First time and in a long time that I saw an Onion headline, and didn't halfway believe it immediately.

It's funny but also sad because it looks like the peace deal is already collapsing from both sides: congress doesn't want to pay the IRGC and Israel keeps attacking Iran who just closed the strait again.

There was never a deal. He just needed to announce it for his birthday fight. I don't know why anybody thought this would stick. Iran is enjoying their new power in the World, because they just demonstrated that they can crash the global economy with a phone call. Who TF needs a nuke when you can do that?

If I were Iran, I'd just twist MAGA balls until after the Midterms.

"claims they have never and will never negotiate with the USA"
Your claims are complete nonsense.

Iran closing the straight with seamines and aerial bombardment is an Iran decision.

AFTER Trump and Israel broke the peace. Hence it's just one side.

Israel never stopped doing war in Lebanon, the peacedeal never existed.

You have to keep your allies in check when negotiating, otherwise what's the point.

You suggest the USA should invade Israel? It hasn't exactly worked out well with Iran.

Israel has very clearly demonstrated it will not be deterred by any amount of threats or soft power.

Without the USA backing Israel implicitly I don’t believe Israel would have the balls to continue being the assholes they are.

They act with impunity because the USA has always, even if only begrudgingly, stuck up for them.

Israel demonstrates time and time again it is able to act with impunity because we won’t hold it accountable.

USA is the largest backer for Israel but far from the only, and pulling out all military support could very well lead to much larger loss of life as well as end up giving the eastern bloc nearly uncontested control over the middle east.

I mean, honestly, do we really think Saudi Arabia or Iraq are going to fill that niche?

Ok?

Israel gets away with what it wants because the USA backs it implicitly. Your statement doesn’t change what I said or what I think or refute it in any way.

SkullFucker destroyer of worlds could get control of the Middle East for all I care if the genocide stops.

Can't do worse than the cancer of the world that is the USSA.
They can go to hell with their little genocider maniacs

the losers agreed just now to fuck off from a big part of Lebanon.
Of course, like the USSA their word isn't worth shit so we'll see.
If not Iran should stop this nonsense and teach them a lesson again

And that was also their decision, many weeks after the orange dumbass started attempting peace.

Congress paying Iran was never part of the deal. The deal was to push private companies to invest $300 billion in reconstruction. Now I'm fairly sure that Trump construction consolidated might get paid by congress to rebuild the bridges Trump defence blew up, but it'd just be a hunch

Maybe it's different in autocratic regimes like Iran, Russia, and China, but the US Government cannot "push companies to invest" in anything without giving back at least some guarantee. Regardless, Congress is going to vote the proposition down.

Ate you fucking serious? Look at how Trump had rewarded companies that kiss the ring

Even his router ban or his admin favoring SpaceX contracts isn't worth investing $300Bn in Iran.

The USA companies can't even justify keeping private hospitals running stateside, how tf are they going to pay to build some in Iran? The oil fields aren't getting privatized so ain't no Exxon Mobil going to do it.

Trump has been aggressively rewarding coal and oil and it's still getting pushed out of the market by clean power.

$300,000,000,000.00 is a lot of fucking money.

He's only doing that so he'll actually remember his kid since Barack Obama lives rent free in that dementia-ridden mush he called a brain

A White House spokesperson also dismissed claims the deal was one sided. “That’s not true at all. Iran has made many concessions, including a pinky promise to pause uranium enrichment for thirty days”.

😂

This is a huge victory for the United State of America.

Death of the author moment: this is an abstruse part of the satire and not a typo.

its funny the tough guys who support trump who acts like napolean dynamite. A lot of people are saying I have secret ninja moves. A lot of folks.

Why would Iran want him named after a mass murderer of countless innocent muslims?
