Donald Trump has claimed it’s a “little unfair” that a predominantly brown, Muslim country has decided to actually fight back against US colonialism.

The US and Israel started the war in Iran with illegal and unprovoked attacks. Yet now, it seems that shit got a little too real for him.

I AM LOST FOR WORDS…

“It’s Little Unfair” of Iran to Fight Back.

You had no right to bomb and murder nearly 200 little girls in the name of freeing Iranian women. I guess if they don’t reach adulthood, they can’t be “oppressed by the regime”.

“They have no right to be doing what they’re doing” is a crazy statement when you attack someone. https://t.co/ApHFP5jObI

Who’s going to bomb the US to free all the women that Trump’s regime is subjugating?

Bro got too used to attacking children and unarmed populations in open air prisons. Cant cope when someone can fight back https://t.co/eP03qQMI20

This is the type of video you watch four times just to make sure you’re not losing your mind.

The reality is, the president of the most powerful country in the world does not give a shit about Black and Brown people.

I guess Trump and his paedo friends are not used to people fighting back.

Trump: old habits die hard

And in a rare moment of lucidity, Trump admitted he went to war with Iran “out of habit”. 

He added that Israel is a great ally, which, of course, is another reason the US should start an illegal war. Israel says jump and Trump asks how high.

Unreal. Trump says he went to war with Iran “out of habit,” adding “which is not a good thing to do.”

Imagine bombing school children out of habit? Does he have the same excuse for hanging out with Epstein for all those years?

Trump also talked about “violent and vicious people” who have “destroyed the country. At least bro is self-aware.

“violent and vicious,” “horrible people” who have “destroyed the country.”

Every accusation is a confession. https://t.co/8SQkwiJm7d

This is the same guy who tried to insult Governor Gavin Newsom’s intelligence, whilst accidentally calling him the “President of the United States”.

US colonialism

Countries, including occupied territories (ahem, Gaza, the Golan Heights, Southern Lebanon), have the right to self-defence under international law.

Article 51 of the United Nations Charter establishes the right to self-defence as a “fundamental exception to the prohibition on the use of force between states”. Specifically, armed attacks justify recourse to self-defence.

The US has the strongest military in the world and Israel is the only state (albeit illegal) in the Middle East with nuclear weapons. Iran has neither of these, which is why the way it fights back may not make sense through conventional frameworks.

As Dr Narges Bajoghli wrote on Instagram:

Iran is targeting Gulf security architecture. For decades, the U.S. built a regional order where Gulf states host American bases, buy American weapons, and maintain stability that keeps oil flowing on U.S. terms.
Iran’s strategy dismantles that.

Strike the infrastructure. Make the bases vulnerable. Force Gulf states to question whether American security guarantees are worth the risk of being Iranian targets. Fracture the regional consensus that enabled U.S. dominance.

She added:

So they’re turning that weapon back on the global economy. Threaten shipping lanes. Target refineries in allied states.
Make oil prices spike. Create economic pain that translates to political pressure on governments waging war.

Iran is hitting the US, Israel, and countries in which the US has military bases or infrastructure, where it hurts, and Trump underestimated their willingness to do so.

Maybe if more countries fought back against the US and Israel, the world would be less fucked up.
