State of affairs in today's world

hashtagNaval Battle Group Middle East I just read that John Bolton has dispatched a naval battle group to the Middle East…WHY? The excuse this administration has given is because Iran has plans to make attacks on US personnel in the region. Really! An administration that doesn’t listen to or is willing to cast aside information from its intelligence services makes me rather suspicious. In 1990 President H W Bush popularity rose with the first Gulf war and again after 9/11 President George Bush junior enjoyed a surge in popularity after entering Iraq and Afghanistan. So what is the real reason for this move…? In light of Trumps political situation and the fact he is trying to prevent witnesses from giving testimony especially Robert Mueller leads me to believe there is a deeper reason behind the move. Not only is John Bolton a war monger and has made it clear in the past he would like to attack Iran but more so as the walls close in on Donald Trump it seems this is the last throw of the dice should it become necessary to take the public’s attention away from his administrations activities. Start a war for political gain but where will it end? With another country overthrown and more American and allied lives wasted! Does this administration really think we are all naive?
hashtagGrim future Are we on the brink or will common sense prevail? 6 countries at present have us in a spin, Russia, USA, North Korea, Venezuela, China and Israel.. Look at their demographics. Eastern Europe- Central America- South China Sea- Pacific and the Middle East. 4 volatile areas that if escalated could plunge us into a war at the drop of a hat and it just takes one man in each of those countries to say or do the wrong thing. Of those countries 4 have nuclear weapons and the vehicles to deliver them so how can we allow the rhetoric and posturing be allowed to continue? Simple these elected officials and self-proclaimed dictators control what happens next it’s out of the ordinary woman or man’s control but we pay the price if they decide to play the game where everyone dies. The UN has no back bone since the big 3 have veto power and it’s hard to reel them in when they hold all the cards; After all what small country without nuclear weapons is going to go against Russia, China or the USA? In short we are at the mercy of 4 men in 4 of those countries mentioned, the future looks grim if there is a future!
