Trump’s turn toward war with Iran was not a break from “America First” by accident, but the outcome of behind-the-scenes pressure from pro-Zionist financial and political networks.
The strange genesis of the United States of America’s illegal execution of a foreign head of state who was also the spiritual leader of many of the world’s Shia Muslims in a war of attrition supported by only 21 percent of Americans lies in November and December 2024, with a seemingly anodyne choice of White House personnel. During those months, Trump appointed Howard Lutnick as Secretary of Commerce and Scott Bessent as Secretary of the Treasury—and left Robert Lighthizer, the U.S. Trade Representative in Trump’s first administration, out in the cold. Lighthizer is a policy intellectual who spoke against the doctrine of “free trade” and a true believer in using carefully crafted tariffs to re-source labor to America. Lutnick and Bessent are creatures of Wall Street and the Jewish Zionist networks which since the 1980s have justified and implemented “free trade” via White House appointments, think tank donations, and academic sponsorships. At the time of Lutnick’s and Bessent’s appointments, Lighthizer expressed concerns that America First policies would not be top of mind for people who’d spent their professional lives opposing them. According to the reporter who interviewed Lighthizer,
He sounded contemplative, trying to imagine the incentives of the particular men who might now wield influence over the President. “I don’t know—I don’t know how billionaires think,” Lighthizer went on, perhaps thinking of Trump, too. “I’ve never been one.”
Lighthizer did not misrepresent his level of knowledge of billionaires. What has happened with these appointments has been far more of a betrayal than what he foresaw. Like many seemingly bland personnel moves in the insider operations of empire, the sidelining of Lighthizer and the appointment of Lutnick and Bessent effectively secured the cooption of Lighthizer’s “America First” platform that Trump won reelection on: a platform of re-sourcing domestic production and extracting ourselves from foreign ties. What we have instead, a year and a half later, is that platform’s inverse—an empire running amok, decapitating foreign leaders and waging war. And this is thanks to the circle of whom Lutnick and Bessent are the Administration’s most visible members: Zionists who induced Trump, based on his obsessions with foreign investment and resource extractions, into global wars for the benefit of "Israel". Tracing Trump’s desires and how they were played on by this cohort shows how power works in America at the hands of the Zionist networks run largely, though not exclusively, by connected American Jews who arbiter our institutions—and which effectively disenfranchise Americans from exercising a say in our country.
