Ed Israel/US Attacks Iran /Yet Another Country/Iran

I would say everything is different.

Before, Israel was panicking that the US was negotiating directly with the US.
Now, the US is desperate to negotiate.

Before, Israel and the US could use the fake threat of nukes to wage a war they wanted.
Now, the very real threat of blocking the Strait gives Iran the equivalent of a Nuclear Deterrent.

Iran has already shifted to selling oil (and safe passage) in Yuan. There is now a crack in the Dollar-Oil economy.

And Gulf Nations have learned painfully that the US can't protect them and Israel doesn't care if they get hurt - the Abraham Accords are defacto dead.

So typical TACO. Threatens overwhelming violence against some one/country and when they tell him to ◊◊◊◊ off, pretends that they have agreed to his terms and then resumes the “in two weeks” threats.
He operates as though threats of obliterating a country with bombing or introducing 100% tariffs are the same thing.

And no one in the US is doing anything to stop him.
I’m in a quandary, because I don’t believe political assassinations are a valid, moral solution. (ATM)

Kind of like how the DHS will be of two minds about what to do with you if they read your post.
 
Israeli air strikes hit southern Lebanon

The Israeli military has carried out a wave of air strikes in southern Lebanon this morning - an indication that, for Israel, the US-Iran ceasefire deal does not apply to Lebanon.

This morning, air strikes hit the Tyre and Nabatieh areas in the south of the country, after the agreement was announced.

The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has denied that the deal also covers the conflict with the Iranian-backed Lebanese armed group Hezbollah here.

Iran warns it will respond if Israeli attacks on Lebanon don't stop immediately

Israel and the US say Lebanon is not included in a two-week ceasefire deal with Iran. PM Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel struck "the greatest blow" to Hezbollah in strikes today.

This is a victory for the United States that President Trump and our incredible military made happen.

From the very beginning of Operation Epic Fury, President Trump estimated this would be a 4-6 week operation.

Thanks to the unbelievable capabilities of our warriors, we have achieved and exceeded our core military objectives in 38 days.

More on that tomorrow morning from @SecWar and Chairman Caine!

The success of our military created maximum leverage, allowing President Trump and the team to engage in tough negotiations that have now created an opening for a diplomatic solution and long-term peace.

Additionally, President Trump got the Strait of Hormuz reopened.

Never underestimate President Trump’s ability to successfully advance America’s interests and broker peace

More exactly, the US-Iran ceasefire deal doesn't apply to Israel, and pretending otherwise shows support for the ultimate destruction of Israel …
 
Donald's reaction to posting an Iranian statement from the Supreme National Security Council saying they won a "Great Victory"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonald Trump
The alleged Statement put out by CNN World News is a FRAUD, as CNN well knows. The false Statement was linked to a Fake News site (from Nigeria) and, of course, immediately picked up by CNN, and blared out as a "legitimate" headline. The Official Statement by Iran was just released, and posted on TRUTH, below. Authorities are looking to determine whether or not a crime was committed on the issuance of the Fake CNN World Statement, or was it a sick rogue player? CNN is being ordered to immediately withdraw this Statement with full apologies for their, as usual, terrible "reporting."
Results of the investigation will be announced in the near future. President DONALD J. TRUMP

A big day for World Peace! Iran wants it to happen, they've had enough! Likewise, so has everyone else! The United States of America will be helping with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be lots of positive action! Big money will be made. Iran can start the reconstruction process. We'll be loading up with supplies of all kinds, and just "hangin' around" in order to make sure that everything goes well. I feel confident that it will. Just like we are experiencing in the U.S., this could be the Golden Age of the Middle East!!! President

DONALD J. TRUMP

This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls:“We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture. It’s a way of securing it — also securing it from lots of other people.”“It’s a beautiful thing”

Aww. Isn't that nice? Yesterday he was threatening genocide, and today he wants them to set up a protection racket together.

Looks like someone didn't get the memo about the ceasefire ...

Mysterious.

I wonder if Trump can have a word and do anything about that. Or persuade them the ceasefire includes Lebanon.
Seriously, if not, the whole thing could unravel faster than it began.
