Trump signals end to Iran negotiations with fiery Truth Social post

[CrusaderFrank]

No. Iran made Lebanon a condition of the deal. Hezbollah was getting pounded. They were launching rockets at northern Israel, and so Israel bombed Beirut.

Israel saw right through that, and they had to bomb Beirut to prove that point to Trump.

I’ll never understand how the USA gets sucked into attacking Iran on the pretext that they were an imminent threat to Israel just to free Israel up to blitz Lebanon for the Greater Israel Lebensraum

EXACTLY> The only way to win the game, is to not play. GET US OUT OF THERE!

Hm.

As a gamer, I have serious issues with that statement.

Iran is standing up for the Lebanese civilians getting displaced and murdered

Lies.

They are covering for Hezbollah, their decimated proxies in Lebanon.

1.2MM Lebanese civilians are not “proxies”

That’s like the “Everyone in Gaza is Hamas” lie

You deliberately distorted my statement.

Hezbollah is their proxy. The Lebanese government has already expressed their discontent with Hezbollah putting Lebanese citizens in danger by attacking Israel.

Lebanon hates Hezbullah as much as Israel. It is because of Hezbullah that Lebanon gets attacked. Lebanon does not have the military force to throw them out.

Yeah, maybe

Also looks like a Greater Israel blitz

It is hard to fathom that it has taken Trump all this time to realize Iran has no interest in peace.

The United States started the war. Trump supporters keep trying to dance past that.

Claiming that Iran has no interest in peace is both false and simply partisan.

Iran was not at war with anyone until the United States and Israel attacked.

Iran has no reason to trust either Netanyahu or Trump. The world knows it, too.

The blame for the current oil crisis lies directly on the shoulders of Donald Trump.

 

[TimFitz]

You underestimate him at your own risk.

I doubt that.

Trump is both a coward and a fool.

He has never kept his word on anything to anyone. They know that in Tehran.

Trump keeps attacking them.

And his sheep want to blame Iran for Trump's duplicity.

Oh come now.

Don't assail me with something we both know is untrue.

If you say so, my friend.

1. Attack
2. Relent and negotiate for peace.
3. When other party fails to negotiate in good faith, miscalculates and shoots down a copter...
4. Attack again, once and for all

What makes you think the US has the resources to end this conflict militarily?

How much would Americans be paying for gasoline if Iran retaliated by destroying Gulf State oil infrastructure?

You ever see our military spending?

Surely you jest.

 

[rightwinger]

That's a lie and you know it.

They had been doing it before Trump was elected.

You live in a world of denial where you reject any facts that don’t meet your agenda
FACTS are that Obama got Iran to turn in its nuclear material and destroy their centrifuges.
FACTS are that Trump tore up the deal without evidence
FACTS are that Iran rebuilt its program after Trump withdrew from the deal
FACTS are that Trump has created an international economic crisis

 

[rightwinger]

Surely you jest.

Military spending did not win the Vietnam war
Military spending did not win in Afghanistan
Military spending has closed the Strait of Hormuz and crippled world economies

Screaming "facts" at me won't make them facts. Life doesn't operate on a leftist slant.

Military spending won WWII

Military spending caused the collapse of the USSR.

Try again?

 

[Woodznutz]

Apparently so do Trump and Bibi

"Truth is the first casualty of war."

 

[georgephillip]

Iran also has high speed torpedoes that can sink any of our warships. However, they know if they use them the U.S. will turn Iran into a parking lot. They are playing a cat and mouse game hoping to affect this fall's election. If the Congress flips its goodbye Trump. If that happens aid for Israel will be cut off and Iran will be back to business as usual.

How does the US "turn Iran into a parking lot" without plunging the world into an economic depression?

"America’s 2025 National Security Strategy calls for gaining control of the world’s oil trade.

"Toward this end, Donald Trump’s Oil War aims at depriving Iran, Iraq and its neighboring OPEC countries of their sovereignty over whom they may sell their oil to, just as he has done to Venezuela.
