Just Tom... 🐁Of all the outcomes I had anticipated, this one escaped my notice - that the US would agree a ceasefire that leaves them in a weaker position than before they began this unnecessary and Ill-advised war. All the loss of life, the consolidation of Iran's position against the "Great Satan", the cost to the US in arms, personnel, embassies and other real estate in the area and reputation - all for nothing. Ranks with Suez as a humiliation if I read it correctly.
Chip Butty@tompearce49 the position of the US doen't matter. Just the wealth of him and his clique. Have we seen what trades and bets were going on around this yet?
Chris@tompearce49 good job the suez debacle finished the tories politically
kauer@tompearce49 The same thing will eventually happen to Russia. Arguably it's already happened to Russia.
Fardels BearThe #TrumpRegime is desperate for a way out of the disaster they created. Of course they'll spin it as a victory, in the sense that the Strait of Hormuz will re-open, but it was only closed in the first place as a result of Trump's hubris. He's the world's Killer Clown.
