats.
It looks like we’re in for another war, one that will undoubtedly shut down oil exports in the Persian Gulf and inflict further harm on an already devastated economy that has stalled since the bankers brought it down during the financial crisis nearly a decade ago.
Absent a viable antiwar movement and the apathetic response of many Americans to endless war, it looks like the neocons will have their wish — further dismemberment of the Middle East, more dead civilians (number records have died since Trump assumed office), and more dead and maimed soldiers.

Things keep getting better and better.... for war

Long before Haspel became the #2 official at America’s premiere intelligence agency, however, she played a significant role in the Bush administration’s attempts to extract information from detainees through torture.

As the New York Times reported last year, “as a clandestine officer at the Central Intelligence Agency in 2002, Gina Haspel oversaw the torture of two terrorism suspects and later took part in an order to destroy videotapes documenting their brutal interrogations at a secret prison in Thailand.”

Nevertheless, Haspel reportedly ran an overseas detention site in Thailand, where two men were tortured. According to the New York Times, one detainee, Abu Zubaydah, was “waterboarded 83 times in a single month, had his head repeatedly slammed into walls and endured other harsh methods before interrogators decided he had no useful information to provide.”

[Pavlov]

Trumps an idiot. Thought you guys would be happy with Tillerson being fired.
Not when he just showed his first sign of having a spine.

But that's exactly why he was fired.

[pgardn]

:lol Deep State president not Trump

Since hater is totally petrified to answer any of my questions...

How would our resident clown of the deep state explain Trump publically calling meeting directly with fat boy?( Against almost every expert's advise) Did the deep state want this? I'm not clear on what the deep state actually is trying to accomplish with all these bizzare moves.

[pgardn]

Sorry.

I answered my own question. When Trump decides anything that Hater deems against his personal wishes, the deep state is obviously involved. So hater has called all this shit, except he hasn't.

[Pavlov]

lol Tillerson telling Trump when he is leaving

[hater]

Plus Tillerson was ok with iran deal and Trump is in Zionist pocket. Im surprised Rex lasted this long tbqh

[boutons_deux]

With Pompeo in, the Iran deal is certainly to be killed, proving to USA's allies that are party to the deal that "America First" means unreliable USA fucks enemies and friends indifferently.

Pootin will be thrilled that Manchurian Trash is screwing USA's NATO allies.

Trump dismisses Tillerson for crossing the only 'Red Line' that counts: Russia, Russia, Russia (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/3/13/1748606/-Trump-dismisses-Tillerson-for-crossing-the-only-Red-Line-that-counts-Russia-Russia-Russia)

He’s left the offices of the State Department empty and

done nothing about the dozens of open ambassadorships around the world.

He’s negotiated no deals.

He’s made no policy.

He’s accepted humiliating public tongue-lashings from Trump—

including having his own selection for deputy overridden.

None of that was enough to protect Tillerson

when he dared suggest that

not only was Russia behind a nerve agent attack in the UK,

but that

the United States would take action to protect their closest ally and NATO partner.

On board a plane bound for Africa,

Tillerson called

the attack “a really egregious act,”

said that the attack was clearly from Russia, and

promised that the United States would act to defend its ally.

And just like that, he was gone.

Rex Tillerson has been fired. Experts say he did damage that could last “a generation.”


Tillerson was “one of the worst secretaries of state” in modern history

https://www.vox.com/world/2018/3/13/16029526/rex-tillerson-fired-state-department

same is true of the damage the Repug kakistocratic whores of the oligarchy.

Pruitt, Zinke, Devos, Senate packing Fed appeals courts with ideological, incompetent assholes, terrible damage to America that will take years, decades to reverse, if ever.

America is fucked and unfuckable, and fucked to enrich/empower/protect the oligarchy.

Lmao Trump about to appoint John Bolton :wow

War with Iran is a lock if that happens. Shit getting real :wow

Is President Trump about to make this warmongering lunatic his national security adviser?

Reports that John Bolton met with President Trump in the White House on Tuesday to discuss the possibility of him succeeding H.R. McMaster as national security adviser should send a chill down the spines of every American — and indeed of every person on the planet.

a country with a less bellicose foreign policy establishment, Bolton would be considered a warmongering lunatic. But America's foreign policy establishment inclines toward reflexive militarism (on the grounds that American bombs, troops, and special operations forces are invariably a force for good in the world), and so Bolton comes off as merely somewhat more unhinged than his peers. But that shouldn't blind us to the enormous danger confronting us all if he were to ascend to such a powerful position in the Trump administration.

Bolton thinks that war — by which I mean everything from the launching of missiles to the deployment of ground forces to foreign theaters of battle — is the solution to every problem the United States confronts in the world. That is not an exaggeration. I challenge readers to find any statement Bolton has made against any American act of war at any time anywhere. And no, Bolton's harsh words for the Obama administration's plans for a limited air strike against Syria in retaliation for Bashar al-Assad's use of chemical weapons in the country's civil war doesn't count, since the criticism amounted to the argument that the bombing would be too limited in scope.

[hater]

ong the way, he also tried to assimilate Cuba into the "axis of evil" by accusing the country (on the basis of intelligence that was later debunked) of developing biological weapons and distributing them to Libya and Syria. He later advocated the targeted assassination of Libya's Moammar Gadhafi and then backed the Obama administration's military intervention there (which of course didn't stop him from blasting the Libyan action after it had devolved into Iraq-like chaos as "too little, too late"). He thinks the U.S. should have invaded Syria and overthrown Assad shortly after the Iraq invasion of 2003, just as he's made clear over and over again that he thinks it would be a splendid idea for the U.S to bomb Iran — and perhaps even a good thing for Israel to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the country.

And then there's North Korea, one of the biggest problems confronting the Trump administration and the world. It will surprise no one that Bolton favors a massive preemptive strike against the country — or that he waves away concerns about the potential for massive casualties and the possible negative consequences for America's strategic interests throughout the region. We would simply ask for China's help in bringing about a "controlled collapse of the North Korean regime." Sure the costs could be enormous. But for Bolton, the costs of avoiding war would clearly be greater.

This is what defines Bolton's foreign policy thinking: the conviction that war is always the best option.

[hater]

Having a man who so consistently — one might almost say instinctually — favors military action serving as the national security adviser to the president would be dangerous in any White House. But in the Trump administration it could be catastrophic.
