America can’t and won’t accept Iran is in the box seat. Which won’t change until it hurts the Epstein Class hip pockets . I for one will deal with it till Iran wins .

If Iran gets the terms of the 10 point plan, it has won

Thanks Nate!

"And as most of our governments are middle manager technocrats who look to the markets for divine guidance, the lack of market reaction is feeding into the lack of political reaction."

The market is like a casino: the house always wins. The "house" in this case is uniformly Zionist. Only a small percentage of people own most of the stocks. Finance is dominated by an even smaller group. This small group controls the markers in the US and it is nearly all Zionist. These Israeli firsters can and do act collectively when something sacred to them all is at stake: Israel and it's insane push for lebensraum. They have been using every trick in the book over the last month to prevent any natural market reaction to the closed strait. They collectively struggle to ensure Trump can continue his assault on the innocent people of Iran as long as possible. Yes they are all greedy capitalist pigs, but they are also members of a cult. Eventually, as you said, gravity will have to kick in and it will be every Capitalist pig for himself, once again. Once that happens, we can celebrate Iran's victory for humanity.

In terms of the western wage slaves that will wrongly suffer due to the crimes of their Zio billionaire overlords, I can only speak for myself. Im happy to endure it so long as it reduces the ability of the Zio Imperialist ruling class of the West to continue killing innocent wage slaves in Iran, Palestine and across the ME.

Death to Zio Imperialism!

"...a re-escalation against Iran will be bad for everyone, including the Americans. Which is why I don’t think they will return to war.".

Jeffrey Epstein has entered the chat. If burning down the globe is what it will take for Netanyahu to delay his corruption trial, then that's what he'll do

We shall see. I know I'm against the grain on this

The timing of Melania's little excursion "I had nothing to do with Epstein, just in case anyone asks!" is most suspicious.

Nate Bear's avatar

It was. Wondering if that's more to do with Trump's declining physical health and her wanting to get out ahead of it when he dies and it all comes out

Feral Finster's avatar

I don't think Trump is going to tip over at any moment now, and besides, La Melania could always play stupid after the old sociopath croaks.

Yeah. The only thing left to discuss are the terms of the U.S./Israel divorce. No fault, or clothes burning in the street?

We’ll see.

My semi-informed view says the the US pressed for the ceasefire because the non nuclear weapon stocks are low, low, low. One more round of carpet bombing across the breadth of Iran was potentially the last hurrah. American forces have never really possessed air defense. Where could they safely base a boots on the ground force? The Blasphemer in Chief has never had to deal with logistics. So logistics dealt with him. It's too bad the planet's population is the proxy for handling the logistic's backlash on his behalf.

The unseen gem in this for the wing-nut media viewers is the coming shortages of medications, both prescribed and over the counter. Most Americans are stuffed with so many meds that their bodies are literally toxic waste dumps. Withdrawal is going to be painful.

For us lucky duckies residing in neoliberal hellholes there is none of this we're all in this together. Nope. We losers in the ongoing class war (no truce here) take the pain, our billionaires still eek out their gains.

May the day come where these billionaire cretins have a choice between two G's: Guantanamo or the guillotine.

I believe u you got this.

Only unknown is irrational behavior of losing Zio-Nazi Epstein class cult members?

They're realizing Israels existence is matter of time, and I'm not sure they know how to cope with that?

It's all theatre w/the US. They'll say peace but will continue arming Ukraine & Israel & resort to terrorists attacks like they doing to the Russians & Lebanon & Gaza. They actually don't care about "the little people". Why do you think depopulation is on their agenda? And they have the loons on hired contract just to do it. The US was bound to get a rebound for all the evil we've done since WWII. It's due. But I attribute the little hats for brainwashing us into sheeple. I'll choose my own way out if it gets that bad. But till the end I will champion the Resistance in Iran, Palestine, and Lebabon.

Yeah but what if a global depression is just fine with them? What then? All the better for buying stuff up on the cheap and benefitting from the chaos.

Thank you. Interesting analysis, I hope you are right about the ceasefire turning to peace in the gulf region. Considering China is the country that the US is really trying to take down, do you think they've decided to pivot directly towards that goal, essentially bypassing taking out Iran? Obviously the war with Russia is still ongoing so they aren't giving up there.
