From Nobel Peace Prize to Oscar for Lies: Trump's Great Scam

For all those who placed their faith in a supposedly "different" president, one who promised peace, who solemnly swore not to start wars or waste Americans' money on distant conflicts... I'm sorry to tell you that you were completely wrong. How does it feel to have been deceived?

Trump is not just the same as his predecessors: he's worse. There you have him, doing exactly what he criticized, seeking external enemies to consolidate more power at home. Remember when he declared he didn't want to get involved in the conflict between Israel and Iran? "I'm going to think about it, I'm going to meditate on it a bit," he said with that false prudence. Hours later, American bombs were falling on Iranian military targets.

What bitter irony. The Pakistanis had proposed Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, and days later they were already publicly regretting it. Now we understand his original strategy: maintain a friendly face to the world in his first administration to secure a second chance, where he would no longer be accountable to anyone. The plan backfired and he lost reelection. But four years later he recovered it, and now he owes favors to no one. And that's terrifying.

He already spat in the plate where he ate, already imposed his tariffs as he wanted, already got rid of several "tech bros" who supported him. Now he has absolute control... or absolute lack of control. Whatever his true masters in the Kremlin and Tel Aviv want, Trump is at their entire disposal to continue with the systematic demolition of the West, America, and Europe.

You know what Trump does best? Destroy. If they wanted to finish off Iran, put Trump as president of Iran and you'll see how he destroys them from within in record time.

Because the uncomfortable truth is that Iran is not the power many imagine in the Middle East. It was obvious that their response was going to be lukewarm compared to the brutal attack they suffered from Israel and the United States.

They bombed at the wrong time, warned they were going to attack some American bases in Qatar, meticulously ensured that the facilities were empty before executing the attacks. All Iran managed to do was say "yes, I responded and yes, I bombed," but the response was really pathetic. A very poor simulation? The conflict has painfully made it clear that Iran is not the regional power many believed.

If it really had serious nuclear power, do you think Israel or the United States would have dared to attack it? Would they attack North Korea? Of course not.

What we have discovered is devastating: Iran, like Russia in its conflict against Ukraine, is not what it claims to be. It has some aces up its sleeve, yes. If it seeks an asymmetric war like the one the Taliban masterfully executed (who terrorized Americans by hitting the Twin Towers), it could work. But we don't know if Iran wants to risk it at this moment or prefers to continue negotiating, mediating with the Saudis, completely ceding control of the zone to Saudi Arabia, part of the American plan.

And here comes the fascinating part: Saudi Arabia is a complex and dangerous ally of the United States. Thanks to selling oil in dollars, they have created a diabolical pact: the United States protects the Saudi monarchy in exchange for keeping oil transactions in dollars. This dynamic artificially keeps the American currency strong.

Globally, millions of transactions are conducted in dollars thanks to Saudi oil, enormously benefiting the United States. We don't know if the Saudis will maintain this pact in the future, but to this day it has kept them not only dominant in the region, but allied with Israel without major conflicts.

It's a world order sustained by money, oil, and dollars, keeping the Saudi monarchy in power.

This alliance is precisely what controls the Middle East: Saudi Arabia's financial muscle and Israeli military intelligence as partners of the United States. We don't know exactly the magnitude of influence Israel has over the United States, but it's clear they go together. We don't know who manipulates whom, but if Israel goes to war, the United States will automatically follow.

If anyone touches Israel (like Iran with its missiles on Israeli territory), the United States will intervene without exception. The "president of peace" turned out to be a monumental scam. Who does this surprise? Not me, but many will act surprised.

The reality is chilling: Vladimir Putin continues weaving his influence. We don't know exactly what type of control he has over the President of the United States, but his strategy is crystal clear: divide, divide, divide.

By making the United States enter tangentially into this conflict between Israel and Iran, he is achieving perfect division:

- The American government fractures

- The population polarizes

- The military questions decisions

There are already open conflicts in the Senate over the autocratic decisions Trump has made without consulting Congress. They are direct, unilateral decisions that are dividing the American government. And let's not even talk about the population: some feel betrayed by Trump, others experience exacerbated nationalism, others are completely against the war, others ask "why are you giving my money to Israel so they can fight in a Middle Eastern conflict?"

This is exactly part of Vladimir Putin's silent and lethal strategy. Let's remember something crucial: Putin considers that the fall of the Soviet Union was a division strategy executed by the West. His revenge is to divide the West: fragment Europe, fracture America. Divide, divide, divide. A divided world means a more powerful Russia.

Currently the world is going through a brutal process of regionalization: America, with the United States dominant (although increasingly questioned). Europe, in an all-out battle between the European Union and Russia, where Ukraine has become the perfect testing ground for Europe to learn from Ukrainians, who have faced the entire Russian apparatus and revealed Russia's critical deficiencies (it's no longer the Soviet power it was).

Asia, with China leading strategic agreements with Japan and South Korea, positioning itself at the forefront of the region.

We still need to discover what will happen in Africa and the Middle East. The Middle East will probably be controlled by Turkey, Israel, and Saudi Arabia, all connected in some way with the United States. Here, China and Russia will have to find creative ways to exercise their influence under the current global reordering. Will the BRICS finally be able to take off? It seems almost impossible, since the nations that form this group are far from complementing each other and even compete, as happens with China and India.

Despite everything, Russia seems to be losing part of the game: it has not managed to establish itself and advance in Europe as it wanted, it has lost influence in Asia (although it maintains its closeness with North Korea), and in the Middle East it has sought influence through Syria, Afghanistan and others, which have ultimately failed spectacularly.

Trump, the self-proclaimed "president of peace," instead of extinguishing conflicts, is deliberately fanning them. He is getting involved and spending billions of dollars of American taxpayers' money launching bombs in the Middle East.

Trump announced hours ago that he had ordered a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. The same thing that happened with the conflict between Pakistan and India: in the end, the conflicts continue. Nobody pays attention to Trump. They are systematically making him look ridiculous.

That is precisely the plan of both Putin and Netanyahu: turn him into a puppet, maintain active conflicts to perpetuate themselves eternally in power through nationalism and the military apparatus.

This is what we have come to. There is the misnamed "president of peace." He doesn't deserve a Nobel Peace Prize, but perhaps an award for the worst political performance in modern history.
