Iran Does not want another meeting with US - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 6.54pm post, " Iran is not yet ready to hold a new round of face-to-face talks with US officials, a senior Iranian official said Saturday, citing Washington’s refusal to abandon “maximalist” demands on key issues. "

Let's Get Real:

In other words Tehran thinks time is running out for Trump when it comes to the Hill.   There is a weekly War powers Vote by the Democrsts, thus far the Republicans have been sold behind Trump, wil this change if American ground troops are needed to get Iran's nuclear stockpile or dust as called by Trump after last year bombing.

Iran tried to blackmail US again -Update

Sky News: Reports in its 2.53pm post the following, " They wanted to close up the strait again, as they've been doing for years, they can't blackmail us, Trump stated. " 

Let's Gets Clear.

This was Trump's warning Iran off, Trump comes from the tough World of New York Real estate, all his existence is about the DEAL, one would like to think he has learned something about Foreign Affairs. The dreaded Munich Agreement of 1938, and political ramifications, the War in 1939.  

Iran Closes Strait of Hormuz- Update

BBC News: Reports in its 9.38am post the following, " Iran's military closes Strait of Hormuz again - state media  "

Let's Get Real:

The US has Iran by the throat, it either gives up its nuclear stockpile or face the blocking of Iranian oil money, that keeps the Regime going.  The Tehran Regime will fold in a few hours, they need the money.

Update: BBC News reports that tankers have been fired upon in the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump's Iran Deal - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 5.43pm post the following, " Trump: Iran's enriched uranium will be brought to the US "

Let's Get Real:

This will be the tricky part in any deal with Iran, the Tehran Regime since the start of the conflict has been firm about Iran's right to have a nuclear stockpile, that is why the US is keeping up its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, it wants a total win.  There is talk that the US will give Iran back 20 billion in frozen Assets.  IN Trump's mind that is not baying the nuclear stockpile, as Obama did with his deal.  A deal is expected in a few days in Pakistan. 

Strait of Hormuz OPEN -'Update

Sky News: Reports in its 1.56pm post the following, " Iran's foreign minister declares Strait of Hormuz 'completely open' for rest of ceasefire "

Let's Get Real:

The US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is winning, Iran has its hand on the throat of the Strait, thus winning on Tactical level, but it cannot get its oil out, thus no money for the Regime, thus a strategic win for the US. Trump might not be completely lose cannon when it comes to foreign policy.

Did Sir Keir Lie to the House of Commons - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 3.52pm post the following, " PM has misled parliament and 'must take responsibility' over Mandelson appointment, says Badenoch "

Let's Get Real:

The process of vetting Lord Mandelson was not complete, he did not pass vetting.  The final push came from the FCO, one presumes under the orders from No 10.  Sir Keir should go, but knowing him he will find someone else to blame, plus we need him for the Ukraine.
