Here's what Iran gets:

1. to assert military control over the Strait of Hormuz
2. to collect a 1-million-dollar toll for ships passing through the strait (passage was free before)
3. to rebuild its bridges and roads at the world's expense
4. to enrich uranium
5. install a regime which is even more domestically repressive than the previous one
6. a guarantee that neither America nor Israel will ever attack them again

MIGA: Make Iran Great Again -- hurrah !


Here's what America gets:

1. to waste tens of billions of dollars in munitions for nothing
2. to bring home an undisclosed number of her sons in body bags
3. a regime in Iran which is even more anti-American than the previous one
4. not enough cash in the treasury to rebuild its roads and bridges, or to finance health care or child care


Here's what the Kurds get:

1. some guns (maybe, Trump thinks they might)


Trump will no doubt spin this as the most tremendous military and diplomatic victory, ever. And, yes, I have to agree, he has succeeded in spades: he knocked the Epstein scandal right off the front page news and still not released the files.

Pathetic, isn't it?

Truly pathetic.

Plus the first loss of a U.S. military aircraft to enemy fire in 20 years--plus three more aircraft lost in the rescue. There is no way Trump can spin this as anything but a debacle for the world's premier fighting force.

And for what? Nothing but a two-week cease fire.

Nothing even approaching a verifiable nuclear arms treaty (which is what Obama negotiated and Trump45 tore up in a fit of pique).

All Trump did was prove that Iran sits on the longer end of the lever, controlling both choke points to the Red Sea/Suez Canal and the Persian Gulf, through which most of the world's shipping routes.

? Victory? Nonono, little man, this is simply a de-escalation. It is long from a resolution. You taint your own posts quite often, I have noticed. It is a temporary thing, a strategic pause. Remember we are dealing with animals.
They did not surrender. They did hot concede anything permanent.
The USA succeeded in buying time....very important. It stabilizes, avoids a wider war. Crisis management we call it in the office. Business. And when both sides say they 'won', that means neither did. My my, you do jump the gun a lot, like a child


You seem gleeful , like a little boy at his birthday party. when you speak of the planes lost. creepy guy

This sound like what Hamas was telling Gazans after 30,000 were killed, and Gaza destroyed. Typical Muslim delusional propaganda.

Got your head up your butt there MoonButt.

Hamas is collecting shipping tolls?

The only thing official is that Iran submitted a 10 point plan to Pakistani officials that trump said was workable. That plan includes everything on the list in the OP and then some. Iran comes out waaaay stronger.

You really are as delusional as moonbus. First of all, I dont know about the US, but Israel would not accept deals with terrorists. Do you really think Israel will agree to a permanent ceasefire, or for Iran to pursue uranium enrichment?

Are you people that f ..ing stupid?

Yeah trump changed the policy on terrorist negotiations in the US. He released thousands of terrorists from afghan prisons back in his first term.

Funny that this deal gives Iran way more than Obama did. It'll even let them keep their nuke.

EDIT: I almost forgot that Trump invited the Taliban to the White House to negotiate the release of thousands of terrorists. Yowza. You say Israel won't negotiate, but Israel can't fight Iran without the US, which is why Bibi tricked Trump into thinking this war somehow helped America.

They are supporter of terrorists especially the Islamic variety.
They are a sick bunch.

Funny how neither you nor the opening post has any links that support your conclusions on the Pakistan deal. I wonder why? I think yours and moonbus's are twisted versions because what is going on is that the deal is not finalised and things are still being worked out. You terrorists supporters are quick to claim victory and say things that just not true.

You can use your AI chatbot I'm sure. The plan is "workable" according to Trump. He'll use the next two weeks looking for an exit that doesn't harm him politically, while Iran is preparing for a struggle and vying for financial control of the strait whose name Trump cannot pronounce.

Everyone loses except the Ayatollah.

I did my own checking and your posts are twisted nonsense. I am more concerned about the motive behind your desire to lie and support the opening post which is another blatant lie.

Why are you terrorist supporters so brazen.

Stop the name calling. Trump released thousands of terrorists from prison. I did not.
