…we told you he was going to have to surrender because this entire illegal war fiasco with Iran, (driven by Netanyahu and agreed upon because Trump was so desperate to get the Epstein Files off the news agenda), was always going to result in him backing down.
It was always an ill judged and morainic military adventure that’s ended in a result where America and Israel are both WEAKER than when they went into it!
Netanyahu has been trying to convince the world Iran was mere moments away from a. nuclear bomb since the early 90s and no one was dumb enough to get conned in to attacking Iran because every single time the CIA Geeks and Military Goons war rammed it out, it always ended in a lose, lose, lose quagmire.
4 Decades no one was dumb enough to go along with this until Donald Trump whose desperation to get the Epstein Files off the news agenda alongside his miscalculation that he was dealing with a regime like Venezuela combined to launch an illegal war that Trump ends up losing.
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 plus a $300billion reconstruction budget is going to be the best thing that happens this year.
There are of course Winners and Losers:
WINNERS:
Iran:The Iranian regime is the biggest winner here.
How bad has Trump screwed up?
Just consider the social media war.
How bad have you cocked 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?
By removing the economic sanctions, by unfreezing their assets and gaining a $300billion reconstruction budget, the Iranian people will see a marked contrast in economic activity and lifting of living standards thanks to the regime they hated.
Trump and Netanyahu have given the Iranian regime the thing. they have most cherished since the revolution, legitimacy in the eyes of those they Oppress!
LOSERS:
America – They are now in a weaker position than when they went in! This has ben the biggest geopolitical blunder since Vietnam.
Israel – Not only have they become a pirayha state led by a wanted War Criminal, they are now being beaten up by Trump whose desperation to stop oil prices exploding means he’ll throw Israel under. bus in a. millisecond. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

couldn’t have happened to a nicer group of people.
Trump – Trump and Netanyahu gave the Iranian regime the one thing they never had, legitimacy in the eyes of those they oppress, and Trump did it all in a desperate attempt to hide the Epstein Files. He is now a loser and his surrender to Iran is political suicide. If you still think that Trump is some kind of saviour, you are the problem now. Not him.
Netanyahu – Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

couldn’t have happened to a nicer war criminal.
Iranians wanting freedom – They are the saddest losers here, the Theocracy is more powerful now than ever before.
MAGA – ‘No more wars, no more wars, no more wars – oh we are at war’. Even for MAGA rednecks, Trump’s fuck up is unforgivable. His idiocy may in fact be so damaging it trumps their own prejudice.
Global Economics – We are all paying the price of this stupid misadventure and the global economy will not get back to any semblance of normal until the end of the hearth when the Super El Niño weather event will be stomping on whatever economic growth remains.
PREDICTIONS:
Now the Iranians have the Strait that they can weaponise at any time..
US intel assesses Iran can shut down the Strait of Hormuz at will from now on
US intelligence agencies have recently assessed that Iran can effectively shut down access to the Strait of Hormuz at will from now on, meaning the country’s regime has acquired a powerful new ability to hurt the global economy as a result of the war, according to three sources familiar with the findings.
One of the main reasons Iran believes it can continue to weaponize the strait is it still retains a significant portion of its weapons stockpile, including missiles, drones, missile launchers, and hundreds of small fast boats that continue to harass shippers attempting to transit the waterway and can be used to lay mines. Iran has also been rebuilding its military industrial base faster than the US anticipated and has already begun new drone production, CNN has reported.
…(they also now have an economic apocalyptic option of having the Houthi close the other Strait)…
And even as the two sides appear to have signed an agreement that would reopen the strait and end the current conflict, multiple sources said Iran has been plotting an economic “nuclear option” if negotiations with the US fall apart: getting the Houthis, the Iranians’ chief proxy force in Yemen, to close the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean — another global trade chokepoint that has served as a shipping lifeline amid Iran’s months-long closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
…with such powerful weapons, they literally don’t need a nuke and will happily hand over what they have, because they don’t need it anymore now they have the Straits!
Iran only ever wanted a nuke to protect them from America and Israel, now they have the Straits they don’t need to spend all that money on nuclear weapons!
Trump’s own base (when they realise how much Trump has been forced to sign away) will go mental
When the Zionists realise how much Trump has given away, they will go mental.
When the Republican Hawks realise how much Trump has given away, they will go mental.
MAGA, Zionists and Republican Hawks all going mental is going to cause Trump an enormous amount of political headaches.
To date the assassination attempts on Trump have been carried out by clowns, with the people he’s enraging now, I suspect the quality of killers will jump remarkably now he has crossed the people he has.
The moment Trump betrays the Iranians again, they will just shut the Strait.
He has fucked up magnificently and I’m all here for it!

“Iranians wanting freedom – They are the saddest losers here, the Theocracy is more powerful now than ever before. Martyn Bradbury.
The Iranian people’s movement for freedom from the suffocating theocratic and oppressive rule of the Ayatollahs has been sidelined by this war.
Under a war time state of emergency, imposed by the Iranian regime, all popular protests were crushed. The Mullahs justified the crackdown by conflating pro-democracy protesters as agents of the US and Israel.
The pro-democracy movement was not helped by the Iranian supporters of the former pro-US, pro-Zionist dictator, the Shah of Iran Reza Pahlavi, and his heir.
Confirming the Ayatollahs propaganda, the pro-US, pro-Israeli Royalists, who openly alligned themselves to the US and Israel, the same people dropping bombs on the Iranian people, claimed to be the sole legitimate opposition, setting back the genuine movement for democracy back years if not decades.

