Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org July 1, 2025
In discussion yesterday with Nima on Dialogue Works about the Israeli-Iranian-Trump-Netanyahu ongoings, I suggested a bold and innovative plan for the Middle East that Trump should present to the world in a speech to the UN General Assembly. I even offered to write the speech. https://www.youtube.com/live/L-8j_NSxC14
I formed the plan from mulling over insights into Trump’s attitude toward the Middle East from Gilbert Doctorow, Michel Chossudovsky, and from Trump’s news conference with Netanyahu when Trump stated Washington’s claim to Gaza as an American possession.
Doctorow pointed out that it was irrelevant whether Trump had destroyed the three underground Iranian nuclear sites. What mattered is that Trump’s assertion, true or false, had destroyed Netanyahu’s excuse for war with Iran. Is Netanyahu going to risk Washington’s protection by contradicting President Trump?
Chossudovsky pointed out that in the press conference at which Trump stated Washington’s claim to Gaza, Trump expressed the idea of a Gaza resort as the anchor for an American Middle East colony in place of Greater Israel.
In front of Netanyahu Trump unveiled a vision of a Middle East made rich by American management. It would be a different kind of colonial management from the British/French approach that extracted assets and sent them home to Britain and France. Trump envisioned a partnership in which the “colonies” would be shareholders sharing in the profits from economic development. This would be good for Israel as well. When a presstitute asked Netanyahu his opinion, Netanyahu did not disavow it.
I was surprised that Trump’s claim to Gaza and its reconstruction and his idea of a reconstruction of the Middle Eastern countries that previous US regimes had destroyed for Israel did not get a big news play. But Chossudovsky saw it, and he helped me to see it.
Ask yourselves, Is there any better solution to the Israeli-Muslim problem in the Middle East?
Israel is smaller in area than New Jersey. Iran is 2.5 times larger than Texas. Israel has fewer than 10 million people. Iran has more than 90 million people. Iran can produce modern missiles in greater quantities than Israel can be supplied from the US. In a recent news conference in a demonstration of Israeli insanity, Netanyahu added the territory of Pakistan to Greater Israel. Pakistan has nuclear weapons and a population of 250 million.
Israel has zero chance of winning a war with Iran and the same for Pakistan.
Israel knows this but is confident that the power that the Israel Lobby can exert over dumbshit American’s lives and money guarantees that Americans will fight more wars for Israel. The Israeli-subsidized Christian Zionists–a contradiction of terms–are all for it. Amazing, isn’t it, Israel has even corrupted Christian evangelicals, paying their preachers to send Americans to war for Israel.
What might be reducing Israel’s control over America is the weakened position of Netanyahu, under two Israeli court indictments for crimes, and by the destruction inflicted on Israel by its irresponsible attack on Iran, culminating in Netanyahu’s plea to Trump to stop the war before Israel had to sue for peace.
This leaves Trump with the upper hand. Israel now understands that it cannot exist without Washington’s protection. Thus Trump can force Netanyahu to give up the unrealistic Zionist goal of Greater Israel and comply with Trump’s vision of a colony under America’s redevelopment of the Middle East.
If Trump would take this plan to the UN, it would silence Israel and the American neoconservative zionists and save us from war that could turn nuclear.
If Trump establishes peace and cooperation in the Middle East, he can do the same with the West and Russia. Russia was the ally of Britain and France in both WW I and WW II. It is not difficult to come to terms with a former ally. There is no ideological reason and no territorial reason for conflict between the West and Russia.
Think about America’s waste of resources and prestige during the first quarter of the 21st century. Trillions of dollars spend destroying Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Somalia with zero gain. No one except military/security war profits got anything from these wars. There was no terrorist threat. Washington brought no one democracy, only destruction.
Think about the destruction Washington brought to entire countries for no purpose than Israel’s absurd idea of a Greater Israel. The millions of dead, permanently maimed, and dislocated people, many of whom have located in Europe and the US burdening those taxpayers with their upkeep. WHO BENEFITTED??
