More Iranian propaganda

This won't work because as soon as the blockade was lifted, this allowed ships to start docking at Iranian ports. Sanctions or not, they will still be making more than enough money from their allies to keep buying weapons and support material. This is why I don't understand why Trump decided to lift it immediately instead of keeping it in place until a surrender deal was signed.

In President Trump's defense, he never said who would be surrendering to whom.

The Europeans also lifted all their sanctions this morning.

My belief is that IF this is more stalling the blockade would not be lifted. Just more BS to keep Iran from attacking anything with missiles and drones and let the clock keep ticking.

1. I have no idea what the hell Trump is thinking. Does he or does he not really want this deal???? If he does he is a moron.
2. I don't think this deal will go through and be the last thing. At best, and I doubt that strongly, at best it is kicking the can down the road.
3. My hope is that this is more stalling simply to have all sides stop shooting while Iran slowly starves do to the sanctions that will result in Internal failure and regime change. Granted this "hope" is just a hope.
I echo these thoughts... I have no idea what is really going on but there seems to be a great deal of misinformation floating around which makes it difficult to really know whats going on... The Trump Admin would do themselves a favor by more effectively communicating what their overall position/goals are....

The Euro-Trash leaders couldn't wait to start funneling money back into the pockets of their favorite terrorists. The IRGC guys buy lots of shite from them on the black market. Their advocacy groups also funnel a lot of money into the pockets of European politicians.

Smoke and mirrors, but it seems like Trump wanted markets to open and oil to flow. Something in the background, be it bonds or the economy caused him to pivot, but don’t know the real story, just that the Iranians played this perfectly, at this point

Maybe so. But if you are the Trump Administration and you want people to stop believing Iranian propaganda about the MOU, then release the MOU.

THE EXACT DETAILS OF THE DEAL ARE NOT PUBLIC YET!
As per FoxNews right now.
Maybe wait until we know the details before pissing on the deal?

Yeah, we know. That's the problem.
But the Israelis say that it's a terrible deal. And the Pakis, who mediated the deal, say this about it:

Pakistan has published what it claims are the key terms of the U.S.-Iran agreement:
?? U.S. sanctions on Iran would be lifted.
?? Frozen Iranian funds would be partially released.
?? A ceasefire would take effect across all fronts, alongside an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon.
?? Iran’s uranium stockpile and nuclear facilities would remain inside Iran.
?? A $300 billion compensation fund would be established for Iran.
?? The U.S. embargo on Iran would be removed.
?? Iran would assume responsibility for managing the Strait of Hormuz and collecting transit fees.
The terms are unconfirmed by Washington or Tehran.
So, yeah, it would take about 15 seconds for the Trump administration to publish the MOU that we agreed to, the "deal" that is final and will be signed on Friday.
Apparently, though, as Nancy once said, "We have to pass it so you can see what's in it."

Did you just start reading this thread? We've had folks believing, or claiming to believe, Iranian propaganda from the start. They want to believe Iranian propaganda. If the administration releases the current terms (which still aren't signed AFAIK), and some Iranian official or propaganda site says it's inaccurate, those same folks will side with the Iranian propaganda. Sorry, but the leftists have overplayed their hand for too long; everyone understands the game now.

So Iran gets all that and US gets Iran won’t try to get a nuke which the previous Ayatollah’s stance. What a blunder to start this war. And Iran controlling the Strait of more valuable than having a nuke if they than have this much leverage.

The ceasefire extension solved one problem: it bought both sides 60 days.
President Trump continues to insist that the Islamic Republic's nuclear program must be addressed. The Islamic Republic faces growing pressure from hardliners who oppose major concessions.
That is why talk of a "final peace deal" is premature.
The next 60 days will determine whether this leads to a genuine agreement, another breakdown in talks, or a new round of escalation.

.@JDVance explained some details of the deal to CBS.
Many people are misrepresenting it maliciously, so let's clear some things up.
NO the US will not pay Iran $300B
IF Iran gives up all its nuke stuff then a fund for investment & reconstruction w/ Gulf & other $$$ is proposed.
NO there is no agreement to unfreeze $24B now or at any point.
IF Iran honors its commitments it will get sanctions relief.
YES the US will be directly involved in verifying the nuclear material and program are destroyed.
We may not be the ones who do the destruction but we will witness it and be part of inspections to ensure it is not reconstituted.
There is no reason for all the caterwauling about reconstruction in Iran. Any deal was going to involve that and any money going in will be monitores. Of course the regime will steal some and we will be watching to ensure it doesn't get used for malign purposes.
It's sad to watch so many people actively hoping this deal won't work and lying about what it comprises.
As described this deal is a major victory for the US, the region and the world. If they follow through it could also be a return of Iran to the community of nations.
If the regime doesn't abide by the deal they have made. Their days are certainly numbered.
But this offers a real chance to secure the region and aim it toward prosperity.
