“Deadlocked At Square Zero: Very First Line Of Iran’s Latest Proposal ‘Unacceptable,’ Trump Says
“I looked at it, and I don’t like the first sentence. I just throw it away.”

WTF is this? Ah. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hJWUKLj6H8M

Luongo on the very same thing: Iran NOT interested in Israel, the US, Saudi, no one. ONLY DUBAI.

But what else? Why is it the uranium? Well with Trump, yeah, can’t get a nuke to hit Dubai, Saudi, Malacca, our REAL allies – clearly he doesn’t care if Israel is bombed. Question solved.

No. Why can’t Iran GIVE UP the Uranium? We ALREADY said we’d give them nuclear power, we ALREADY said they could downblend, Russia could have it. Cause: Stubborn, right?

Right?

That’s what I’ve been saying, just do the thing, sign some s–t, get the U.S. off your back, rebuild, bomb the f—k out of the U.S. in 2040. Plenty of time to get back at us. It’s strategic. It’s dumb bordering on suicidal not to, the jerks.

No. There is a REASON. The world is LOGICAL. Trump is logical, Xi is logical, Putin is logical, Starmer is logical, and the IRGC is logical. It’s just that their logic is different from ours.

So Luongo (his reader) proposes: “What if the Uranium Iran holds is VERY SPECIAL uranium?” Huh? What if the Uranium Iran got is actually…Russian? Then when they go boom, the boom looks like what Russia Dun it. Hmmm. What if it’s Uranium could make it look like ISRAEL bombed something? See? No one would believe that, just opening the argument here.

Or: What if ALL the Uranium Iran has is HILLARY CLINTON’S URANIUM, from Uranium One, bolted into the center of a pallet of U.S. $100 bills?

Do you see the problem now?

1) Iran, the IRGC, entire premise is that they are the independent, the rogue, the victim, constantly harassed and oppressed by the U.S.

2) The Uranium would then PROVE the IRGC, the whole Iranian state IS A WESTERN OP. All their weapons, their danger is HANDED to them from MI6, CIA, Mossad, they are just another scam.

3) IRGC and in fact modern Iran collapses. All support evaporates. WHY are Iranian public suffering? What were they fighting for? So they can be puppets of MI6, the CIA, and Clinton?

4) That’s not all. If it is Hillary’s Uranium One, then Iran is not OUR enemy either because WE direct them. Iran is clearly an ally, a puppet show, a scam. Our CIA = Their CIA. All intel agencies are as one, CIA, MI6…and the IRGC. There’s no need for US to bomb THEM either. They were all made up. There’s no war at all.

5) Then this is OBVIOUSLY treason of the highest order, to give Uranium to a sworn enemy, by the megaton, PLUS the money to buy the centrifuges.

6) We have them dead to rights. Doesn’t matter what Hillary SAYS, unlike usual. If it’s THAT Uranium, it’s IMPOSSIBLE for it not to be her fault of handing an atomic bomb to a direct enemy. (Iran says we’re the enemy, I don’t care if we also say that.) Uranium, that fingerprint = Hillary is treason. Simple enough for even the American public to get in one headline.

7) Hillary was never President. She cannot act alone. It is IMPOSSIBLE for it not to be Obama’s direct orders or responsibility, as also HE handed Iran everything. And this was much approved by the Europeans, but ESPECIALLY THE BRITISH. THEY are the ones who most lost their minds when JCPOA was canceled.

8) If Hillary committed treason handing a sworn enemy a nuclear bomb, then Obama did too.

9) As did Clapper, Brennan, the whole CIA. As it will be certain – once the headlines sink into the U.S. Public, which will only take 60 seconds – then when we float emails from Brennan planning and approving it all, and more importantly, everyone will believe it.

10) Can you now see why Brennan has a call to arms for the whole CIA, State, every actor in government, to rise up and attack the President this Sunday? In a big hurry? Can you see why EVERY analyst on Fox News is out there hourly, saying the most ABSURD, easily-disproven nonsense about the US War and Iran as if their lives depend on it? Then keep escalating ever dumber things day after day?

11) If Trump ever gets a hold of a TEASPOON of that Uranium, they’re all SUNK. They’re going to be HUNG IN PUBLIC, and rightfully so.

