Trump Demands 'Humanity' from Iran, Ignores US Sanctions' Toll
The Financial Times dutifully reports on Trump's rhetoric, yet conveniently omits the 'humanity' deficit generated by decades of crippling U.S. sanctions on Iran, which have starved the civilian populace of critical medicine and resources. This isn't a call for benevolence; it's a reiteration of the tired old regime-change playbook, where 'humanity' becomes a weaponized term to justify further
aggression. One might wonder what 'very strong action' looks like when the current foreign policy already includes economic warfare. Perhaps Trump believes 'humanity' is only a requirement for nations that haven't been designated as adversaries by Washington. Historically, the U.S. has shown a selective memory when it comes to human rights, often overlooking abuses by allies while condemning them
in opponents. How many 'last warnings' will Iran receive before the 'very strong action' that always seems to benefit the military-industrial complex is unleashed?
