There will be no further face to face meetings in Pakistan

Presume there will be a ramping up of military action

The Tangoed Tw@t told his mates to short the markets on Friday.
Insider trading so obvious.

Too right. That’s why I can’t see this war ending any time soon.
He doesn’t care if the redneck MAGA morons have to pay 10 dollars a gallon for gas.
He doesn’t care about spiralling the world into recession.
He doesn’t care which nation he insults next.
He only cares about two things: 1) Grifting as many dollars as he can from whatever corrupt, dodgy scam he can can me up with.
2) That fecking ballroom.

As posted last month, the Pentagon at that time were planning on things through September. No time soon.
I feel like we are back at the beginning of Covid again. "This'll all be over in a couple of weeks." Eh, no.

Trump trying the "We have all the cards" cliché yet again at the same time as cancelling the talks because he obviously doesn't "have all the cards" and knows that Iran can sit it out.

He's like some sort of Sinclair ZX-81 algorithm with only four possible responses, plus Space Invaders if he gets bored with eating hamburgers.

Iran can sit it out.

Not according to analysis of their oil production and storage. They have to have almost continuous flow onto ships. The dont have large storage facilities. Once that is at maximum, which isn't too far away, they will have to shut off the oil pumps. This will lead to water contamination of the rig and crude oil reserve. Causing potentially catastrophic loss of oil production.

The other element is they are losing $500 million a day in lost revenue, again placing financial pressure

The war has added $1 to average US gasoline price.

Rest of world shouldn't have become so dependent on foreign oil from Islamic terrorists.

The money saved on the Limcoln memorial reflecting pool , he could justified in spending those saving making an even bigger ballroom

Speculating ... I wonder if things might hold at the current impasse for a bit, US/Iran sort of playing things along without any major military action. Reason being Trūmp won't want active fighting whilst King visiting and won't want active fighting whilst he's visiting China/Xi. It would be a big disruption if the world press were covering front pages with who dropped bombs on who doing what damage where Trūmp wants all the focus on Trũmp eg shaking hands with Xi, talking about how no US President has ever made such an amazing deal for the US anywhere, every in all eternity ...

That probably also means that Israel will have to maintain its ceasefire with Lebanon which unfortunately seems to mean they continue the killing and destruction unabated yet scream "we're victim" to the world the moment somebody thinks about any retaliation.

Murders young woman for protesting.

That's alright then :okay:

Islamic radicals using a religion to execute young women for daring to say their oppression is not wanted anymore

It’s their country & their business. It doesn’t have anything to do with us. When the insider traders conflict is over that will all carry on. Perhaps you can go on a march through London about them.

So the logic should be it's not our business if America and Israel bomb them either? Injustice, including murdering peaceful protesters, is everybody's business surely, regardless of where it occurs.
