President Donald Trump is a danger to the world. I believe he must be removed from office and charged with crimes against humanity.
He could have continued to negotiate with Iran but decided, without apparent provocation, to bomb and, with Israel, to assassinate its national governmental leadership instead, along with 175 mostly girl students at a school and no one knows how many hundreds, thousands, possibly millions of others to come in the Middle East and beyond. This could destabilize that region and possibly lead to World War III.
He has violated international law, leaving out both the U.S. Congress and the United Nations, among others. He is responsible for the deaths of hundreds or thousands of innocent people and is mistakenly promoting war as a solution to conflict, which it never is. His attacks have caused higher oil and gas prices, leading to a possible economic downturn or collapse in some countries.
The so-called rationale of “national security” for the attack can only leave us in the U.S. less secure. If a reason for bombing is “regime change,” I believe we need that in the U.S. as much as, or more than, Iran does. This act of aggression can only lead to massive suffering worldwide. I believe Trump the warmonger must be removed from office and power immediately. Dump Trump!