THAT is why Trump can take the negotiation, look at the top line, it says “No Uranium” and throw it away.

This is his SIGNAL to Iran, to the CIA, right there in public, that we common peasants think is just mouthing off. No. It’s very, very, specific.

“Trump Walked Into China and Killed Kissinger’s Thucydides Trap” Promethean Updates•28K•1h ago

Seems like. Just a matter of being aware and NOT having in NoeCons who want a 100 year war that kills 1B people.

All five points. China says:

1. Open Hormuz to all
2. No tolls
3. No weapons to Iran
4. No nukes ever
5. China is shutting off buying from Iran.

Looks like they’re feeling Iran is lost now, all news is pivoting seamlessly back to Ukraine. What Iran? I never heard of any Iran. Also fake and ghey stories:
“In northern Ukraine, it was boy vs. Russian drone. The boy won. A soldier taught a 12-year-old how to disable the fiber-optic drones that Russia has been using to hunt Ukrainian civilians in a campaign the U.N. has labeled a war crime.” — The Washington Post

I’m gonna take the under on this one? So apparently Ukraine is lost because all they need to do to stop drones is conscript 12 year old boys, their secret weapon Russian drone operators are helpless before. Yeah, pretty sure the drones blow them up ‘cause that’s what war-drones are for? The meat-humans are not drone-explosive-resistant?

“Young Kyiv couple killed in a fierce Russian airstrike hoped to start a family, mourners say” –The Associated Press

One guy was killed in Ukraine? Oh noes. That’s never happened before. Etc. Dumb, dumb, dumb, feely-feelz articles that stop all thought and logic.

“Ukraine’s Weirdest Front Line — How a mint-green research base, 14 scientists, and a gentoo penguin colony became part of Ukraine’s war strategy.” — POLITICO

Uhhhh…speaks for itself. You can tell how serious “Journalists” and “The West” are about the war with articles like this. Next up, what was the brand of coffee used on the set of “Friends”? 2M people dead, a whole culture wiped out…Laugh Track! LU-CY, you got some ‘splainin’ to do…!

“UK Moves To Ban New North Sea Oil & Gas Licenses Permanently

All Britons must die. They were resisting. The olds were already freezing in their homes last winter. But not fast enough.

“Pentagon ‘Blindsided’ As Hegseth Pulls Plug On 4,000-Troop Deployment To Poland

We are going to war with Russia the way Berletic, Christophoros demand by first removing all our troops and bases within 500 miles.

“Canada deepens Arctic defense ties with Nordics after Trump threats”

Yes, the addition of Sweden will definitely turn the tide of any U.S. invasion. We’ll attack Iran, a highly-militarized hardcore nation of 90M people on a lark, but not Sweden, which is smaller than one U.S. city. Canada!!! You outsmarted us this time!!!

“Establishment Media Outraged By White House Sponsored Christian Prayer Event

Which we did for 220 years in a row until like 30 years ago. That’s how we know it was the Founding Fathers’ intent. It’s State MANDATED religion that is illegal. Like atheism and Scientism and Wokeism. Not that there are 200 Protestant denominations, and a new one splits every day.

This is 5 days after they were breathless in love and veneration for the Pope, if only he would say “Man Bad”; which is 5 days after hating the Pope and all Catholics for abuse and calling them violent troglodytes who should be monitored by the FBI and rounded up, children stripped, and killed. Opposite + Opposite + Opposite + Opposite. Thanks media. I’m sure you’re all good-faith actors and this is just some misunderstanding.

“The WHO Drums Up Fear With Ebola After Hantavirus Scare Fails

Never tired. I mean, they’re going to blow air out their nose-hole anyway, why not economize and lie at the same time? Breathing = Lying. Win-Win.

[Dr. D]

Today:

“The fundamental moral flaw of the left is empathy for the criminals and not empathy for the victims”

Basically true, and this goes to Socialism, that is, in modern discussions, a politics of POWER. In a sane world, Criminals have rights and Victims have rights too. The question is how to balance their rights in a moral and practical way. We already did that, decades back. The modern sense is, Whoever has more POWER is evil and is wrong. Criminals have less POWER, as an aggregate, than the State, so they are the Victims and must be fought for at all costs, put into the power position, or at least an equal position. State and Criminals are equal. Criminals and Victims are equal. Etc. This is of course madness, because hurting people is not equal to not hurting them. One actually IS the moral and functional superior to the other. That is to say “God Exists.”

