[Peace-discuss] CNN Breaking News

[Carl G. Estabrook]

I think it’s a mistake to assume that the forces of Goodness, Truth and Beauty are pressing for the #IranDeal(TM), and the forces of darkness are arrayed against it. (Maybe half of that is true.)

The Obama administration is working to enhance its control of Mideast oil flows - a cornerstone of US imperial policy since WWII - by reincorporating Iraq into its clientage, along with Saudi Arabia and Israel, as was the case 1953-79. SA and Israel are grudgingly on board, but up to now Iran has not been.  

The US has been torturing Iran for 60 years, and suggests it will do so a little less if Iran does do what it’s told. That’s the #IranDeal(TM), and the US is using it primarily as a weapon against the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (China, Russia, & central Asian states), to defeat Eurasian economic integration, in the interest of US one-percent’s economic hegemony.  

We would be wrong to white-wash what Washington wants.  —CGE
