"There seems to be two main organized factions of the MAGA movement and the Trump regime itself as far as his war against Iran. On one side is the populist faction led by the Nazi sympathizers like Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes. They blame “Israel”, which for their millions of followers is code word for “the Jews”. They opposed the war from the start, not because they sympathize with the Iranian people and the Women Life Freedom movement, but because they want to further build a pro-Nazi movement of which genuine anti-Semitism is an inherent part. This anti-Semitism has nothing in common with the slur thrown at those of us – this writer included – who oppose Zionism on humanitarian or even socialist grounds.
"The other faction is headed by the sole survivor of the neocons who engineered the US invasion of Iraq, John Bolton. He is joined by the editorial board of the Wall St. Journal. Immediately upon Trump’s starting this war, they warned Trump not to stop. “It’s too soon for Iran’s ‘Off Ramp’ <https://www.wsj.com/opinion/its-too-soon-for-iran-off-ramps-828cc260?mod=hp_opin_pos_1&fbclid=IwY2xjawQmoyFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEenyS1je0kh9HDVNrye3bSfg85NT9o6e8r1xSdBpm_LQ2ggXXwoyArZVtQfVI_aem_qLVuK_decMinacMCUEPZMg>” they wrote. More recently, on March 6 they carried the same message: “Ending Iran War Quickly Carries Big Risks for the U.S. and its Allies <https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/ending-iran-war-quickly-carries-big-risks-for-the-u-s-and-allies-60c003de?gaa_at=eafs&gaa_n=AWEtsqfNE4RpNh873gImpmlK988r2Ud5e1SNy_rUkiyMFqD4aYnx2XnoGWZR0oDTHxQ%3D&gaa_ts=69b9c693&gaa_sig=anM3nKv6b9Ogxa77usQ_vW1-rc1m4Km4VYOJOSMOOAOlJtx51crkIqXpRIKIfVjeReQFpRuCNwwqhHxxt44chQ%3D%3D>” they warned. They label Trump stopping now as a “nightmare scenario”. This wing has a popular base among MAGAites who are willing to put to the side the rising gas prices in order to celebrate machismo militarism.Trump’s partner in crime, Netanyahu, is lined up with Bolton and the WSJ editorial board. Since he’s Trump’s closest ally – even more so than Putin – he also exerts an influence." The evidence now is that the latter faction has gained the upper hand and a ground invasion is coming. The results would be disastrous for both the people of Iran and here in the United States. read more: https://oaklandsocialist.com/2026/03/18/u-s-ground-troops-into-iran-an-even-worse-disaster/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
