Bill To Pre-Emptively Attack Iran Introduced In Congress
by Whitney Webb, TrueActivist.com
Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) recently introduced a bill that would enable to US to invade Iran for the stated purpose of preventing it from obtaining nuclear weapons.
During the 2016 election, Donald Trump seemed to be the “anti-war” candidate compared to his then-opponent Hillary Clinton, especially when he spoke out against US interventionism and pledged to heal ties with Russia. Though ties with Russia have smoothed over since Trump took office, Trump has taken a more militaristic tone with some other foreign powers as evidenced by his recent statements and actions regarding both Iran and China. While the rise of antagonism between the US and these regional powers is troubling for a variety of reasons, just as troubling is the gusto with which some US congressmen are working to advance the “inevitability” of a military conflict between them.
Earlier this month, Congressman Alcee Hastings (D-FL) introduced H.J.Res. 10 or the “Authorization of Use of Force Against Iran Resolution.” Taken at face value, the bill appears to allow the President to authorize military force against Iran, which is bad enough. Yet, the text of the bill goes further – it authorizes the president to launch a “pre-emptive” war with the Middle Eastern nation without requiring Congressional approval and without the necessity of Iran having actually committed any action that would warrant a full-scale invasion. Specifically, the text of the bill states that: “The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as the President determines necessary and appropriate in order to achieve the goal of preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.”
Considering Trump and his national security team’s hostility towards Iran, it seems likely that – if passed – the bill could be used as a “blank check” to realize many of the threats that have already been made. As soon as Trump was officially inaugurated, his administration announced its plans to develop a “state of the art” missile defense system intended to prevent attacks launched specifically from North Korea or Iran. While the inclusion of North Korea is more easily justified, the Iranian defense shield is a hawkish move given that Iran has not acted aggressively towards the U.S. In addition, both the CIA and Israeli intelligence have confirmed that Iran has no nuclear weapons program nor has it ever been interested in one.
However, Trump’s stance on Iran, as well as that of many other US politicians, is not influenced by Iran’s actions, but by Israel’s. Trump’s ties to Israel have become decidedly closer in the months since his election, likely owing to Trump’s chief strategist – Steve Bannon – being a “passionate Zionist” and Vice President Mike Pence’s strongly pro-Israel views. As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently said, the state of Israel’s “supreme goal” is the containment of Iran, suggesting that the US politicians who have aligned themselves with Israel also share this vision.
Though Iran’s disdain for Israel is clear, Israel has pursued its goal of “containment” in militaristic fashion, with over 200 Israeli nuclear weapons currently pointed at Iran’s capital Tehran. Israel’s government expects the same tactics from those U.S. politicians most sympathetic to its cause. It should also come as no surprise, then, that the same author of this “pre-emptive war” with Iran resolution, Congressman Alcee Hastings, received over $70,000 from the Pro-Israel lobby last election cycle. This bill and the militant posturing against Iran within US politics is a clear sign that Israel’s influence continues to overpower the national interest.

Very likely, if there’s chance that US will choke on red China, Iran is option B.
>>>Congressman Alcee Hastings, received over $70,000 from the Pro-Israel lobby last election cycle.
American taxpaying sheeple send Isahell +$3 Billion a year and they in turn use U.S. proxies to buy up American real estate and Congresstitutes.
Congress has no constitutional authority to turn over it’s constitutional duties to the president.
The United States is a signatory to the UN conventions that state that a country can attack another only to defend itself if it is attacked or the attack is authorized by the Security Council. That is international law.
America has become so lawless that a whole Congress full of lawyers are passing a law to break the law.
A plan to pre-emptively attack Israel for actually possessing nuclear weapons would be far more logical.
Iran has not attacked anyone, Why?