Why we have to say this, and at this very late date, having now tested it for 20-40 years I don’t know, yet here we are. This was the premise of the “Dirty Harry” movies, and the DEI hires he had as a partner in S.F. That was 1974? We already knew that was dumb as dirt?

No. Victims are ABOVE Criminals, sorry. But Criminals can be redeemed. It’s just very difficult to do, and difficult to prove safely. I wan them all to prosper but there are practical considerations. Prison is expensive and I don’t want them there, but the Innocent have rights.

“Kevin Warsh says QE is fueling inflation.”

#Oppositeland as usual, too much to think about and track each day. Remember Warsh was supposed to be a cut interest rates, goose Trump’s economy guy? Apparently not so much, he wants to shut the money off. It was reported, therefore it was a lie. QED. Thanks, Media. And also a lot of smart people predicted this wasn’t so simple, like Luongo.

“• Tehran Claims US Faces Escalating Economic Fallout From ‘War Of Choice’ (ZH)

Sure. And that’s a good pitch. But why would anyone care? If there are no midterms now, it will make no difference until 2028, far too late. Fox News, everyone just WANTS the Midterm to matter, so just go on as if it’s still totally in play, a month later. It’s not. I’m not even sure they would have lost on the OLD mapping.

“Araghchi also pointed to growing economic strain inside the United States, saying auto loan delinquencies had already climbed to their highest level in more than 30 years.”

All of this was going on long before Iran, (Since 1999) but again, it’s a good pitch. However, he’s asking the American people to vote for Iran, and elect Mojtaba Khomeini as President. I think that’s ultimately a hard sell.

“”There is no military solution to anything related to Iran”

I actually don’t know what you mean by this, stop speaking in abstractions. If you mean, “Destroying the entire military and Iran as a state won’t stop their viability and control of Hormuz” you’re sadly mistaken. That’s literally what militaries are for. If you’re going to fall back on “Iran wins if they don’t cease to exist” well that’s a desperately low bar to shoot for. We never wanted, intended, or acted to make Persians cease to exist, that’s crazy. Nor would the American people support the murder of all 90M of you. Get a grip, that’s not what’s happening. You’re definitely going to “Win”, if “Win” is “Existing”. You may be existing at an Iron-Age level though. Don’t do that, it’s dumb and unnecessary. You won’t be able to get back at us if you go there.

“• China Confirms Boeing Deal, Will Cut Select Levies & Expand Agri Trade (ZH)

I was focused on the Iran wins, there were a dozen more wins for Trump here. And not Trump, but China, as we both just behave “Normally” and “Trade” so we both get rich and there’s no war. Jeff Sachs is super-sad, I’m sure.

One thing Luongo pointed out, first — Probably Trump paid China to buy those 200 Boeings, he gave concessions to get the headline win, normal negotiation stuff. But 200 Jets is A LOT! We peasants don’t grasp the details, but that’s 200 planes, lasting 20 years, where there CAN ONLY be parts supplies, connection to the U.S. in perpetuity. Xi is BINDING China to the U.S. which is the purpose. That means no war. HEADLINE!!! No war!

Double down on that. Why?

IF China PAYS Boeing to make planes, they make factories, and those factories can make fighter-bombers. That’s not just saying, that’s literally Trump’s public plan: we are helpless, have no industry, and national defense means we need that back. So China is PAYING to build our “weapons factories”. See? That China is WILLING to do so means they have NO WAR, no intent of war, and trust us to have no war, or it would be idiotic to hand us a nickel to industrialize, much less hundreds of billions for 30 years.

NO WAR.

And the food, chips, materials, etc ALSO binds us up in trade as partners, not enemies, and not even rivals. Thucydide’s Trap is dead, as above. It was all Bulls—t P.R. from Europe and NeoCons to MAKE us fight a war we’d lose. Russia, Iran, China, anywhere, they dgaf so long as ppl die, Yanks die, and we lose. As Russia Rev 2.0 you need a WWI to cause the stress to Civil War out the U.S. and break them. We would prefer not to, actually. Rather not lose AND not have a war, thanks.

