Analyst: Trump needs to weaken Iran to dominate it

SHAFAQNA- IRNA: Trump and the people around him want a Middle East dominated by Israel, Saudi Arabia and the U.S and to do that, the Americans must weaken Iran and Syria’, a senior American journalist and columnist for ‘Foreign Policy In Focus’ believes.

There is certainly a close relationship between Trump’s family and Netanyahu, but I think this has more to do with strategic policy than friendship. Trump has thrown in with Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the UAE to try to take down Iran, said ‘Conn Hallinan’ in an interview with IRNA.

He added: This is a direct challenge to Syria, its Russian allies, and to a certain extend, the Turks, The Major target is Iran and the American sanctions are taking a toll (they won’t work in the long run, but they will cause considerable pain).

There is an added benefit that the White House thinks recognizing Golan (and moving the embassy) will cause American Jews to switch to the Republican Party and vote to re-elect him. It won’t work, but reality is not the White House’s strong suit, this senior Journalist added.

Expressing his views, the analyst said:It was the Americans that dismembered part of Serbia to create Kosovo, It wasn’t the Russians that started changing borders, it was NATO.

He said: Since when have the Americans or the Israeli’s paid any attention to international law? The attack on Iraq was a violation of international law, Israel’s settlement policies are violations of international law. US aid to Saudi Arabia in Yemen is a violation of international law and No matter how cynical you get you can’t keep up with these people.

He added that Trump has already done that by moving the American embassy, but he will go much farther. It is not clear what Kushner’s “plan” will be but it will essentially recognize Israel’s illegal settlement policies.

The “deal” is a stacked deck filled with jokers. Sure, recognizing Israel’s seizure of Golan sets the stage for the big heist—stealing the West Bank—but Trump’s “deal” will only advance because the Israeli military will shove down the Palestinians’ throats with full American support (and the Europeans will do little more than wring their hands), ‘Conn Hallinan’ viewed.