Let’s give Trump a chance. An American partnership in the Middle East is far better than the conflicts inherent in Greater Israel. If Israel refuses to go along, Trump should just run over them. Israel is of no consequence in the world. Israel since its existence has never been anything except a cause of conflict, death, and destruction. Why a people like this has been tolerated, I do not know.
Can Sunni and Shia be brought together and Muslims brought together with Jews? Seems fantastic. But perhaps they will see it as preferable to the continuation of endless bloodshed.
If Netanyahu has any sense, he will let Trump rescue the Israeli people.
Absolutely bonkers!
Take this…
“There is no ideological reason and no territorial reason for conflict between the West and Russia.”
This is a very stupid statement. The Nazis want Russia broken up and shell Nazi regimes installed who do what the City Crime Cartels tells them to do.
Do fall for the scribbles above. What are the terms for this 60 day ceasefire?
Nutanyahu weakened, he was weakened two years ago when Joolandia was on the brink of civil war, and it still is. This peace myth, when Iran is a full BRICS member, and a key component of China’s Belt & Road initiative. Nazi Amerika wants a resort in Gaza, that’s going to be hard wired into the Chinese trade systems? Or, maybe Greater Naziland will will fly and ship in everything, paid with debt?
Stop this idea that Donald Hitler is setting the pace, he’s not. If Joolandia has nukes, and I’m not convinced, then it’s abundantly clear that Russia and China have read the riot act to Israel and Nazi Amerika that said nukes can’t be used, it just won’t be tolerated.
So let’s say we get the Gaza Strip, and Nazi Amerika manages the local area. They are still faced with the BRICS, and a Chinese/Russian led world order.
I can tell you now, the Nazis who are in power won’t accept the plaster suggested in the article. Bibi is dying, and word has it, Donald Hitler is very ill as well. You might have noticed he now has triple makeup and his face is very puffy. We know that most US presidents are very ill when in office, so why not Donald Hitler?
We haven’t even covered the Big Beautiful Bill, which will hand the Nazi eiltes $4 trillion in tax cuts, an act of wonton economic destruction that will trigger hypertension, because this inflates the debt away, but also impoverished the already poor sheeple.
PCR used to be a financial secretary, maybe No2 under Raygun (Reagan). But he has no apparent interest in the BBB that’s just been passed by the Senate, and maybe, like me, he sees no other alternative.
The US Nazis might get their Middle East colony, but it doesn’t do anything to accomplish their principle objectives.
Iran can produce modern cgi’s in greater quantities than Israel can upload from the US. Is this guy on pcp? ‘Can Sunni and Shia be brought together? NO and sunniMuslims brought together with Jews? YES. Seems fantastic in pseudo logica.
Don’t worry about it, everything is going according to plan.

Divert the white man from his own war/predicament (i.e, the invasion of the West by millions of wogs; white female mulatto-mongrel makers & the genocide of whites in Ukraine by anti-white eurasian russia) onto Jew & wog conflicts/issues (Israel/Palestine/Iran) far away.
please remove this stupid guy and his natzi talk

LONDONISTAN
news from the trenches
Revealed: London boroughs with most arson attacks as expert links rise in blazes and social unrest
to the UKs participation in the mass murders in Palestine
Arson attacks in London have increased by almost a third in two years – with experts linking the rise to a spike in anger with Kier Starmers racism against British people, migrant swamping and the palestinian holocaust
This data comes after Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer spoke of how shaken his family were following an alleged fire bomb attack in May on his former home in Kentish Town, where his sister-in-law now lives,
he flatly denied using rent boys there and said they only came in to play cards
Arson offences across the city have increased by 28 per cent, from 1,894 incidents reported in 2022 to 2,430 recorded in 2024, according to data published by the London Assembly.
At City Hall last month, Stephen Mackenzie, an independent fire, security, and resilience consultant, said: “Arson is the straight go-to for social unrest, now that guns have gone
After all the lies and crazy talk, Paul Craig Roberts still gives Trump the time of day? Unbelievable!!!!
