US gives Iran USD$300 billion for peace, lifting sanctions, and return to prewar status quo.
Art Of The Deal indeed!
Now, what about those Epstein Files?
It ensures the strait is open to 60 days only, after that it's up to what Iran negotiates locally;
It ends any kind of sanctions the US applies into Iran;
It sets no actual constraint in Iran's uranium enrichment, except for them not making nuclear weapons;
It unfreezes the Iranian international assets (none of which are included in those $300G).
That's a very different situation from the prewar one...
Iran knows as soon as US military left hormuz there's no chance in hell they coming back
It would have been pretty awesome if iran put that into the deal.
Holy shit. They got everything they wanted and USA got zip.
Then trump paid them 300 billion.
WTF?
Oh, and it’s only good for 60 day?
Are we great yet?
We were never great. But we use to be mildly competent.
Trump has trully made America great again: if you compare "right now" to "in the middle of the War with Iran" given that when one stops activelly getting hurt things are "great" by comparison, then America is now Great.
The small detail that it's only "great" in comparison with the peak Find Out moment of Trump's latest Fuck Around is irrelevant.
I'm great, compared to 5 minutes ago when i really needed to pee.
I'm a bit confused about this. Is the US going to be Iran's bitch at the Security Council now?
Such an amazing victory against the american evil empire
…and it’s gone
It's interesting to see oil drop AND the markets drop leading up to this deal.
Oil dropping is expected but it's drop is so much in comparison to the peak. Prices have remained relatively low in comparison to the extreme risk this conflict has created. It's like every country is dumping it's reserves to keep the oil prices low and the markets rising. Only to have the market drop as oil drops.
It's impossible to predict. But with this deal likely to be meaningless and fail to result in any long term peace; and with the absolute scam that the SpaceX stock is right now with 401ks. It feels like the "dump" is starting.
We'll see. This irrational market could last years longer. But, even with half the market just being based on Trump tweets and insider trades, that can only last so long. At some point the spending of public resources to prop up markets and record profits runs dry. And at that point there are only two things to do. Change to a war economy and find someone to invade that you can bully (likely not Iran) while you place economic blame on already oppressed minorities within the US.
Shits gonna get worse before it gets better. We might be there now. Or we might keep up the charade a bit longer.
