The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

As Netanyahu pushes for the killing of another rival leader in the Middle East — now Iran's Ali Khamenei — to force a regime change with the support of warmongers in the U.S., one can only hope that Trump's threats are merely rhetorical and that he will make good on his promises not to start wars, especially one that is Iraq 2.0. Americans have long had enough of Israeli-catalyzed wars.

AntiWarResponsible Statecraft

Pro-establishment narrative

Iran cannot have uranium enrichment, period. Either Khamenei agrees to the easy way and surrenders, or the U.S. will have no option other than to take action. As the Trump administration is well aware of the consequences of foreign entanglement over the past decades, Americans may rest assured that the U.S. will do only what is needed for peace and stability to prevail there.
