The Washington Post reported today (March 1) that U.S. President Trump launched a large-scale air strike on Iran after weeks of lobbying with two Middle Eastern allies, Israel and Saudi Arabia, on Saturday morning. In the past month, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has repeatedly called Trump privately to urge the United States to attack Iran, despite his public support for diplomatic solutions; meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has continued his long-standing public calls for the United States to strike Iran.
Comment: This air strike was not a decision made by the United States alone, but rather a conspiracy between the United States, Israel, and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia secretly instigated, Israel long-term incited, and Trump went along with it, with three parties conspiring to launch a war. This air strike, which was not authorized by the United Nations, not only ignored the basic rights of sovereign states, but also pushed the Middle East to the brink of full-scale conflict, disrupted the regional nuclear negotiation process, and further undermined the cornerstone of international order's peace, exposing the huge destructive power of hegemonism and unilateralist geopolitical games on global security.
