The David Hunter Perspective - 2023-01-11

Read on for today's agenda below prepared by David (thank you very much). - Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations  David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.1)Brazil's Far Right Mob Attacked the President's House, Parliament and Supreme Court:  Almost exactly  two years after a pro-Trump mob attacked the US Congress, supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsanaro, ---called  the "Trump of the Tropics", --- attacked Brazil's most important government buildings in a wild riot. Is  Brazil's democracy under threat?  2)Is Iran Planning to Assassinate Donald Trump?:   We have just passed the 3ed anniversary of the US assassination of Al Quds leader, General Qassem Soleimani.  He was killed by a Trump-ordered drone attack inside Iraq, while officially invited to that country to meet Iraqi Prime Minister Abdul-Madhi.    While not a head of state, Soleimani was an Iranian government official on diplomatic assignment, so this Trump-ordered attack was controversial.  Is Iran justified in striking Trump in retaliation?  3)Israel and US  Expanding Military Cooperation?:  Even as a Prime Minister Bibi Netenyahu's Zionist-led coalition has taken control in Israel, the US military seems to be expanding ties with Israel's  Defense Force (IDF).   Is it wise for America to be expanding military ties to Israel right now? What if Israel launches a 'preemptive' attack on Iran?Support the show
