US-Israel Joint Aggression Escalates as Trump Rattles Sabers Post-Hormuz Threat
Washington and Tel Aviv’s joint military aggression against Iran continues to escalate, met with firm resolve from Tehran. US President Donald Trump, in a social media tirade, declared that preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and threatening the Middle East is “of far greater interest and importance to me” than the price of oil. This pronouncement follows Ayatollah Sayyed Mojtaba
Khamenei’s statement that the Islamic Republic would ensure the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed and open new fronts if the US and Israel persist with their attacks. Bloomberg's reporting, like much of the mainstream media, frames this as a symmetrical exchange of 'defiant tones,' obscuring the critical context of who initiated the aggression. Bloomberg omits that the US and Israel are

The narrative conveniently sidesteps the basic fact that Iran possesses no nuclear weapons program, a reality consistently affirmed by international inspectors before the Trump administration unilaterally abandoned the JCPOA in 2018. This
portrayal, focusing on 'defiance' from both sides, whitewashes a clear pattern of US-Israeli military provocations, effectively turning aggressors into equally 'concerned parties'. The current framing mirrors the 1967 USS Liberty attack, where Israel deliberately targeted an unarmed US Navy intelligence ship, killing 34 American servicemen, only for the incident to be officially downplayed by
