Al Jazeera ? lol ??

I think they've covered the war with more depth than any other source I've seen.

And yes, I know they have an extreme bias against Israel and toward Iran. I know how to filter that stuff out.

What sources do you prefer / trust?

So if you don't trust any source then where do you get your news from and how can you make informed opinions on a topic?

Trump knows he cannot trust the Iranian regime. He knows he will have to blow up their azzes in the near future. You people are delusional if you think otherwise

Oh he knows, but unless Qatar pulls the string for it happen, he won't attack again unless the IRGC goes off and does something completely stupid that cannot be dismissed or ignored. They have used their influence and investments to control Trump Admin 2.0.

I really want to be wrong, but when Iran doesn't do anything to live up to its end of the bargain at the end of 60 days, the clock will be extended for weeks if not months. Just like it was done during the war. Remember the 60 day dead line is not set in stone, it is extendable. They wrote that into the MOU on purpose. To give the admin an out while Qatar tries to figure out how to benefit the most from all of this if Islamic Regime has to go down.

None of those muslim countries are our friends. Not a one. They are all just playing a long con game of being patient and waiting out the west by using deception to eventually infest our institutions and governments.

Trump might beg to differ with you.

Who cares...let them do them and let us do us....return to our side of the globe

Don't call us, we'll call you but don't hold your breath

This is a temporary measure; it's for 60 days — and as a result, we expect them to live up to the commitments they make in Switzerland. If they don't live up to those commitments, the President has a lot of options at his disposal."

This is a New York Times piece written by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan so take it for what it is but the photo of Al-Thani taking over the edits from Vance will have a lot of people questioning whether this is true or not.

I don't know if it's gone that far yet as mentioned in that article, but there is no doubt Qatar is having a huge influence on this conflict. I believe they are ultimately responsible for having the first ceasefire called and then the resultant MOU. Qatar's team was in Iran for 17 hours straight when we were bombing Iranian coastal targets as a token move that they probably okayed, while they tried to strike a deal with the regime.

As soon as the MOU was announced, they departed Tehran to head back home. 2 days later at the G7, their emir is seen all day long sitting next to Trump in media appearances, with Trump singing their praises and talking about their investments into the USA, and their group has their tentacles all over the mediation activities. All of the funds being released back to the Islamic Republic all has to go back to them through Qatar and that is not a coincidence IMO.

Trump Jr, Kushner and Witkoff all have a ton of financial dealings with Qatar and are tied up with them. So does POTUS with his hotel and resort investments in their country. There is no doubt in my mind that they threatened to withhold funding and investment dollars for several projects worth trillions as a way to stop the fighting.

Qatar refines most of Iran's oil as Iran has no refineries. They also have significant deals to build and tie each others electrical infrastructure together. They stand to lose billions of dollars if the regime falls.

They know the west is full of gullible and greedy politicians who can't see past the next dollar sign in their portfolio, and they know how to work that to their advantage. Trump loves deals and the huge investment they are going to make in the USA was put in jeopardy by the conflict, and that is why it was suddenly stopped when the regime was at the 11th hour before it's destruction. They simply used the one tool at their disposal to stop the fighting and told Trump the investment was in jeopardy and here we are.

I wouldn't put it past Kushner to do the things mentioned in the article however, he is a weaselly little shite and shouldn't be within 2000 yards of this administration. If he had not lucked up and married the right girl, he would be just another kid of privilege working in an investment firm somewhere with no political clout.
