Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif commented on Thursday that President Trump may be aiming to create a “pretext for war.” “Intelligence from Iraq indicate plot to fabricate pretext for war” remarked Zarif via twitter according to english.alarabiya.net. Zarif’s comments were made three days before the first anniversary of the assassination of Iranian General Qasem Soleimanii, killed January 3, 2020 in a U.S. drone strke. Zarif warned Trump against any “adventurism” before leaving office, saying “putting your own citizens at risk abroad won’t divert attention from catastrophic failures at home”
The U.S.military have flown B-52 bomber planes over the Persian Gulf, deployed the U.S.S. Nimintz warship to the Middle East, and sent a U.S. Navy guided-missile submarine into the Strait of Hormuz heightening tensions and speculations that US-Iran is at the brink of war. “Instead of fighting COVID-19 in US, Donald Trump and cohorts waste billions to fly B52s and send armadas to OUR region,” said Iran’s Foreign Minister Muhammad Zarif. “Iran doesn’t seek war but will OPENLY and DIRECTLY defend its people, security and vital interests,” he said.
In 2018 Trump backed out of the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal and imposed harsh sanctions on Iran applying a “maximum pressure” campaign. Trump have arrogantly threatened to bomb Iran and hinted U.S. involvement in the planning of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani’s assassination. Iran’s top Nuclear Scientist, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh was assassinated months ago. U.S. surrogate Israel was assumed responible.
The Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif voiced his concerns via video to the UN General Assembly months ago. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan have warned numerous U.S. Presidents about the consequences of U.S. engagement in economic and military conflicts. The Time and What Must Be Done, Farrakhan Speaks Lecture Series (Part 41) entitled Guidance For Our President And Our Nation details several of Minister Farrakhan’s warnings.
