Of course, the reports re Trump/Iran appeared in the WSJ, so possible disinfo.

Listening to Sachs on The Duran, he pointed out that US Presidents come and go, but Netanyahu is still here 30 years on with his Clean Break plan in progress.

I fear the Trump administration is shot through with Israel Firsters, who believe what is good for Israel is good for the US, and what is bad for Israel is bad for the US. And they have the money to back that up. Also exploding pagers.

Compare this belief to the Catholic concept of "malum in se", bad-in-itself, intrinsic evil: some actions are intrinsically evil and must not be done, even in an attempt to secure a great good.

Yes, neocons gave us a great commission to go and make disciples of all nations. But it is the zionists who define what is "malum in se". Any actions opposed to Israeli interests are intrinsically evil: we must not do evil to Israeli interests in hopes that good may come for US interests.

This is a terrible state of play to find ourselves in. It is utterly opposed to Christ and his central message that he, not the Jewish nation, is the path to salvation. There is nothing in the Gospel from which you can derive the sending of weapons systems to Israel to bring about the second coming of Christ.
