Tit for tat, Trump fucks up again...
TACO Trump, versus the Persians - who, like the Russians, do not pfuk around.

Anyone who JUST ASKED A MILITARY HISTORIAN, could have told the senile idiot that, right off.

Nope, he's got to learn it the hard way.

With all this, now...I have to wonder how much of the good that came out of Trump's first three years, was ALSO due to his advisors and Cabinet?

Maybe I had it backwards. Trump isn't so much getting bad advice now, as he was getting GOOD advice, and being kept on a short leash, eight years ago.

I have no feud with the Persians. I actually feel sorry that their country was overcome with the mental disease of the Islam cult. If the people could dispel that disease, then we can work together in peace and with profit for all.

But the question to answer is how to get rid of the Islamic cancer?
 
They have to do it themselves.

Nation-Building, the kind the US Skate Department so loves...is batting .000 so far. Is this time different? Is it not insanity, to do the same thing over and over, and expect something different?
 
Eliminate the zionist one and the other will disappear...
 
We NEVER honored it either...
They (Iran) said we violated by saying something.

That sounds a lot like the woke left BS about un-regulated speech being the same as violence.



Iran violated it by shooting actual missiles.


They knew at the time they signed it that it meant no nukes, no enrichment of uranium, and no f'ing around with shipping in the Strait.

They clearly weren't interested in any of that.
 

If this is the agreement?

Zelensky loses everything.

So does NATO.

Both rug pulled.

Zelensky literally has no cards left to play.

NATO is at the complete mercy of Scott Bessent and the Treasury.
We’ve tracked the dollars and know about all the corruption.
Not just in Ukraine, but in Europe.

Bessent and Trump know all about the properties Zelensky and his cronies own in Europe.
They know all about their secret offshore bank accounts and shell companies.
Same with Zelensky’s allies in Europe.

I think the ultimatum has been delivered to both Zelensky and NATO.

This war is likely about to come to a dramatic end.
 
Did they truly claim that?

One method of propaganda, is to build a strawman out of quotes or statements, taken out of context - and then demolish, not the enemy, not his statements, not his accomplishments, but your own mis-characterizations.

Skepticism runs both ways.

How can we be sure, first, that's not AI or doctored, and second, since we can't see the target, that it wasn't a missile fired on something else, or even a test?
 
Truth is the first casualty of this conflict. So much BS being thrown around HERE and the entire internet.
 
Martin Armstrong touches on Trump's connection to Peepee Nuttin' Yahoo.


Cyclically, Netanyahu has made a huge mistake. He got Trump to attack Iran in 2025 and assassinated several of their military leaders. This was the end of the 72-year Revolutionary Cycle on Iran so he just began a whole new cycle and that demonstrated that this would NOT end in one day killing the Ayatolla as he told Trump.

While Jared Kushner, the Jewish son-in-law of President Trump and real estate developer, along with Benjamin Netanyahu have known each other for years, I believe that is how Trump was persuaded to let Netanyahu into the Situation Room to sell his war. Trump trusts Kushner way too much.

The connection between Benjamin Netanyahu and the Kushner family is a long-standing, multi-generational relationship that blends deep personal friendship, significant political alignment, and substantial financial ties. The foundation of their connection is a personal friendship that predates Netanyahu’s political career and Jared Kushner’s role as a White House advisor.

The relationship goes back to the 1980s, when Netanyahu was an Israeli diplomat in New York. He was a frequent overnight guest in the home of Charles

Kushner, Jared’s father, in Livingston, New Jersey. On these visits, he would often sleep in Jared’s bedroom, with Jared moving to the basement. Charles Kushner, was a wealthy real estate developer and major donor to Jewish and pro-Israel causes, has been a significant financial backer of Netanyahu’s political career. This support reportedly included donations to the Israeli Likud party and was a factor in legal disputes within the Kushner family.

The personal friendship has translated directly into a strong political alliance, particularly during Jared Kushner’s tenure as a senior advisor to President Donald Trump. That is what I believe the Democrats will have a field-day with after the Mid-Terms.

Kushner’s connection to Netanyahu is indeed inherited through his father, Charles Kushner, who was a longtime donor to Israeli causes. President Trump pardoned Charles Kushner after he was sentenced to prison for fraud-related crimes. In 2005, he was convicted and sentenced to two years in federal prison for 18 federal charges connected to his real estate business and political activities


Much moar at linky. Armstrong is all over the board with this one; to get to the Trumpy-Nuttinyahoo link, you need go halfway down.
 
And I'm supposed to take Martin Armstrong word in all this....LOL
Use it as a starting point.

Who IS Jared? Why did his father ask for, and get, a pardon?

Is there another explanation for all of this?

DOES this brain-dead war not have Nuttin Yahoo's fingerprints all over it? It's part of his campaign to use his sponsor power to destroy all his enemies - perceived or actual.

Do you want your kids to be part of this power-pawn exercise?
 
I don't want the islama-fuckation of the USA, I can tell you that much. The progressive liberals are pushing the islama-fuckation of the USA hard. Is that what you want?

For instance ...

You ready to start working for Secession?

Yeah, me, neither. Secession is the only way out, but organizing it now, in the age of Motherflocking cameras and cell-phone tapping, is gonna be well-nigh impossible.

Someone with moar personality and a better sense of strategy is gonna have to do it - or not; in which case, the crash is inevitable and the impact, lethal to most of us.
 
Israel has made it clear they will not honor any peace deal, so Trump is nutless again...should have stayed home.
