Art of the Capitulation – Price of Trump’s surrender is glorious
After 108 days of a 3 week war that Trump has already claimed to have won 17 times, we finally get to the maybe possible signing of something on Friday.
Trump hilariously claims this is a great victory, where as everyone else sees it as the ‘Art of the Capitulation’ because the price of Trump’s surrender is glorious.
After killing thousands, after committing war crimes, after threatening the genocide of a 6000 year civilisation, after Group assassinating the Ayatollahs entire negotiating team, after bombing that Iranian school and killing 170 school kids, after not gaining the nuclear dust, after causing massive inflationary distortions globally, after getting into a public fight with the Pope, after weaponising the Strait, what did we actually gain here?
NOTHING – America and Israel are in worse position than when they started and the Iranians are the actual winners!
The new regime is far more extremist after Trump and Israel killed the new Ayatollah’s dad, wife, brother and son.
Iran gains real leverage to lift all economic sanctions and how Trump, who bitched and bitched and bitched about Obama paying back the $1.8billion America seized during the Iranian revolution, how he is going to explain to his MAGA rednecks that they will have to pay Iran $25billion in frozen cash is going to be the best thing that happens this year.
How bad has Trump screwed up here?
Just consider the social media war.
How bad have you screwed up when a Theocracy (who bashes and kills little girls for not wearing headscarves) beats a Democracy in the propaganda stakes?
How much of an arsehole do you need to be to lose a popularity contest with a medieval Islamic Theocracy?
Trump and Netanyahu gave the Iranian regime the one thing they never had, legitimacy in the eyes of those they oppress.
This has been the single dumbest miscalculation blunder since Vietnam.
If you still think that Trump is some kind of saviour, you are the problem now. Not him.
It is, without doubt, a circus, in as much as no one knows what really will happen here. Smoke and mirrors, at this stage, in my book. The destruction or takeover of Iran, is still, very much the name of the game here.
Martyn Bradbury asks; “…..what did we actually gain here?”
Donald Trump has ‘actually’ damaged American imperialism, that could be counted as a gain.
“Oman will behave just like everybody else or we’ll have to blow them up.” WTF!
The fledgling American empire signed a peace treaty with Oman in 1833 would-you-believe it.
Oman is America’s oldest ally in the Middle East, And Donald Trump threatened to bomb them?
From the Straits Times:
Trump appears to threaten to ‘blow up’ ally Oman
US President Donald Trump said Oman must “behave” or he would “blow them up”.

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump on May 27 appeared to threaten to attack US ally Oman if it sides with Iran over reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
Mr Trump said Oman must “behave” or he would “blow them up,” when he was asked if he would accept a short-term deal to allow Iran and the Gulf state to control the waterway.
“No, the strait is going to be open to everybody,” Mr Trump told reporters during a Cabinet meeting at the White House.
“It’s international waters and Oman will behave just like everybody else, or we’ll have to blow them up. They understand that, they’ll be fine.”
The White House did not immediately respond when asked by AFP if Mr Trump had misspoken and had intended to refer to Iran rather than Oman…..
…..The US State Department later posted a clip and transcript of Mr Trump’s comments about Oman, without any correction or clarification.
Just to make the point that the US president hadn’t ‘mis-spoke’.

Trump’s Oman outburst throws ‘Switzerland of the Middle East’ into the spotlight

…..Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Thursday warned the U.S. would “aggressively” impose sanctions against Oman if it helped Iran to establish a tolling system in the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway that typically handles around 20% of the world’s global oil traffic.
“Oman, in particular, should know that the U.S. Treasury will aggressively target any actors involved – directly or indirectly – in facilitating tolls for the Strait and any willing partners will be penalized,” Bessent said in a post on X.
“All nations should reject outright any efforts by Iran to disrupt the free flow of commerce.”
His comments came less than 24 hours after President Donald Trump appeared to threaten military action against the Gulf partner.

Trump and mates won.
Trump was insider trading on every decision.
The MIC get to rearm and remissile US forces and rebuild US bases.
Trumps US oil mates made $60billion in war profits.

Now can we get back to the two reasons for this war in the first place !
Trump’s involvement and cover up of the Epstein files and Netanyahu’s warmongering government and its intention to wipe out Iran with American money and weapons.
The war rages on as Israel attacks Lebanon. Bibi has no interest in Trumps ending the war.
“Listen there is no deal. Trump just wanted to act like that for his UFC birthday event. One which his son was trying to bet on and asked about rigging, and where people in the crowd started fighting each other.
Trump says the Straight is open and no tolls. that is not true. We are back exactly where were were a week ago. NOTHING they said about this MOU is true.” https://www.ryandawson.org/p/presstv-colleague-hit-by-israel-drone

“Let me remind you of Iran’s original fourteen points that it presented to the US on April 8:
🔸Permanent and immediate cessation of war on all fronts, including Lebanon.
🔸The US’s “commitment to non-interference in Iran’s internal affairs” and respect for its sovereignty.
🔸Lifting of US naval blockade within 30 days.
🔸Withdrawal of US forces from around Iran.
🔸Reopening the strait of Hormuz within 30 days “with Iranian arrangements”.
🔸Suspension of US sanctions on Iranian oil.
🔸US and allies to draw up reconstruction plans for Iran “worth at least $300bn”.
🔸Sixty days of negotiations to reach a final agreement “based on nuclear issues and the complete lifting of” sanctions.
🔸Reiterating Iran’s commitment not to produce nuclear weapons.
🔸During the negotiations, the US will not increase its forces in the region or impose new sanctions.
🔸Release $24bn in blocked Iranian funds.
🔸Establishing a monitoring mechanism to implement the agreement.
🔸Final agreement to be approved by a UN security council resolution.
🔸The final negotiations will not begin before the release of half of Iran’s frozen funds, the suspension of oil sanctions and the lifting of the naval blockade. “Discussions about Iran’s missile programme and support for resistance groups have been definitively removed from the agenda.”
If you think that Trump will sign on to this agreement then you must also believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. Whatever Iran thinks it is signing on to it will be a lie. Stay tuned.”
“Unless the US can put an end to Israeli killings in Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank, there can obviously be no peace in the MIddle East. The US can stop it anytime it wants – by cutting off support for the ZioNazi state, which is just another proxy.” https://julianmacfarlane.substack.com/p/us-losing-russia-winning
The war was a nothing burger distraction for vanity and tv ratings.
Quite correct Paul, now, can we get back to those Epstein files Trump is mentioned in thousands of times? Remember this guy…

Now is the time for the world to step up and put the fucken Israelies back in their box for good .They are the catalist to the situation in the middle east .The rest of their neighbors have found out that they are well and truly needing to get their shit together and stop pandering to the USA and Israel .They should boot the USA OUT and work together in a peaceful manner .
The USA needs to stop arming Israel .
The orange terrorist got his arse kicked big time .He thought he could rampage around the world and get away with it .
What gives him the right to impose sanctions on any country when all those sanctions do is harm women and children who can not do anything in response .
China leads the world by using soft diplomacy with way better results and no blood shed or weapons wasted .
