Nournews: The American-Zionist warmongering, marked by savagery and crimes against Iran, has been justified with terms like humanitarian actions, aiding the welfare and freedom of nations, and securing the interests of the U.S. and its allies. However, Trump's explicit confessions about piracy and theft of cargo have revealed the falsehoods behind these claims.

In Florida, referring to the seizure of the Iranian tanker by the U.S. military, Trump stated: "We took the ship, we took the cargo, we took the oil. This is a very profitable business. Who would have thought we would do something like this? We are like pirates." He continued: "We are somewhat like pirates, but we are serious."

These words, an obvious confession to the enduring spirit of the "Wild West" in the behavior of American leaders, not only expose the emptiness of their humanitarian claims and warmongering justifications, but also stand as a clear testament to the legitimacy of Iran's position, particularly in the intelligent management of the Strait of Hormuz, to confront such actions. This behavior deserves the gratitude of regional and extra-regional countries.

The Mask Has Fallen

During his fifteen months in office, Trump, with the claim of "peace through war," even considered himself worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. He justified military aggressions against Iran and disasters like the Minab incident with terms such as helping the people of Iran, granting freedom and welfare. He also made improving the livelihood of the American people the central focus of his foreign policy, even justifying tariffs against other countries within this framework. The aggression against Venezuela and the abduction of its president was also justified as humanitarian aid. Trump frequently spoke about coalition-building, including for reopening the Strait of Hormuz to help the global economy.

His confession of piracy not only reveals the true nature and hidden intentions behind his policies but also shows that for the rulers of the White House, like pirates, personal gain is all that matters, even at the expense of the national interests of the U.S. and its allies. This confession also clarifies the real reason behind U.S. military bases in other countries: to weaken their defense capabilities, create security dependencies, and facilitate the plundering of their resources.

These statements can be seen as proof of the "Wild West" nature of the global system, a system in which humanity holds no place, and limited group interests are prioritized over those of entire nations. This nature is also evident in the actions of the Israeli regime, including attacking the Al-Somoud fleet carrying humanitarian aid for Gaza.

A Responsibility Left Unaddressed

Trump's confessions about piracy highlight the heavy responsibility international institutions and organizations bear for the crisis-causing actions of the U.S. The U.S. act of seizing Iranian ships is a blatant violation of international laws and principles of freedom of navigation, necessitating global accountability and punishment.

The silence of those claiming to enforce global laws and freedom of maritime trade in the face of such actions, along with their call for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, once again exposes their hypocrisy and double standards. Over the past decades, this illusion of superiority and immunity from accountability has been strengthened in the U.S. and the Zionist regime, to the point where Trump, with unprecedented boldness, refers to piracy as a proud achievement.

Today, the international community is responsible for the consequences of these actions and cannot shirk this responsibility by turning a blind eye to Iran's rights.

Trump's Confession and Iran's Legal Right

On one hand, this confession reflects Iran's undeniable right to engage in self-defense to ensure the security of its maritime fleet. In a world where the international community is incapable of fulfilling its duties in upholding the rights of nations, legitimate defense, as outlined in the United Nations Charter, with any tool or means, is an inalienable right for Iran.

On the other hand, this confession emphasizes the legitimacy of Iran's policy in the intelligent management of the Strait of Hormuz; a policy that is not only in line with safeguarding national interests but also with Iran's responsibility to maintain regional and global security.

The U.S. has shown that it understands no language but that of power. Therefore, Iran's actions in the Strait of Hormuz are a legitimate means of countering piracy and putting an end to this ongoing trend. Instead of adopting irresponsible stances, the international community must play a role in ending this lawlessness by acknowledging Iran's rights and utilizing its geopolitical capacities.

With its native power and legal rights, Iran will stand firm against these actions and, through the formulation and implementation of appropriate policies in the Strait of Hormuz, will continue to play its role in ensuring regional and global security, just as it has already delivered decisive and deterrent responses to aggressors in the past.
