The Firefighter... The Arsonist!

Editor-in-Chief

The least that can be said is that he doesn't stop saying one thing and its opposite, nor does he stop exaggerating the losses of his enemies, and constantly slandering his opponents who concluded an agreement with Iran that almost led it to produce "11" nuclear bombs within days, as "Witkoff" stated in his justification for rushing into war.He said it, and the Americans believed him; when he announced the destruction of the Iranian nuclear reactor in his surprise attack in the "Twelve-Day War," only for us to discover eight months later the opposite of what he said. But he always relies on the goldfish memory of his audience, who have grown weary of his fluctuations and lies.Today, he claims to have eliminated ballistic missiles and the naval force, yet he continues his strikes, and promises more, setting deadlines for the finish line that fluctuate between one and five weeks, and perhaps less or more!"This is not your war," said Omani Foreign Minister "Badr Al Busaidi," the diligent mediator, to "Witkoff," in a scathing critique that implies the truth that Washington prioritized Israel's interests over its own, and was dragged into an "entrapment war" in which Netanyahu fired the first shot, with Trump joining him in his madness instead of curbing his impulsiveness and reining in his rush, which relies on a biblical doctrine dominated by the desire for expansion in "liquid maps."It is Israel's war then, according to what the American journalist "Tucker Carlson" revealed about the apprehension of "Mossad" elements in Doha and Riyadh, who attempted to carry out bombings in Gulf countries to pin them on Iran to fuel the flames.The firefighter aspiring for a Nobel Prize ignites fires to extinguish them, so that he can accumulate his achievements, multiply his good deeds, and earn the right to receive the prize he obsesses over in his travels and stays, in his sleep and in his wakefulness. You see him constantly filling his veins with gasoline, to spew it on the matches he plays with over gas fields, and he goes about his hobby of extinguishing fire with gasoline.The Nobel Committee would do well to award him the prize before its due date, content with what he has "extinguished" so far from fires and what "peace he has achieved"!
