In his Wednesday evening speech to announce to the American people the continuation and potential intensification of his war against Iran, President Donald Trump conceded that as far as oil is concerned the war will bring no benefit for Americans. Instead, he said he is undertaking the war just to help “allies.”

Stated Trump:

We’re now totally independent of the Middle East, and yet we are there to help. We don’t have to be there. We don’t need their oil. We don’t need anything they have, but we’re there to help our allies.

Meanwhile, most of the national governments commonly referred to as “allies” of the US are refusing to aid the US and Israel in pursing the war on Iran. They don’t see taking part as appropriate, whether to gain some benefit related to oil or for any other reason. Some are even calling for an end to the war on Iran that is bringing death and destruction on a large scale in the Middle East while causing economic havoc across the world.

Of course, Trump’s admission regarding oil follows the results of his own actions in starting, along with the Israel government, a war against Iran. That attack on Iran has led to the terminating of much oil production, the shutting down of a large portion of oil distribution, and a jumping upward of the price of oil. The oil-related harm to Americans and people across the world arising from the Iran War is too obvious for even most extreme war supporters to now bother trying to explain away.

Trump’s admission in his prepared Iran War address to the American people that that war provides no benefit to Americans related to oil should help increase opposition to the war across America. It should also help lead more Congress members to vote “no” on funding the war.