Iran stated that they were going to eventually blow Israel off the map , along with America and Europe . I remember that the president had power to declare war on a country immediately , but it had to be brought up before the house and senate 60 or 90 days later in order to see if anymore dealings was nessesary . Meaning that they would vote wheather the war was to continue . The reason being , the president having the nuke button does not have to take the vote to congress to defend our country from rouge threats happening now ! Obama went to the UN to receive permission to declare war on Russia at any time he wished . Problem being we are not owned by the UN , muslims or any other entity like the NWO , Vatican natzi . Our Constitution so states this and calls it Treason ! But seems the last 5 presidents were kissing their asses ! I’m so glad Trump has balls enough to stand up to them and take back our country .
Based on all the available information one can easily concluded that Iran never said any such thing about blowing Israel off the map. Although their former leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad did repeatedly question both the legitimacy of the current state of Israel and the holocaust, it seems he never threatened Israel in the way you suggest.
Overwhelmingly historians understand that the false information is propagated through divisional Jewish propaganda. The rhetoric is designed to evoke sympathy or favorable international policies for a nation of Nazis, wanta-be Jews. They play the roleof the victim while being aggressive. One important point needs to be made. The Jewish people have been kicked out of, or scrutinized in nearly every country they’ve ever settled in over the years. They want badly to steer the narrative or should I say the manipulative guilt trip!.
Based on all the conflicting facts, the truth about the holocaust is questionable. That if you have the courage to question it. What is quite revealing, what tells us this is likely a huge strategic lie is that in most of Europe a person can do significant jail time for merely denying the holocaust or contradicting the official narrative. The truth needs no protection, but dishonesty sure does! The official Jewish narrative is suspicious. It does not explain how the American forces had shut down Nazi supply routes which consequently resulted in the starvation and disease outbreaks that killed an immeasurable amount of Jews, Jehovah’s Witnesses, homosexuals and others deemed by the Nazis to be social impurities.
Although evidence does suggest that mass graves did truly exist, the victors in the war got to write history so their version is awfully one sided and not always candid. There is a extremely selective record of alternatives takes, yet the Jewish narrative fails to explain or even acknowledge how it has been determined that the number one so called gas chamber turned out to be modified to appear threatening years after the war was over. Original pictures and documentation suggest that this facility was in fact a delousing facilities not an extermination chamber.
One thing I know to be fact is that many of the pictures used to forward the Jewish narrative are not actually of Jewish people in Nazi captivity. It appears that a lot of the pictures I viewed which were presented as Nazi concentration camp atrocities were in actuality pictures taken inside American/allied forces concentration camps that were scattered all across Europe. These outdoor, open air shanties provided no shelter for German and Nazi prisoners during harsh winter months. People died of exposure, starvation and disease in the droves to the tune of nearly five million by the time all was said and done. The death tole of German prisoners of war is a matter of accepted history.
Now not being actively there in World War, having firsthand account I honestly can’t say for sure what the truth is. I don’t want to bear false witness so I am just repeating what my somewhat limited research uncovered, an alternative view. I make no claims as to the authenticity of what I’ve read. Truth is, I haven’t as of yet decided what side of the fence I’ll reside on.
My point really is that we live in Satan’s word, a matrix of deceit. We must therefore always be cautiously reserved about giving credibility to that which is neither given by God or witnessed by our own two eyes. All is never what it seems.

This has been coming for years. They got to get a */atian controlled central bank into Iran, one way or another, it’s all about the central banks and getting control of the resources just like Afganistan, got to get a peice of that p0ppy action while at the same time stripping Americans of freedoms and furthering their survellance p0lice state here in the U.S., not to mention more money for the military industrial c0mplex. Remember G. W. Bush’s speech after 911 naming off Iran Irak and N0rth K0rea as the problem countries, well Of Course they were just linging up their next targets, so that it won’t be a suprise when they attack and invade. this has been planned out for years, they have to demonize these countries as much as possible in the conservative media using people like Saun hannity and others so they can whip up the country into a frenzy to justify and gain support for their ILLegal and unconstitutional attacks and occupations. In all fairness though I understand that these countries are not the gratest places in the world and they have caused problems in the past, have horrible records on human rights and other thingsAs hard as it is for some people to believe, reality is that some of this demonisation is theater and deception. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2LEgowbzSc

Daniel 8 prophecy of the end times describes the military destruction first of Media (Iraq) and later Persia (Iran) by the goat with the one large horn (US superpower) from the West. Note after both these countries military power are destroyed the super horn(US) is destroyed and 4 smaller horns will rule the UN. (Russia, China, England and the EU represented by France.)
