White House interventionist stance against Iran leads nowhere

The hawkish US President Donald Trump has always taken a hostile stance against the Islamic Republic of Iran, emphasizing maximum pressure policy, aimed at forcing Tehran to accept Washington's demands.

Iran PressAmerica: Trump takes every opportunity to intervene in Iran's domestic affairs by claiming sympathy for the Iranian people.

The White House on Sunday, November 17, issued an intervening statement in support of the recent disturbances in Iran.

Echoing its allegations against Iran, the White House supported a handful of rioters who demolished public property in several Iranian cities under the pretext of rising gasoline prices.

Trump pursues a policy of maximum pressure to force Iran to change its behavior and comply with US illegitimate demands while claiming sympathy for the Iranian people.

Trump, however, has stepped up the economic war with the aim of creating widespread poverty and unrest in Iran by withdrawing from the 2015 Iranian nuclear agreement and re-imposing nuclear sanctions on Iran.

Trump's hatred against Iranian nation

He and other senior US officials, in the context of the 'Poverty and Riot Policy', have repeatedly spoken of the need for unprecedented pressure on the Iranian people to force them to revolt against the Islamic Republic.

This is a sign of Trump's hatred against the Iranian people for failing to attract Iranians' support for his evil efforts to defeat the Islamic Republic of Iran.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, whose country has a long history of interfering in Iran's internal affairs, said on Twitter on Saturday night that Washington was backing the Iranian people, citing widespread protests in several Iranian cities.

From the Iranian point of view, the Trump administration seeks to exploit the current situation in pursuit of its own evil ends and has no good intentions about the Iranians.

Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Seyyed Abbas Mousavi, on Sunday night condemned Mike Pompeo's statements, saying that the Iranian people are well aware that these sort of disingenuous and dishonest statements do not carry any sympathy for the Iranian people.

Mousavi referred to ill-intentions, ill-wishings, and spite of Trump administration's officials particularly the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo towards Iran and the Iranian people, and highlighted: "Just a few months ago, Pompeo had said the Iranian people should go hungry so that their resistance is broken and they bow to the United States."

US political failure against Iran

The White House approach towards Iran is based solely on threats, and coercion. For the past 40 years, Iran has consistently defied Washington's policies and actions and has effectively thwarted Washington's conspiracies.

According to the American analyst Trudy Rubin, Trump's open criticism of Iran and his calls for allies to join the anti-Iranian coalition guarantees his policy failure.

Iran has proven successful in countering the Trump administration's hostile policies. The Iranian people have repeatedly demonstrated their loyalty to the Islamic Republic as well as their determination to confront the US conspiracies and they are not fooled by Washington's false sympathy.
