Barbara Boyd contrasts the imperial Iraq regime-change war with Trump’s MacArthur-style Iran strategy — deny the nuclear threat, spare the economy, win the peace — and shows why Ukraine is globalism’s last war, as Under Secretary Colby slaps down Mark Carney’s “middle powers” fantasy.
In this Wednesday brief, Barbara Boyd contrasts the Iraq regime-change war with Trump’s approach to Iran and the ongoing Ukraine conflict. She highlights two Truth Social posts: Trump replacing a “20% reimbursement fee” with Gulf trade and investment deals, and a doctored image of Europe’s “Coalition of the Willing” at Trump’s desk showing North America and Greenland under a U.S. flag. Boyd argues Iraq was an imperial, British-influenced sectarian oil war tied to Bernard Lewis and neocon plans, while Trump’s Iran goal is narrowly to prevent an Iranian nuclear weapon, striking military and nuclear infrastructure with minimal civilian casualties and keeping Iran’s economy intact. She compares this to Douglas MacArthur’s isolation strategy against Japan. Boyd then portrays Ukraine as a globalist project begun in 2014, cites Mark Carney’s “middle powers” framing, and spotlights Under Secretary Eldridge Colby’s warning that no alternative can match U.S. defense industry or tech, linking it to Greenland/Canada and “Golden Dome” defense.
