Iran's Supreme Leader Opposed the Memorandum of Understanding- Update

Fox News: Reports the following, " Iran leader opposed MOU, but approved it only after Iranian president took responsibility "

Let's Get Real:

The good news for Trump is that Iran's Supreme Leader also opposed the MOU and that the Iranian President took responsibility for it, there are always hawks and Doves in each country.  This latest revelation does not change this blogs and the general opinion that Trump blundered in to a WAR of choice and failed.

Iran to charge fees for Strait of Hormuz - Update

Guardian: Reports the following, " Iran announces plans to bring in maritime fees for strait of Hormuz 

Let's Get Real: 

This was not the US plan for the Strait and Gulf States are already complaining, the WAR was a strategic blunder of the first order, Tehran states the fees will come in to effect after the extension to the 60 day ceasefire.  Lets be honest there is no way that Tehran will give up its nuclear stockpile, whatever Trump thinks in his delusional mind.  On the whole the WAR was a disaster for Trump and the World. 


The Final US - Iran Deal - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " President Donald Trump formally signed the deal - which is set to reopen the pivotal Strait of Hormuz - while attending the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains in France.  "

Let's Get Real:

The Deal is BAD, it's reopens Strait of Hormuz; it was open before the war; does not guarantee that Iran won't charge service charges, against international law.  No clear agreement on ending Iran' s nuclear stockpile.  The removal sanctions on Iran.  These are just the low points, the Hawks in the Republican Party should have a fit, the Democrats will use the issue in the November elections.  Also Israel will not be happy, they are staying in Lebanon, whatever Trump agrees with the theocracy in Iran.
