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:
The least trustworthy source of information on this is the USA and its colonizer, Israel.
Number 2 is my bet. Gotta keep the ratings up through midterms.
Number 2? You mean shit?
\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
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
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.
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.
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:
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.
Bibi already attacked Beirut
That was before the agreements
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
There might be blowback over details, but now the country has the attention span of a flea thanks (in my opinion) to social media. We could be paying Iran a trillion dollars of printed money, and it wouldn’t matter.
Does anyone remember Venezuela?
…Or January 6? Epstein? 1000 other controversies.
Nope. Not even a flicker in the public eye.
Flood the zone. Move fast, break things.
This is unambiguously good news. Trump had gotten himself into a tight spot and other president’s in that situation have almost always chosen escalation. A ground war in Iran would almost certainly mean tens, or hundreds of thousands killed, plus multiples of that displaced, injured, and traumatized.
This is unambiguously good even if it’s good for Trump, the stock market, and Republicans; it’s more important than the midterms.
Invasion this week? Got it
“Art of the Deal”
I'll file this under the "I'll believe it when I see it column".
At any rate, I absolutely do not expect oil and gas prices to go down at all, considering a lot of infrastructure has been destroyed and isn't going to simply be wished back.
I’m optimistic this will stick. Quiet control/tolls over SoH. Sanctions/funds relief. US leaves. 60 days talks likely to extend past mid terms, with Trump declaring victory the whole time for stopping nuclear program, before finalization. GCC likely to line up investments in Iran.
Israel can likely be contained. American assets will be forced to say how great Trump’s victory is. Israel has limited supply of US missiles, and needs cooperation from air refueling services to bring planes to Iran.
Press X to doubt, pretty sure Israel won’t commit to this, they’re having fun colonising lebanon.
Just before Monday wow.
Trump says it’s a peace deal
Iran says it’s just a memorandum of understanding and they will have 60 days to negotiate the deal
Trump says they will sign it in the next 24h and the strait will be opened immediately
Iran says it will be signed Friday
Trump says there will be no tolls
Iran says they will control the passage
Iran and USA say the deal includes Lebanon
Israel is not commenting on it and bombs Beirut instead
Clusterfuck is the word.
How much does a US President have to fuck up, for the world to trust the word of Iran more then that of the US President.
I mean. Djeezus…
