Trump on Iran - Part 2 - Iran Crisis


Lets Get Real:

IF President Trump does nullify the Iran deal this will mean that he will have two nuclear questions on his desk, North Korea and Iran.   The Tehran Regime will know that those on the left in the US and the West will scream that Trump wants to start a WAR with Iran.  One can see the tone of the Guardian, BBC News, CNN, NYT already.   The question is WHAT does Trump want to do with Iran and North Korea, either talk to them or go to WAR, this blog has no time for either Regimes, it can be postulated that it is better to deal with one problem at a time, Trump does like to cause news on a Friday. 

Trump on Iran - Iran Crisis


Lets Get Real:

It will be interesting to see how the US Defence Secretary reacts to this nullification of the Iran deal, he has stated before the US Congress that the US should carry on with the agreement, and he is  a General with the nickname of Mad Dog, what will the Secretary of State do, will he go along with such a decision.  IF and Trump is not playing games the issue of Iran will go to the US Congress, one can expect most Democrats to support the idea as it's the only achievement in the Obama Administration foreign policy record, while one can expect most Republicans to agree to new sanctions on the Iran.   Thus another Developing story.....

Another North Korean Missile Launch ? - North Korean Crisis


Lets Get Real:

One can only hope that North Korea is playing games, any missile launch that comes close to the US or US interest or allies will be seen as a direct threat to the US, and President Trump is acting as if he has a itchy finger to start a War.   In the Election of 2016 he was interested in the use of nuclear weapons, one can only hope that China and Russia have placed enough pressure on North Korea that they will back down and be quiet for a while.  As to the Tehran problem the Trump Oval should listen to his Defence and State Department Secretaries, let's hope the Generals can keep us from War in Asia and the Middle East.  

What Storm Mr President ? - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

The President could be joking, that is the thing with Trump, he comes from a reality show background and business, the way doe does business is to get attention, the thing he has not understood is the FACT that he is President of the United States, everything he says is taking as US policy, in North Korea and Iran there must be those thinking that the President is talking about them, thus they might take action, this blog is no fan of the Tehran Regime or North Korea but any military action should be supported by the US Defence Secretary who has the nickname Mad Dog, he has stated before Congress that the US should keep the deal between the US and Iran, as to North Korea there are the same problems as before, any first strike by the US will leads to millions of South Koreans losing their lives.  Developing story.

Secretary State Tillerson vs. The Washington Press Core


Lets Get Real:

One does wonder why Secretary of State Tillerson is hanging around, the Trump Oval has shown it will undercut the Secretary State at any time, of late it has been about North Korea.   In the modern Presidency foreign policy is done out of the White House, the State Department it can be argued using a British political term has house trained Mr Tillerson, any talks with North Korea is just the State Department appeasing the North Koreans, very much like our UK FCO, they appease the enemy and are anti Israel, No 10 on the whole never trusts the FCO as they have house trained the then Foreign Secretary.  One does wonder how much time Mr Tillerson has at State, one would guess not long before Trump places his own man at State to control the Department.

The Catalan Crisis - Spain

Lets Get Real:

The Madrid Government needs to come down HARD on Catalan, it was an illegal vote, and is a threat to Spain and could cause other areas in the EU to demand they also get a Vote to become an Independent Nation.   The SNP in Scotland must be worried if they try for another vote the Spanish Government could place a block on it becoming a part of the EU.   Thus the Spanish Government has to be FIRM, if need be the troops should be sent in, it is treason to Spain and the Crown.  Madrid needs to send a clear message, this far and no further.

Trump on Las Vegas - Mass Shooting - Historical Record




Lets Get Real:

President Trump should use this moment to get Democrats and moderate Republicans to support strict gun control, there is no need for Americans to have easy access to weapons, the Founding Fathers would be appalled that innocent Americans are being killed daily by weapons bought in a local store.   Thus time for the US to come together and restrict guns, innocent blood is on the floor in Vegas, time for action and leadership from Trump.