“• Attractive Young Women Are Now The New Face Of The ‘Far-Right’ (ZH)

Being beautiful is Far Right now. Okay, you win, I concede.

““Tina Peters, a 73-year-old woman with cancer, was given a nine year jail sentence in Colorado because she caught the Democrats CHEATING..”

Actually, this was the only way to give her free health care. Otherwise she’d have to be an immigrant. No really this case was AMAZING and APPALLING. One where judges should hang, and we have the emails. Almost no one was following it.

“• A Society Without God Is a Society Without Truth (Josh Hammer)

Interesting, and I say it often. However, an absolute truth leads to Legalism, as they wildly demonstrated later with the Pharisees. And which Jesus put up as the stoned Adultress (This sounds different in modern language). Note what he DIDN’T say though, which is forgotten. Modern 1969-Christianity is “God Is Love” dude, and “Don’t Harsh My Mellow” by being all square and laying down the law. Forgive! And so Jesus let her off, rejecting the law.

NO. That’s not what happened. Technically, and “technically” in the Law = The Law. He “wrote in the sand” …something. Maybe names of all their mistresses? Their crimes? And then asked who would like to throw the first stone. They declined, and in fact left the building. Then Jesus declared her innocent! NO. He then said, “Hey chickie, the courtroom is empty. No one’s here. So is there any special reason you need to hang around now?” She says no. There is no police, no prosecuting attorney, and no judge present. They all forgot and wandered off. That’s not being innocent. That’s just being LEGAL.

And he says, “Go home then, AND SIN NO MORE.” That is, it IS a sin. It IS illegal. The Law exists.

Mercy…AND Justice, as I often say. So they have Mercy, infinite mercy, for the criminals, as above, but no JUSTICE for the injured. And this is also wrong, as wrong as the opposite. Let’s not do that.

““..enforce the law, arrest people who commit crimes, get the crackheads off the streets, and make sure firefighters are funded”

How do you defeat a Color Revolution, Russian Rev 2,0? Not with more extremism. With being NORMAL. But normal is BORING and infuriating, as we all know and read each day. It’s WORK. Shooting neighbors that annoy you and rounding them up is fun! Yeah, too bad. Sucks to be an adult, don’t do that.

“• Sarmat: The Missile Meant To Make Any Enemy Think Twice (Kornev)

Seriously bad. Hey let’s not go to war.

“RINOs trying without Trump endorsement are having a hard time.”

Heck, we hated RINOs when Trump was still 40.

“• Supreme Court Delivers Devastating Blow to Democrats Gerrymandering

Again, just look at the maps: The “Virginia Lobster” is even MORE of a Gerrymander than the original Cartoon from 1812. It puts the very concept to shame, as is true in like 10 states. But as a ruling, it’s obvious: they JUST SAID that the problem with Federal Elections is, the States get to decide anyway they like, it’s truly a State’s Rights issue. Suddenly VA wants it to be the #Opposite. Yeah, no. And if it were Federal we STILL wouldn’t do it, but no.

Obama, 2018: Yes, that’s the problem. Everyone knows, who’s been arrested? Known for 8 years. And? So who is PROTECTING them as well? Same as who protects dimwits like Graham, Swalwell, Starmer, Ursula? Everyone who ever met them hates their guts, yet they’re in decade after decade. AOC, and … was it Paul? Johnson? Said they have no power. So if the power isn’t in Congress but above that, where is it? ‘Cause sure looks like OBAMA used some power here and had no trouble, rounded up all his opponents. Does it have something to do with Schumer, speaker of the house, who said “The Intel Agencies have 6 ways to Sunday to get you” on National TV? And no one blinked when he said it, we all knew?

Snowden: so long ago now, like Obama, I forgot they got him out of the country, put on tap, to come testify before Congress to end this. It took 10 years longer than expected, as these things do.

The Docktor writing War and Peace. Sorry I’m participating. My bad. I should Black Pill, give up, and sit on the couch like real patriots do. Everything sucks. We can’t win. Just give up. Did I do good now?
