I guess it's nobody surprise that Trump's dead line of 48 hours has expired and the usual outcome TACO did it again

Would you complain if they bombed while talking? I thought talking was preferable.

You assume Trump is telling the truth.

I wonder if Trump got permission from Bibi for this announcement?

The guys from Chabad down the street said no.

On the basis of his constant lies I think it reasonable to assume he’s lying again.

Not that you care.

Not really. I think hes doing a great job with respect to the POLICIES I support. Thats all that counts

The new 'deadline' ends just after the markets close for the weekend.

What happened? Have you been infused with the spirit of John Lennon ('Give Peace a Chance')? I thought that you were all in favour of bombing Iran into oblivion?

Wonderful. I think that would solve the problem. But Trump wants to talk, he will get a good deal. They have no cards to play except just piss folkss off by tossing random ordnance at civilians

For an adversary with "no cards to play", Iran isn't doing too badly in causing unease in the region and economic instability throughout the world, although I accept the counter argument that Trump can manage to create havoc without any assistance is a very strong one.

since when does Trump tells the truth, why didn't he provide the names of the people he's supposedly speaking/dealing with, juts lies and the perfect timing for such lies as the Dow Jones was opening

there's no productive talking, just the usual BS from Trump, Iranian officials they all denied the "talks"

as we all know TACO always looks for a timing for his announcements, we do know that last night announcement was a doubtful suspicious one. Trump's announcements have a pattern and are always posted close to the opening or closing of the financial markets

President Donald Trump’s recent reversal on his big red line for Iran is prompting some questions on what, exactly, is motivating his wartime decision-making.

But Iran has denied any dialogue with Washington. And while there’s certainly reason to not take officials at their word, the diverging stories — and Trump’s own credibility problems — open the possibility that something else motivated him to back down. That includes possible fears that such a move could escalate the war and global economic pain.

Trump’s critics are calling it Trump’s latest TACO — an acronym for “Trump Always Chickens Out.”

Trump’s suspiciously timed announcements on Iran

https://au.yahoo.com/news/trump-suspiciously-timed-announcements-iran-215038230.html

What Trump and his insiders are doing is making a ton of money.

Insiders were making Polymarket bets and shorting oil right before Trump announced the "postponement."
This Administration is absolutely corrupt to the core. Look for a surge in oil futures the trading day before he beings bombing again.

Corrupt, corrupt, and corrupt.

Iranian Spokeman trolls Lindsey Graham. I can't blame him. Graham on a good day is a danger to himself and everyone around him. He took up John McCain's "Bomb Bomb Iran" gantlet after McCain died.

https://x.com/IRIMFA_SPOX/status/2036124035206074598

Graham is more than happy to send US men and women to die in the Middle East for Trump's play to steal the entirety of Iranian oil and then to control the Straits of Hormuz. Why not, his fat derriere is siting nice a safe in Washington DC. And it has nothing to do with Iranian nukes or imagined threats to the US Homeland. It's 100% about oil and the strategic control of the Persian Gulf with the intent to impose Anti-access/area denial A2/AD to Russia and China - which is going to lead to a world war - which Graham will be nowhere near either.

"Bomb bomb bomb; kill kill kill." He's never seen a war he didn't like. Graham, like McCain, is a real piece of work.

From your desk in St Petersberg, you got your columns mixed up. The Anglophone (Hemingway) saying is "Fifth Column", but a Russian might not know that.

Referring to a Third Column makes no literal sense, comrade. Check the handover notes more carefully next time, when Sergei or Ivan ends his shift.

It may be time now to stop the absurd sanctions against cheap russian oil and bring back russian energy into the global markets before the entire world stock crash and the billionnaires will end up broke.

Graham is inspired by his religion. And his religion doesn't love the Jew.

For members of his belief system, the creation of Israel wasn't some sort of justice arising from the horrors of WW2, but the fulfillment of a prophecy that really drives his co-religionists who believe they are living in the best of times.

This is why he refers to "2000 years". Islam has been around since 610ish, so the 2000 years doesn't refer to some sort of Islamo-Judeo struggle. Its literal End Times stuff. Its nuts.

I know who Lindsey Graham's "god" is? It's the same "god" as Trump's, Cruz, Rubio, Kushner, Witkoff, and all of Trump's associates.

YOUR GOVERNMENT WOULD NEVER LIE TO YOU. TRUMP IS YOUR SAVIOR. OBEY YOUR MASTER. TRUST HIM!

Trump, Graham, and all the others are only driven by two thing: Money & Power

"His constant lies" translates into him repeatedly shredding bizarre lefty false narratives.

If politicians lying was a problem the left would have lambasted Rachel from accounts, Schiff, Mayorkas, Biden and crew. Never happened.

I think it is very sad an entire political movement would rather nukes get flung around than have to praise Trump for fixing democrats problems. Biden and Obama paid Iran billions and they went right on building a nuke program. Trump is the adult in the room here, fixing the problem those 2 left him.

Well ya know what I meant didnt you.

By the way, the term is National Socialist derived. Socialist; LOL.
