Demoracy Now!’s Amy Goodman speaks with economist Michael Hudson, who details how US President Donald Trump opted to attack Iran despite progress at indirect US-Iran negotiations.
“The whole reason that America has attacked Iran has nothing to do with its getting an atom bomb,” but instead the aim was US control of oil, says Hudson.
The Trump administration may have been after the ability to “turn off the power” to countries that do not follow US foreign policy, he says.
