Donald Trump HAS a Problem…
It IS Israel….
(And Iran of course )
Israel Prime Minsiter Netanyahu helped talk the American President into his current War ….
And Netanyahu does NOT want a cease fire…
Bibi and his RightWing Nut just want to level the Arabs in the Middle East that they are against…
Last night when the media WAS blaring a cease for and Trump and Hegseth where saying ‘Victory’?
Israel was STILL bombing Lebanon in spite of Trump’s saying Lebanon was included in the ceasefire…
Now?
Iran has closed down the Strait oil Hormuz and stopped the Trump and Hegseth ‘Victory’ thing dead in it’s tracks…
It would appear that we have the Israeli ‘tail’ wagging the Trump War ?
Oh?
And the media reports about the US going ‘into’ Iran to salvage the uranium?
Does ANYBODY buy that?
One would think that ANY celebration of Victory by Trump & Co (Hegseth in particular) will delay or stop ANY Iran serious ‘Deal’….
And Netanyahu and Co. will be Fine with That….
So far?
The American President IS playing a bad hand …
And he seems ‘LOST’ and OVER his Head….
And crutch Hegseth , the ‘Warrior’ , ain’t making things better
“Iran is halting oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz after Israel attacked Lebanon,” CNN reports.
“Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said earlier that Lebanon was included in the ceasefire between Israel, the United States and Iran, but the Israeli military said attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon would continue.”
- The United States and Iran both claimed victory Wednesday after the two countries and Israel agreed to a two-week ceasefire to halt more than a month of war, even as more drones and missiles hit the Islamic Republic and Gulf Arab states.
- All sides have presented vastly different versions of the terms. Iran said the deal would allow it to formalize its new practice of charging ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of all traded oil and natural gas passes in peacetime. U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S. would work with Iran to remove buried enriched uranium, though Iran did not confirm that.
- Pakistan and others said fighting would pause in Lebanon, which Israel has invaded to fight the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said early Wednesday that the deal doesn’t cover fighting against Hezbollah.
- Israel struck several dense commercial and residential areas in central Beirut Wednesday afternoon without warning, killing at least 112 people and wounding hundreds of others. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, Iranian state media reported.

“When President Donald Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran yesterday, he said the US had received a 10-point peace proposal that he believed was a ‘workable basis on which to negotiate,’” CNN reports.

Schumer says Senate will vote on Iran war powers resolution next week
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday said the upper chamber will vote on a war powers resolution to check President Trump’s power over military operations in Iran.
The measure comes as the Trump administration has touted progress on a ceasefire agreement with Tehran and is looking to develop a longer-term peace deal….
…
Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) each backed separate war powers resolutions for the Iran operation last month. All failed.
The House also defeated a bipartisan resolutionforcing President Trump to terminate military operations against Tehran until the administration can win congressional approval.
But Schumer says it’s time to resume the push to pull back Trump’s power with more support after noting the war caused the country’s credibility to sink “down the drain.” ….
