View from the MAGA Psychiatric Ward - Part 13

In the May 18, 2026 Edition of the Robert Edward “Ted” Turner, III,-founded Cable News Network (CNN) 10pm flagship current affairs talking-heads program, “NewsNight With Abby Phillip,” as usual, President Donald John Trump’s propaganda lapdog and megaphone and, some would say, Echo-Chamber, namely, Mr. Scott Jennings, the State of Kentucky native and tired broadcast media fixture, went off on a tangent in comical defiance of what every child growing up in a technologically advanced and culturally and philosophically enlightened society is often and almost invariably routinely instructed not to seek and/or demand, covetously and gratuitously, namely, the ownership of the inviolable sovereignty of another individual or nation that was diligently and legitimately acquired by the aforesaid neighbor or individual and all the appurtenances that attend the same, all in the wantonly bizarre name of Ethnic and/or Racial Supremacy.

The obvious allusion here is, of course, to the virulently violent and despicably criminal and unspeakably destructive penchant of President Donald John Trump and his so-called MAGA - or Make America Great Again - “Rapepublican” Apostles and Disciples for capriciously and relentlessly and gratuitously demanding, for at least a whole decade now, that which absolutely and unarguably does not belong to this churlish cohort and their pathologically self-infatuated pontiff. Which, of course, has to do with the diligently and the organically acquired and locally evolved technological know-how for the possible and the imminent development of the Nuclear Bomb, a potent and a viable military mechanism of national self-defense avidly coveted all over the globe, and one which the United States of America was one of the first nations to acquire in the Post-World-War 2 Era.

Among the owners of the Almighty Nuke, as it has become popularly known, are China, Russia, Britain, France, India and Pakistan, and the Zionist State of Israel - possibly with the cold-calculated and the brazen complicity of the United States of America and the latter’s NATO Allies, the militarily strategic step-parents of the Post-Nazi-created Mythologically Revanchist State of Israel. Of course, the implacable demand to have the Islamic Revolutionary Republic of Iran solemnly promise never to develop or acquire the Nuke, a rather morally and logically erratic and infantile demand on the part of the MAGA-”Rapepublican” ruled United States of America, has solely and inescapably to do with the patently ungodly desire to have a Zionist Israel perpetually hang on to its faux Torah-predicated mythological nostalgia, in much the same way that some Afrocentric advocates and propagandists of the Post-Slavery and Postcolonial African Holocaust have been quixotically promoting the practical possibility of a reparations-coupled Garvite brand of The Return.

Now, it all too perfectly stands to reason that what is unarguably kosher for Jerusalem or Tel-Aviv should also be equally halal for Tehran and Mashhad or Qom. in the realm of the tenets of the Universal Declaration Human Rights, absolutely no nation or group of people could be deemed to reserve greater or superior rights than another. Which is why the White-Supremacist-laced Darwinian language of America’s Neo-Nazi MAGA Government of President Donald John “Benjamin ‘Mileikowsky’ Netanyahu Finish The Job In Gaza” Trump is clearly insupportable in realm of the Sacred Principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Common Sense. But then, the foregoing observation is absolutely nothing new or especially revelatory, since the MAGA Apostolate is also implacably averse to the civilized democratic principle of the statutorily sanctioned policy of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). In the memorable words of the distinguished African American scholar and thinker, Professor Michael Eric Dyson, the Trump Administration has criminally bastardized the Affirmative Action Policy of DEI into a Policy of Denial, Erasure and Exclusion (DEE).

Now, the most intriguing question here is that if Israel, the globally acknowledged Archnemesis of the Islamic Revolutionary Republic has been known to have acquired the Nuke, via the complicit instrumentality of the United States of America for decades now, although Tel-Aviv, very likely via the strategic counsel of Washington, flatly refuses to either officially or publicly acknowledge that, indeed, it has developed or acquired its own version of this globally most potent and deadly Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD), what should prevent Iran from legitimately and justifiably acquiring or gaining ready access to the same? And just precisely why are President Trump and his Fascist and White-Supremacist Disciples and Apostles “epically” and “furiously” determined to ensure that the Islamic State of Iran never acquires or gets its hands on the Nuke?

There, of course, may be a “multiple” number of reasons for this - you see, we have decided to place the adjective of “multiple” in quotation marks here, because this is a term that has been fast and almost tritely become a commonplace shorthand code in recent American media lexicon, at least over the past several weeks or couple of months. But, of course, the most obvious reason is that the inalienable sovereign right of acquisition of the Nuke poses a present and insufferable danger to the State of Israel, the most violent state in the so-called Middle-East (Middleeast), created in the aftermath of what the late South African Human and Civil Rights Activist and brutally slain Freedom Fighter and Prolific Writer Mr. Stephen “Steve” Biko once termed as The Second European Tribal War, shortly before his grisly assassination by the erstwhile White-Minority Apartheid Regime in that country.

You see, in the apocalyptic aftermath of the Adolf Hitler-crafted Holocaust that sought to thoroughly exterminate the Jews of Europe - or the European Jewry - the great and the emergent European Powers, largely the leaderships of the powerful Western-European countries did not know what to do with these “Veritable Outcasts” and perennial outsiders and convenient scapegoats of economic crises and therefore decided to literally ship and offload them into their Mythological Homeland, in much the same way that some Post-American Civil War and Post-Slavery socioeconomically undesirable and excluded Africans were hastily and haphazardly resettled - properly speaking, literally dumped -in the present-day “Kangaroo Republics” of Sierra Leone and Liberia.

You see, the Europeans and the Americans, to be veritably and emphatically certain, are determined that these unofficial pariahs and unspoken statutory rejects never resurge or resurface, en masse, back into European Society and Community. Which is why European-American Racial Supremacists like the Half-German and Half-Scottish President Donald John Trump earnestly and religiously armed Prime Minister Benjamin “Mileikowsky” Netanyahu –led Likud Party Coalition Government to the hilt by giving the latter what amounted to a carte-blanche license to savagely and wantonly slaughter as many of the native and the indigenous Palestinian Arab residents of the Gaza Strip, so-called, as possible, and the West Bank as well, in much the same manner as Germany’s Chancellor Hitler “generously” visited on the European Jewry between 1932 and 1945.

“Kid Brother Ben, Better Finish The Job on Gaza,” President Trump would meanspiritedly instruct “Little Benji” in the wake of the October 7, 2023, Hamas-orchestrated assault that resulted in the deaths of approximately 2,000 Israeli holiday celebrants and several other foreign nationals in Southern Israel. By the end of what the Israeli Prime Minister gleefully termed as a “proportionately measured act of retaliatory justice,” a globally estimated 100,000 (One-Hundred-Thousand) Palestinians in both Gaza and the West Bank had literally been exterminated, with hundreds of thousands more maimed and displaced.

Now, the foregoing is absolutely no happenstance or sheer coincidence, when one also wedges into the equation, as it were, Vice-President James David “JD” Vance’s description of then Candidate Donald John Trump as “a veritable avatar of Adolf Hitler.” In sum, one has to fully appreciate the strategically balanced and militarily protective role indispensably played by Iran to a seismically overwhelming Israel in order to objectively recognize the imperative need for Iran to either develop or legitimately acquire the Almighty Nuke. More so, when the Israeli government has demonstrated itself to be even far more vicious and bone-chillingly destructive than the Kremlin’s President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, vis-a-vis the Russia-Ukraine War.
