Trump just pumping markets, he’s actually been quite good at it, you knew he was going to pump them right before Space X. Every time he says he’s going to end them, he finds an extension, and market pumps. Do I believe he has an agreement….. lol….Would love to be wrong, but not falling for Iran coming to the table, lol.

The only path to getting what we want from Iran is by razing every city and piece of civil infrastructure.

This whole thing sounds like a deal to reduce oil prices by the midterms, and we'll see what Trump's real Iran policy is after that. The problem is Iran will have full coffers by then from oil revenue, and we will have very little credibility.

The tell on this was that the stock market’s performance today was the first thing he mentioned in his Oval Office remarks this afternoon. He said “the stock market is up 1,000 points and oil is down. The market loves this deal.”

Including this that makes 39 times since April one that Trump has said in the media that the deal is done and will be signed in the next couple days

And people fall for it every time

If this is accurate then we better hold on because I have a feeling the heat is going to come down somewhere soon.

Im not believing on a done deal until Tehran confirms It. But Imagine being an American and waiting on a foreign country instead of the US to confirm that a deal is official.

Barak Ravid on what's in the deal- we get the same "downblending" or dilution of the uranium dust that Iran was offering before the war.

quote:

Breaking it down: Under the MOU, Iran would make certain commitments on its nuclear program — first and foremost to never acquire a nuclear weapon and to resolve the standoff around its enriched uranium. A senior U.S. official said Trump agreed that one of the options for resolving the issue could be down-blending Iran's highly enriched uranium inside the country under the supervision of UN inspectors. Any steps on Iran's nuclear program would only take place if a second deal is reached — an uncertain prospect given how difficult the far less technical negotiations over the MOU have been. The diplomat claimed the MOU "goes into details on all the nuclear issues" and "satisfies all U.S. requirements." Zoom in: The MOU calls for the strait to be reopened immediately without tolls, with a return to pre-war shipping volumes within 30 days. In return, the U.S. blockade would also be lifted. U.S. officials previously told Axios that after reopening the strait, Iran would be given temporary sanctions waivers to allow it to sell oil for 60 days. That would generate precious revenue for Tehran. The sanctions relief would increase if Iran complies with the initial agreement and shows "good faith" in subsequent negotiations. "There is no set date for sanctions relief and it will be tied to the implementation of the deal," the diplomat said. The intrigue: It's unclear whether the text includes any detailed explanation of what will happen with the billions of Iranian dollars frozen overseas. Iran has insisted that it must receive some money immediately upon signing any initial deal, while the U.S. has said it would be released in tranches based on compliance. A U.S. source outside the administration expressed concern that the issue of the frozen funds may be addressed in a secret side agreement. A U.S. official recently denied that possibility to Axios. The U.S., Iran and Qatar in recent days discussed a mechanism by which Iran would gain access to some of its frozen funds in Qatar for purchasing humanitarian goods, according to a U.S. official and a source from one of the mediating countries.