RE: The “Israeli-Muslim problem”…there’s no Israeli-Muslim problem…there’s a Jew problem, and it’s NOT limited to the Middle East. The Middle East is simply the current primary focus region. Of course, reducing the white populations of the “western” countries to “wog” status (“wogization”) is a huge focus too, and, when the ME situation is tidied up, killing off these newly minted wogs will become the new primary focus…unless these made-wogs rapidly smarten up, put aside their petty differences, identify the enemies by name, and unite to kill them first.
Can Sunni and Shia be brought together with Jews? The Mossad, CIA, MI6 and other “western” powers have exerted huge effort and spent billions of dollars to create enmity between Sunnis and Shias (Divide and Conquer). Furthermore, the Sunnis, at the leadership level at least, appear to be “with” the Jews already, as evidenced by the blind eyes and deaf ears turned regarding the slaughter and dispossession of Palestinians.
Of course, it is frequently alleged that the Sunni leadership are in fact crypto Jews, put into their positions by the British, French, and Americans post WWI in parceling up the Ottoman Empire. Control of Arabs in favor of Jews (the “western” powers) surely was a major concern in drawing those “national” boundaries and appointing those “leaders.”
As an American, I’m the first to admit that most of us Americans aren’t terribly bright (“dumb-shit Americans”), with educations that are especially lacking in the areas of history, geography, culture, and language…ironically, a major success of our so-called educational system, which is purposely designed for this outcome, for keeping the masses dumb and ignorant of the real world leaves the real decision-making to the “Elites.”
So of course, here in America, we have the rednecks, who don’t know anything about real history or politics and furthermore don’t even know what they don’t know (a very dangerous situation), spurred on by corrupt politicians, baying for the defunding of such courses. Don’t join these ignoramuses…these courses are fundamental to the proper functioning of our society. The problem is that their teaching has been taken over by Jews, of the Zionist and Communist flavors. A great irony, of course, is that Europeans can probably hear a low but ominous rumble emanating from the west, the collective prayers of American rednecks for Israel, actually made audible by their intensity and widespread occurrence.
“Knowledge for the Sake of Knowledge!”
It is said that the Palestinians are at least 40% Christians, but the war mongering Christian Zionists have been duped to believe that the ungodly abomination called the people of Israel are G-d’s chosen. So carried away are they that the some 50 million US Christian Zionists, not to mention such in all other countries contribute to the destruction of G-d’s true chosen people, the “apple of His eye”, the Arab Christians.
This is because very few even bother to read their Bibles, being taught to believe in their clerics, not what their Bibles actually say. Yet two millenia ago:
Their ears are being tickled by Christian radio stations and TV programming owned by the Pharasaic money changine Khazarian Mafia (KM), who keep toting the line that all Arabs are wicked, and that Hamas, an Israeli creation is terrorising the Jewish Israeli inhabitants. Rather than believing their eyes, seeing the truths slipping through the mainstream KM owned mainstream media, the Israeli settler and IDF cruelty, their destruction of Palestinian property and lives, continue to believe their lying clerics.
Unfortunately rather than resulting in:
They listen to so-called KM adulterated, copyrighted, owned “Christian praise” music that speaks very little of serving and helping the poor, the destitute and lacking widows, orphans and struggling families. If they had only read:
Which is a restatement of:
They get their ears tickled with the Zionist “prosperity gospel” (G-d blesses those who give richly to their ministry) by leaders such as the abominably divorced and remarried, ultra wealthy John Hagee, owner of a 7,600 acre Texas ranch with many choice facilities including a hotel, a private airstrip with 2 of his hangared corporate business jets and owns several houses.
Hagee through his Christians United for Israel (CUFI) has spent several million dollars funding Christ hating Bolshevik Jews to immigrate from Russia to Israel, winning high praise from the Jewish Lobby, but has done little to help the Palestinians and other Arabs, many who are Christians, who are being mistreated by Israel. They think these ungodly Bolshevik Jews are G-d’s chosen people, having never read:
