“If Iran shots and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” – President DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump, Maduro, Iran Protests, and America First – Please Read and Share This Short Analysis copied from Amir Tsarfati

President Trump’s America First policy is fundamentally different from the version promoted by commentators such as Tucker Carlson.

In Trump’s view, one cannot ignore the reality that foreign actors are actively undermining the United States. The 90-minute operation in the Venezuelan capital and its surrounding areas was not a war; therefore, Congress was neither informed nor asked to approve it. It was a law-enforcement action – a swift removal of a destabilizing domestic agitator.

Judging by the president’s own words, regime change was not the objective. Rather, the goal was a complete change in policy.

Three considerations were at the forefront, none of which had anything to do with Israel’s concerns regarding Venezuela. From Trump’s perspective, the issues were drugs, illegal immigration by criminals, and oil that was unjustly taken from American companies.

Trump’s priority is to keep America free of drugs and gangs while maintaining a strong, thriving economy. He did not remove Maduro because of his ties to Iran or Hezbollah – at least not according to his statements or those of his secretary of war. Any genuine regime change in Venezuela, he argues, must come from within, through free and non-fraudulent elections.

Now let’s turn to Iran.

The United States will not initiate a war with Iran simply because of internal unrest or popular protests. American intervention would occur only if the Iranian regime poses a direct threat to U.S. interests. In practical terms, threats against American allies, U.S. bases, or U.S. assets are the triggers that could lead the 47th president to authorize another round of B-2 operations over the skies of the Islamic Republic.

From Trump’s perspective, an Israeli strike could once again serve as the catalyst – not to pursue regime change, but to reinforce deterrence. A follow-on U.S. B-2 presence would signal unmistakably to Tehran that continued aggression, including the killing of its own civilians, carries severe consequences. The objective would be pressure, not overthrow: pushing the regime to halt repression and recalibrate its behavior.

Israel, however, does not have the luxury of waiting.

Israel cannot afford to watch the ayatollahs accumulate thousands of ballistic missiles while renewing their nuclear ambitions – all while already possessing roughly 400 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60%.

Therefore, in my assessment, another round involving Iran is very close – literally around the corner. For Israel, it would be about removing existential threats. For Trump, it would be about restoring deterrence and forcing restraint.

Unfortunately, according to Scripture, Iran will come against Israel in the near future as part of an emerging coalition led by Russia. Until then, the regime will attempt to survive – waiting patiently for the end of Trump’s presidency, counting on the assumption that his successor’s worldview will be closer to that of Tucker Carlson.

(IMO). I totally concur, I don’t see us doing a regime change in Iran, however Israel will need to strike again and what happens after that is anyone’s guess.

On Venezuela, it’s more than just narco-terrorist there, Russia, China and Iran have interests there. Is there weaponry or launch capabilities in country?? Who knows, I am sure the US military knows. Exciting times to live in. I have been preaching about these days since I was a young man. Maranatha! Rh
