Trump Plays UFC Tough To Mask His Capitulation To Iran [View all]

Morning all. Yes, there is a new Iran “deal,” but of course nothing is written and once again the White House is disputing Iranian reports of what Trump agreed to. Some notes on the “deal”:

How Much Money Did Trump Promise Iran? - This is the big one. Iran wants hundreds of billions to rebuild their country after Trump’s attacks. They can get it by tolling the Straight of Hormuz or Trump pays. Trump claims there will be no tolls and there was no commitment for a $300b reconstruction fund (yes that the American people be on the hook for). I don’t believe him.

Israel And Bibi Are Not On Board - In the past when Israel broke Trump’s “cease fire” Iran would respond with attacks against its adversaries in the region. Will that cycle begin anew?

When Will We Get The Real Bill? - How much will Trump’s failed war actually cost the US? It’s critical we fight for true costing of the huge inflation we’ve seen, the repairing of our bases in the region, the rebuilding of our military, whatever Trump promised to buy off Iran, and reduced American global deterrence (due to our weakened state, failure in the region, delusional leadership). We’ve come out of the war in a far weaker global position and that weakness may end up proving very, very costly to America.
