Never Give a Blank Cheque to Israel- Historical Lesson

Guardian: Reports in its 1.39pm post the following,  " Hezbollah leader rejects latest ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Lebanon "

Let's Get Real:

Any one with knowledge of history knows the example of the German Empire giving a blank cheque to the Austrian - Hungary in 1914, to attack Serbia and leading to the WW1 and the fall of the German, Russian, Austrian - Hungary Empires.  If Trump can control Israel then he might get a deal with Iran.  This means appeasing Tehran and Hezbollah, the Trump Oval needs the Strait of Hormuz open as to lower gas prices and lower inflation, if wants a chance of keeping the House and Senate in Republican hands, other wise stalled government and Impeachment for the last two years of the Trump term.

Trump, China and the Strait of Hormuz- Update

Sky News: Reports in its 1.15pm post the following, " I'm opening Strait of Hormuz for China, says Trump - and Xi will 'give me a big, fat, hug'"

Let's Get Real:

This will make China happy as long as their tankers can get through the blockade at some point.  Trump's view of World Politics is the strong powers agree on a issue and the rest of the World follow suit, that has not worked out in the Ukraine, that is why President Trump is peeved with Zelensky of the Ukraine, as he infamously said that the Ukraine has no cards in its war.  In many respects Trump is from the Imperial Era, the age of Gunboat Diplomacy, were might is right.
