President Trump Briefed on Options for Attacking Iran

President Trump has been briefed in recent days on new options for military strikes in Iran as he considers following through on his threat to attack the country for cracking down on protesters.

I was also wrong in thinking he wouldn't bomb Iran in June. Why? Because Trump has been bluster with the occasional very targeted bomb. Starting wars against countries has not been his style. But with zero constraints on his foreign policy now, his aggressive instincts face no check. 2/

"Dummkopf Trumpf has not made a final decision, but junta officials said he was seriously considering authorizing a strike in response to the Iranian regime's efforts to suppress demonstrations set off by widespread economic grievances. The Dotard-in-Chief has been presented with a range of options, including strikes on nonmilitary sites in Tehran.

Asked about planning for potential strikes, junta sycophants referred to Trumpf's public comments and social media posts in recent days.

"Iran is looking at FREEDOM, perhaps like never before," Trumpf brayed on social media on Saturday. "The USA stands ready to help!!!"

The demonstrations in Iran began in late Dec 2025 in response to a currency crisis, but they have since spread and grown in size as many Iranians have called for wholesale changes to the country's authoritarian government. Iranian officials have threatened to crack down on the demonstrations, and dozens of protesters have been killed, according to human rights groups.

Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Friday that the government would "not back down" in the face of large-scale protests.

The warmonger occupying the half-demolished White House has repeatedly threatened to use lethal force against the Iranian government for its efforts to suppress demonstrations, and on Friday, he said that Iran "is in big trouble."

A few weeks ago, the IDF High Command issued a warning to be ready for war against three fronts: the West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran. As Pope Leo XIV recently declared to the entire accredited Diplomatic Corps to the Holy See, "war is back in vogue," thanks to the Axis of Evil 'Vladimir Netanyahu Trumpf.'

Moreover, Trumpf junta hypocrisy about Iran is stifling. While the junta pretends to care about the Iranian people, ICE has been deporting Iranian nationals wholesale to this "repressive" regime. In 2025, at least 400 Iranians were deported; two recent flights had about 120 people, the other 55. (Sources: www.pbs.org, www.bbc.com, www.iranintl.com)

Regime change in Tehran has been a dream of AIPAC since the fall of the repressive Shah of Iran in 1979. His notorious SAVAK, trained by CIA and Mossad, detained and tortured tens of thousands of dissidents from 1953 to 1979.

AIPAC Republicans and Democrats, warmongers, Benjamin Netanyahu, Islamophobes Randy Fine, Laura Loomer, Sebastian Gorka, Andrew Cuomo, USSECSTATE Marco Rubio, US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), USSECDEF Pete Hegseth, US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), mega-oligarchs Miriam Adelson, Felon Musk, Larry Ellison, and NYS gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman (R-Nassau County) are just champing at the bits for the fireworks to begin.

A US war with Iran is why AIPAC invests billions of dollars in American politicians. What a staggering amount just for Dummkopf Trumpf alone. At the White House 2025 Hanukkah Party, mega-oligarch Miriam Adelson pledged to give the Dotard-in-Chief an additional $250m to run for a third term.

Nothing says we want to help like dropping bombs on people.

The Economist.com and the Pope are right: 2026 is going to be a bloody bellicose year thanks to Vladimir Netanyahu Trumpf.

How will the American voter respond on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026?

Many voters will be checking these websites to see which candidates support warmongers:

Good one, A. Friend.

Our 21st-century Cerberus is going to amass quite a large pile of bodies for the charnel house this year.

Sad.

#5 Thank you ... and you're right: the Butchers Bill will be very, very expensive this year.

The height of irony: Trump is about to attack Iran for hooting protestors, while simultaneously encouraging ICE to do the very same thing.

Height of irony indeed.

And hypocrisy.

Did someone tell him that the more countries he attacks the better his chances for a Nobel?

that the more countries he attacks the better his chances for a Nobel?

The way he sees it, every time the planes land he's ended another war.
