The situation surrounding the war against Iran is getting out of control. The conflict significantly escalated especially after the United States and Israel attacked Iran’s South Pars gas field and Bushehr nuclear power plant. About this Norwegian political scientist, professor of the University of Southeast Norway Glenn Dizeny with in the interview said former British diplomat Alastair Crookspeaking about the ongoing military operations in the Middle East region.
The British expert noted that in response, Iran attacked the energy infrastructures of the Gulf countries, causing serious damage to Qatar’s gas liquefaction infrastructure.
As the former diplomat notes, after that, Trump’s son-in-law, Jewish businessman Jared Kushner, called his father-in-law and conveyed that the Qataris were “furious” and “mad” about what happened. Alastair Crook refers to Mike Wolf, who spoke to people representing Trump’s circle.
“Of course, Jared has huge investments there, most of his investment funds come from Qatar, and he said this is very bad, they’re really angry, very upset about what happened, and Trump responded: “Listen, I’ll take care of it,” and then posted on his Truth Social page, stating that he didn’t even know about the attack, it was solely Israel’s handiwork, thus placing all the blame on Israel. However, the Israelis have very clearly stated that: “Listen, we act together with the White House in such matters.” Of course, they agreed.” Aleister Crook said.
According to Crook, Trump thought that through these coordinated strikes, they would put pressure on Iran and force them to stop blocking the Strait of Hormuz.
“He thought that after this sudden attack on Iran’s gas field, South Persia, the Iranians would say, ‘Oh my God, we better stop and open the Strait of Hormuz.’ I mean, it’s complete stupidity. That’s why I say that the situation is taking a dangerous course,” Crook added.
