LLAW’s NUCLEAR WORLD NEWS TODAY and the GLOBAL RISKS & CONSEQUENCES TOMORROW
In My Opinion:
Because this is such a serious issue, I am repeating my thoughts concerning the likely multiplying conflicts that this potential USA (Trump) crisis with Iran from yesterday’s Post.
I will add that such a malignant threat by Trump is not simply between him and Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei because it affects the entire world including, as pointed out by the Newsweek article below, Iran’s support from Russia and China, too; and that also means, the free states of Europe (NATO) and by implication all other nations around the world. Trump, obviously, with his bullying-style (with no sign of any “Art of a Deal” nor diplomacy), has exponentially expanded the ominous threat of a nuclear World War III. ~llaw
From yesterday:
Donald Trump to Iran: “It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before.”
Is Trump trying to start a war, not only in the Iran and the Middle East, but an attack on the United States? This is not leadership from America, nor does it have anything to do with diplomacy nor “the art of the deal”, which, by the way, his book of the same name was actually written in 1987 by a ghost writer named Tony Schwartz.
If you want to hear what Mr. Schwartz has to say about Trump and “The Art of the Deal”, you can easily Google his name . . .
Trump is little more than a grown-up grade-school playground bully, and a wannabe “tough-guy” dictator style world leader. He likes to talk down to those nations he feels are inferior to his view of America and rub elbows with leaders like Putin, but he is rapidly turning the USA into a country worse than any 3rd world nation on the planet, and he is clearly dangerous to all nations everywhere, including, most importantly, our own. He can start WWIII, better named “armageddon”, all by himself with his own stubby finger on the nuclear football button unless that “freedom” is taken away from him by Congress with some help. It should have been the best last act of President Joe Biden! ~llaw

Trump Lays Down Nuclear Deadline For Iran

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov warned there would be “catastrophic” consequences if the United States attacks Iran’s nuclear infrastructure after a threat by President Donald Trump.
Newsweek has reached out to the U.S. State Department and Iran’s foreign ministry for comment.
Why It Matters
Rising tensions between Iran and the U.S. have reignited concerns of the potential for military conflict. U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei have escalated the tone of their remarks, intensifying the standoff over Iran’s nuclear program.
Trump has reinstated his “maximum pressure” campaign, which has led to the reimposition of strict sanctions in order to weaken Iran’s economy and stop its nuclear program. Iran has refused direct negotiations under pressure but said indirect negotiations were possible.

What To Know
In an interview with the Russian International Affairs magazine, Ryabkov said Russia opposed military strikes on Iran if Tehran refuses to agree to a nuclear deal, warning of “catastrophic” consequences, “especially if the nuclear infrastructure is hit.”
Trump threatened to bomb Iran if it does not agree to a new nuclear deal. Tehran has rejected a U.S. proposal to engage in direct negotiations under “maximum pressure” policies.
“Threats are really heard, and ultimatums are also heard. We consider such methods inappropriate, we condemn them,” Ryabkov added.
Iran said it “will have no choice” but to seek nuclear weapons if attacked, a senior adviser to Khamenei Iranian Supreme Khamenei said. The U.S. has significantly increased its military presence in both the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean, in a move signaling heightened U.S. preparations for potential conflict.Subscribed
