  • Pakistan's Prime Minister says a peace deal has been reached between the US and Iran

  • "Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon", Shehbaz Sharif says

  • Donald Trump says: "The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all!"

  • Iran is yet to comment; details of what the deal does and doesn't cover are still emerging

  • The war began on 28 February, with US and Israeli strikes across Iran. It prompted Iran to attack Israel and US-allied states in the Gulf and effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil and gas shipping route

I see one of two things happening here:

  1. The deal was agreed upon without Israel's approval, and thus Israel will immediately break the agreement and relaunch the war and Trump will bomb Iran again and prentend its all Iran's fault
  2. Trump and Netanyahu are taking just a moment to regroup, reload, let gas prices go down with "reopening" the Straight of Hormuz, then will relaunch the war at a later date.

The least trustworthy source of information on this is the USA and its colonizer, Israel.

\3) Trump and co are manipulating the markets again

Well that’s just a forgone conclusion as it’s a day that ends in Y

Also Trump isn't saying much about the billions they are paying to an Iran rehabilitation fund to offset the bombing destructiin

*Iran "please end the war my midterm odds are entirely down the shitter oh please god" fund.

Please remember to point out to every MAGAt that:

  1. Iran objectively won this war and is stronger than ever
  2. Trump objectively surrendered and now oil prices will remain elevated for years, if not decades
  3. The inevitable economic crash is tied directly and heavily to this war
  4. Trump is Israel's bitch
  5. This war was entirely unwarranted and illegal
  6. Trump launched this war because he's a pedophile who raped children with Epstein and Israel has the Epstein blackmail on Trump.

and is stronger than ever

Arguing semantics here, but this is a bit of a stretch. Iran has suffered very significant damage. A more accurate assessment would be that it withstood the US's onslaught without having their military or their government broken, and have exposed the US military as being too inept to properly wage war.

The takeaway is similar in the context of the war, but its the US that has fallen rather than Iran having risen, which has much more significant global implications.

Yeah I agree that Iran hasn't become stronger, they actually got weaker as well both due to US strikes and internal unrest. But if the peace deal includes the funding that was previously discussed they may rebuild and end up in a better position overall.

Number 2 is my bet. Gotta keep the ratings up through midterms.

[-] elucubra@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

Number 2? You mean shit?

[-] protist@retrofed.com 5 points 1 month ago

I'm inyeresytonsee whether gas prices will actually go down, the deficit moving through the system right now is tremendous. We may still be in for some shit regardless

[-] HazardousBanjo@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

If CNN's stat guy is anything to go off of, you won't see pre-war gas prices until, optimistically, 2032.

And that's not even considering what Iran will inevitably do with total control over the Straight of Hormuz.

[-] Kirp123@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

If Iran ends up in control of the strait they will just use it to hold the world by the balls. Nobody will want to upset them and go through this whole shit again.

No matter how much they regroup and reload will end up the same way. Missiles and drones are fast to build , interceptors are slow to build