If the americans are going to invest $300 billion of their tax payers money in a rebuild will that money go to US corporations gaining entry to Iran to do the rebuild?
I don’t think the 300 bln is coming from the US taxpayers. It’s regional contributions.
The despicable Israeli administration are going to do everything they can to stop this. They let hundreds of Israelis die on Oct 7 to start their destruction of Gaza so don’t be surprised how low they will go. Hezbollah only exist because those entitled Israeli wankers invaded Lebanon in the 80’s.
Prediction: the USA will fail to honour most/all of the provisions in this MOU. As the Russians have frequently observed, the USA is agreement incapable, and so they will ignore the MOU as soon as their agenda allows, or when the pressure on Trump from the Israel lobby in the USA becomes too much for him to withstand, or when Netanyahu deliberately bombs Beirut in order to draw Iran back into the fray. I sure wouldn’t bet my non-existent fortune on the US honouring this agreement.
I think what most people don’t seem to grasp, is that a MOU is NOT a “deal”, let alone a treaty. A treaty with the US would need to be ratified by congress, and as congress is 97% funded by AIPAC, the likelihood of any agreements with Iran being ratified… probably non existent. So another frozen conflict that can be started up anytime the neocons want.
So yes, your prediction is probably accurate.
Let’s go full electric and fuck The Strait and trump and all those other feeble little and old men.
Check this out. Something to be aware of. ‘ Who killed the electric car’.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_Killed_the_Electric_Car%3F
I get this unsettling feeling that the global super-duper states and their hangers on are about to fly to pieces so I think we should try our best to plan ahead. Like fuck the Makarewa data centre and instead build light electric rail for you spendy-spendy urbanites and heavier stuff for those of us in out in the country who create our wealth. And… rather than the gooberment wank on about their feeble little plans and public asset acquisitions we subsidise rural-town rebuilds which would be inter connected by electric rail and get people to farming. And Pot growing, and poppy growing and lets chuck in a few Coca plants while we’re at it. Pep up the aged for a days bowls tournaments. ( You think I’m joking…)
What we in the West have got is fuck all. We’re bland and sickly. We’re plastic coated disco biscuits without the funk. In short, and I’m not that short but we’ve become less ourselves and far more like their preferred minions. Whiny, whingy, weak little clawless kittens who crawl up to the rich. We’ve become whipped dogs begging for praise while planning selfish greed.
Fuck trump. Who cares. Fuck the Iranians too. They’re all nautical miles away and we should make sure they stay there. We, are awesome and we’re unbelievably lucky but we’re also hugely vulnerable to being wiped out.
Years ago I wrote here that one day, if we’re not careful, those few survivors of us will be found hiding behind Mount Anglem as IDF psychopaths take pot shots at us off Bluff Hill. The most terrifying thing I find about myself is that I’m always right.
Solutions: Make people above the age of sixteen vote. Whether we like it or not we must vote because this fascist neoliberal greed based mono-*politic is a disaster. * Which isn’t a politic at all. It’s a gangster clan of the terminally narcisstic greedy. If you have doubts then check out this sociopathic narcissist and read what he says about us. Nick Mowbray is a real charmer.
2 Words. Debt Jubilee.
Bring back the over 3000-year-old tradition of when a new ruler was installed in the Middle east a debt jubilee was announced. The indebted surfs slaving in the fields had their debts forgiven who only got paid at harvest to the Moneyed class (Landlords and bankers) who got rich not by their work but from the sweat of laborers. Every 50 years the system was reset.
The Egyptians and Persians understood that by doing this it prevented wealth being concentrated in the hands of the few. China understands this by all land being owned by the state allowing them to turbocharge their economy and provide cheaper housing. That was the whole point of Catholicism and Judaism changing the system to allow Usury. Now corporations are using profit for shares buybacks inflating their stock price so the moneyed class can collect their bonuses. The whole system is corrupt and due for a catastrophic collapse.
Tax capital gains immediately as unearned income generated through a corrupt system, it is the masters that reap the benefits of public infrastructure with the tax burden being shifted to the downtrodden taxpayers. The moneyed class earns their profits not from physical labor, look at Elon Musk the worlds first trillionaire and his Ponzi scheme based on the backs of taxpayer money.
Michel Hudson
“Every economy has land rent, because some sites are more valuable than others. Some houses and stores are always going to be more valuable because they are on the sunny side of the street, or near public transportation. These are public improvements. Transportation creates location value, and the rent of location is the most important thing”.
“The question is: are you going to let private landlords own this location value, or is the government going to collect the value that landlords did not create themselves? They make it in their sleep. When London extended the Jubilee Line, real estate prices increased all along the route. The increase in real estate values was higher than the cost of digging and building the line itself. The government could have recaptured the location value that it had created, and would not have had to tax the population for it. Instead, it taxed the population”.
In all probability the Iranians will be back in 60 days time asking for more concessions and Trump is back to trying to shut down his role in the Epstein pedophile ring. What a win for the planet’s winningist man. Pity the poor genocidal zionist nutjobs. They really are screwed. What a shambles.
The orange terrorist has been educated .He surely must now know he is just another person in the big scheme of the world and is no body special .
