| When you assume Trump does everything in service to Russia and its allies, then this whole thing makes perfect sense. |
OMG |
dp - Our political leadership is 3rd rate (speaking generously) and we've fired tons of our top military leaders. Meanwhile, this war is more expensive than we can afford. Which cards exactly do we hold? |

Haberman: Netanyahu once again used false claims to manipulate America into fighting a war on its behalf. Radical, extremist Zionists who unconditionally defend Israel’s policies and actions once again are proven to be miserable liars. |
Of course they would accept it. I don’t think their country would’ve lasted another 2 weeks with the way Iran was pummeling them. Israel’s historically known for TACO’ing during wars after a week or two : six day war 1967, Yom Kippur war 1973. Once their enemy gains momentum, they end the war |
And don't forget, Iran's oil can now be sold. |
Including Oman gives Iran's control of the Strait of Hormuz a veneer of legitimacy. Smart move. But Trump has basically given Iran the equivalent of the Suez or Panama Canals. Strategically, this has been a big win for Iran. And they still have their uranium and will no doubt have nuclear weapons in a year or two. This morning Trump was threatening to end civilization in Iran. By the evening Trump surrendered to Iran. Republicans are such a disaster for America. They are both agro idiots and crayon-eating surrender monkeys. |
AP: Neither Iran nor the United States has offered any time for the ceasefire to begin |
Wow, so much projection. Iran IS a fundamentalist regime, you dolt. |
We've also fired our top diplomats and put global negotiations in the hands of two middling New York real estate developers. |
Even if you believe Trumps version, that’s not correct. |
Retalliation for the bridge bombings that Israel did today. Tomorrow will be the key. It's theoretically even steven tonight. |
Don't you fret. The rest of the world is already well aware of the global pariah Iran is - even more now than they've always been. |
