Donald Trump insists he had no choice but to heavily bomb Iran, saying he was acting to stop an “imminent threat” from Tehran. Oh, okay, you know that would actually make a lot of sense! So, can you tell us what this threat was?
Oh, what’s that? You can’t. Huh. Well, the official White House line, as spouted to reporters on Saturday, is that Iran was about to strike out at US bases. Alternatively, Trump had determined that Iran was enriching uranium. I guess we get the luxury of choosing which excuse we want.
