In “As You Like It” by William Shakespeare, there are famous words recited that remind us that what we see may not be all that it seems. “All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players.” In this monologue the character Jaques takes us through the stages of life. Since the advent of television the stage has been set for entertainment and infotainment. In the events of Iran and Iraq, I could not help but notice the theater on display over the weekend.
The Biden administration and senior intelligence officials have been warning that Iran would attack within 48 hours. That warning went without action for a week. Then by this weekend our naval forces moved closer to the coast to respond to what was deemed, an imminent launch against Israel. Hours before the Iranian offensive ABC News reported there were going to be 400 to 500 drones and missiles launched at Israel by 12:30am. Air space was closed throughout the Middle East.
The specifics of the attack and the ability to maneuver seem to be scripted. Even the Biden administration acknowledged that Israel came out unscathed, as they successfully stopped 99% of the Iranian barrage thrown at Israel. There were no reported casualties as of this reporting. Hollywood movies and suspense television seldom produces results this successful.
Immediately the mainstream media and the alternative media began pushing a narrative of World War III being imminent. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) was clairvoyant. She called for the stern attack of Iran for their actions against Israel before the attack was even launched. Looking into her campaign finances on Open Secrets, her top donor over the past five years was “American Israel Public Affairs Committee.” The lobbyist have been hard at work to manufacture the result they seek.
Social media influencers joined in on the ruse as they posted photos and videos of destruction. Eagle-eyed viewers were quick to point out the recycled footage on CNN and on many other accounts. Most footage was not from Israel. The “players” took to the stage, and many remained unaware of what they were watching.
Conflict is not healthy anywhere in the world. It is important that we calmly assess truth and ask questions. How can the Biden administration reconcile the $6 billion released to Iran with the attacks. The USA is ironically funding all sides of the war and your elected officials are becoming fatter by the day. Enjoy the show!
