Especially when Trump goes from telling Iranian protestors on January 13th that "help is on the way"


Exactly, I am a huge Trump supporter and I didn't want this war, but now that we started this, it needs to finish with this regime dismantled. If he leaves the Iranian people in the lurch under the same oppression, then this will be Trump's biggest failure, and no better than an Obama massive dud deal he had with Iran.

I hope the terms being thrown out are bullshite, but I already have an issue that they are working so hard to make a deal with the Khomeini Regime. Time will tell.

Well, that's settled.

ETA: And it is notable how quickly and definitively that shot that down.

I've said since the night he made that post — publicly promising the Iranian people that we would save them — that it may very well be the dumbest thing he has ever posted on social media. I still stand by that.

We published in the edition | A senior official in Israel estimates this evening: "An attack on Iran is off the table at this stage."

After a long period in which it was said that an attack on Iran was just a matter of time, and after Trump revealed that an attack was supposed to take place in the middle of last week, a clear message has now been received in Israel.

That same official estimates that the World Cup period and the American 250th Independence Day constituted a significant factor in the decision-making, which may change later on.

Don't forget the two week World Cup cooling off period and the three week Labor Day anticipation period.

Trump has been completely neutered on Iran so there is obviously something much deeper going on here either related to munitions, War Powers Act, lack of support from Arab partners, or some combination thereof. If any part of his hesitancy is related to the oil market or stock market reactions, oil is likely to remain in the ~$90 bbl range in the referenced scenario for the foreseeable future so this is doing more harm than good.

Can only assume this is to make the IRGC leadership comfortable enough to do their pot luck watch party of the Iranian games which we can then bomb.

Strait watch ?? 4million barrels of crude went through the strait today BBG: It’s the first time in a week that four million barrels of unsanctioned crude have been seen crossing the waterway, with ships leaving in bunches and then lower volumes passing in subsequent days. So while Tuesday’s number is high, it may be offset by a decline in the coming days. The two tankers were carrying crude from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates respectively.

President Trump @POTUS:
"If Iran surrenders, admits their Navy is gone and resting at the bottom of the sea, and their Air Force is no longer with us, and if their entire Military walks out of Tehran, weapons dropped and hands held high, each shouting “I surrender, I surrender” while wildly waving the representative White Flag, and if their entire remaining Leadership signs all necessary “Documents of Surrender,” and admit their defeat to the great power and force of the magnificent U.S.A., The Failing New York Times, The China Street Journal (WSJ!), Corrupt and now Irrelevant CNN, and all other members of the Fake News Media, will headline that Iran had a Masterful and Brilliant Victory over The United States of America, it wasn’t even close. The Dumacrats and Media have totally lost their way. They have gone absolutely CRAZY!!! President DJT"

Think he actually made that tweet a couple of weeks ago on his Truth social account. Seems like someone modified the time stamp to make it look like it was today
