He's only doing that because the Zionists are influencing him to hate Iran. There is no other reason. Although I love Trump, I'm against some of his foreign policies as many don't help Americans - they only help Israel.
He talks about how European countries aren't paying their fair share for defense. Well Israel isn't either and we give them tens of billions of dollars every year. Yet I guaruntee you'll never hear Trump say Israel needs to pay more for defense.
The company has not sold cars in Iran since 2010."
You're telling me there's not a single 2010 or newer Mercedes in Iran? I find that hard to believe. They were likely purchased through a 3rd country and imported in as many goods are. So indirectly there's definitely daimler products making their way to Iran and I'm positive the c suite knows this.
Sanctions don't do anything to leaders except hurt the common people so much that many eventually vent their frustration on their leaders, which in many cases leads to violence as the state theb pushes the line that they're under attack by an aggressive foreigner, cracks down on those opposing the government, then there's demonstrations riots, which are violently suppressed, then coups either attempted or successful, possible civil war.... this same **** has happened countless times in modern history. But in countries with a strong leadership and government with firm control over citizenry, sanctions arely accomplish the desired means - russia didnt give up Crimea and spent a bill building a bridge to it, kept it's military modernization programs save for the t50/pak fa, Assad won the Syrian war, north Korea still built and tested nukes and missles... all sanctions do is hurt the citizenry by causing the currency to decline causing extreme spikes in prices for imports, inflation, etc. Only in weaker states where government isn't as powerful do sanctions achieve the desired effects.
Sanctions aren't going to make irans military any less powerful, it won't reduce the threat to Israel and if anything makes them thinks its all the more necessary to have nukes in case us or Israel goes to the next step that's even more aggressive like say an economic blockade. Then you can definitely expect a violent conflict. All sanctions will do is make average citizens lives more miserable - a chunk of whom will blame the US for their woes and another chunk will blame their own government. But it's not going to lead to any successful coups that's for sure - the ayatollahs, quds force, etc will all remain. Plus Iran just became even more powerful as now Iraq is basically Iran's b1tch. A trillion spent in Iraq over decades, since the 80s Iran Iraq war when us supported and armed saddam, and the thing the US feared most is what happened - an Iraqi leadership that's friendly with Iran and where shia clerics decide who's going to be president, pm, etc
Iran shouldn't give up its nukes or abandon it's program. Who is the US to decide who can have nukes and who can't? If i were president of Poland is start a nuclear program on day 1 to have a powerful deterrent to prevent future invasion. Thats why America will never invade north Korea. They may obliterate them and all their 1950s 60s ussr equipment, but so will nk obliterate Seoul.
