Ceasefire ends tomorrow night. If Trump decides to bomb, the market dives. If he extends, it rockets. Place your bets.

Yes, bets. We'll know his decision about 20min before his social media announcement based on insider trading moves.

The only prediction that is always correct -- Trump will TACO. Probably the bone spurs acting up.

TACO is a good thing. It limits bloodshed. The blockade remains, which will break the camel’s back.

He didn't claim that, and he didn't deny that Israel is a major influence on Trump's decision to go to war. He simply points out what many know and you keep denying -- various Sunni gulf states also want Iran neutered. And they have influence over Trump because they stroke his ego and make him and his family rich, which are the only things Trump really cares about.
How many of those states attacked Iran initially? How many have been pushing US to attack Iran for 30 years?
Remind me. How many billions of $$ per year does the US govt shell out to Saudi Arabia? UAE? How many times have they visited with Trump? How many times have they addressed the Congress?

yes, probably more power. The Gulf nations could threaten to pull all business from trumps and kushners and Witkoffs - that would devastate the royal family. You know trump would do whatever the gulf arabs tell him to do if they hint at his being banned.
Or they can just start to leak all the corruption trump/kushner/witkoff are guilty of.
Our resident Israeli apologisy weighs in with his hasbara.
Today's quiz. What powerful US pol said this:
“If this Capitol crumbled to the ground, the one thing that would remain would be our commitment… our cooperation with Israel.”This post was edited 11 minutes after it was posted.20 -

if a Dem were endlessly making deadlines and endlessly not obeying them you'd be apocalyptic with rage
if a Dem president had gone to war thinking the iranians wouldn't close the Strait you'd be apocalyptic.
you are a trump tool.

Piggie is literally negotiating with himself at this point: Iran didn't ask for a deadline postponement but trump gave them one anyway.

In the meantime, oil is still not flowing through the strait and the cost of jet fuel is soaring.

The US gives next to nothing to Saudi Arabia. The most ever given to them recently was about $5 million to coordinate on anti-terrorism initiatives. Saudi gives far more foreign assistance than it receives.

They purchase billions in weapons from the US. They are not given. Most of the weapons are for defense against Iran and the Houthis.

Likewise, we give very little to Israel. We do act as what amounts to a co-signer on some of their loans (which they have never defaulted on), and the loans are typically for purchasing American made weapons. Both the Saudi and Israeli relationships tend to benefit America.

This is the biggest taco ever.
Rumps big demand for ceasefire is open straits. Not only are the straits not open, but iran has thumbed its nose at us and isnt even attending talks.
So, despite being alone in the talks, us has still lost and rolled over on the ceasifire.
This is ridiculous.
As rigggs said. At this point trump is only negotiating with himself. And losing.

Got it. No matter what Trump does, you are going to Complain about it. At least that is an honest response.

Most people aren't savvy enough to take advantage of opportunities. For some TDS has infected their whole body.

Not to worry. Kushner and Vance are all over this. Peace in no time. Billions to be made. Resorts and golf courses everywhere! Blessed be, Donald T!
