    This is the dumbest war ever, from the president of peace. Peace of shit is more like it.

    The Obama deal was supposed to have “given” Iran ~$2B, but that was actually a settlement of claims made by Iran pursuant to pre-revolutionary contracts, disputes, and treaties.

    So I’m suspicious of this $300B figure. How much of that is sanctions relief and/or unfreezing Iranian assets?

    It’s probably misleading to characterize that figure as though we’re writing them a check for war reparations. But there aren’t enough details to be sure.

    Anyway, I don’t think it’s wise to adopt the language and tactics of people who think diplomacy is a waste of time and would prefer a military solution.

    So… Israel? I’m not sure the US actually has any other allies anymore

    How is this a good deal? Like what? We pay them money, get nothing and in 30 years they will be at it again with the nuclear weapons?

      Your shitty country started a war of agression so you have to pay for it. It is a decent deal. Iran deserve a bigger compensations. The sanctions damage is estimated to be a trillion of dollars.

      Why are you keep believing the idea that Iran will seek nukes which was the exact bullshit excuse that started the war

      It’s a good deal for world for reopening SoH. No other alternative for opening it. US/GCC would have incurred too much permanent damage. While Trump is only president stupid/compromised enough to have fallen for Netanyahu bait to start, he’s also only one with reality distortion power to call a stop, victory.

      World/Americans being liberated from USrael empire is closer today. There is crazy congressional bills to add $700B (70%) in military spending this year with $500B permanent, and to put Mossad in command of US intelligence. This gets harder, if military goals are limited to Cuba/Canada, or recession hits, and US power/“pretenses of idealism in abusing power” loses credibility. There’s a far better world with Iran an influence peer.

      It’s a good deal because the US and Israel are terrorist states that engage in genocide, but it’s also good for the US because it floods Iran with dollars (which bolsters our currency).

      Ideally a deal would be struck in which we lean on Israel to remove all nuclear weapons from the Middle East, and in exchange Iran dismantles their nuclear energy program.

      The Israeli’s stole our nuclear technology and should be forced to give us back our nukes (our tech = our nukes), but we’ve yet to see a president willing to stand up to Israel on this matter. If we could remove all nuclear weapons from the region, the global economy would be safer and Israel would not be able to threaten its neighbors into wanting their own nuclear weapons.

      It seems like a pretty fair deal for peace. US ceases aggression and helps rebuild. Iran reopens the strait.

      Everything else is window dressing. Promises can always be broken by either side, but this would conclusively end things for now.

      Is it great solely for US self interest? Maybe not but no one cares.
