Donald Trump and maga Republicans never learned the prophesy: Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it in Iran


Echo opinion letter published in the CAPTimes, in Wisconsin:
Donald Trump learned nothing from previous Middle East wars.

Dear Editor: Republicans and Donald Trump madly continue their faulty reasoning and a total lack of cultural and political knowledge about other countries, hoping to bring democracy to the world while treading on our own Constitution.

George H.W. Bush in 1991, wanted to take out Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein (b.1937-d.2006), bringing democracy to Iraq and hoping the people would rise up and grab democracy as we know it. 
Do you remember how that went Kurdish and Shia people tried to gain power, and around 30,000 were killed, according to George Packer, Atlantic writer.
Then, George W. Bush, in 2003, launched a war against the mythical weapons of mass destruction as he tried to destroy Saddam Hussein quickly, although it took much longer and killed many of our military. (Reported over 4,400 U.S. military killed in failed Operation Iraqi Freedom.)

Again, in 2026, with faulty information, Trump and his crazy Cabinet think they can take out the rulers of Iran and Venezuela, and the people will create a lovely democracy like ours and live happily ever after while Trump and his family and band of billionaires make money off the oil at our “defense” expense. 

Note the price of gasoline, Mr. Affordability

Trump, make up your mind*(check my postscript on X/) about which excuse you are using this time to kill thousands of Iran civilians and our military personnel while there is no guarantee for the outcome.

Wait❗️ First it was a war to end Iran’s nuclear bomb threat (but Iranians did not have a nuclear bomb) then a war to free the Iranian people who are now slaughtered by the thousands by American bombs & now it is a religious war❓Is this a trick multiple choice question❓
