SA and the US attack Iranian terrorists in Iraq - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Saudi Arabia and the US have carried out strikes against Iran-backed militias in Iraq, ..."

Let's Get Real:

Thus while the Trump Oval talks peace again, the Tehran Regime gets allied terrorist groups to do their bidding, and export terrorism. The Trump Oval must accept that it cannot win a war, with its start and stop war, the Tehran Regime is playing him, they know his VP is against the War and so are the American people.  The great deal maker Trump has not sold the war to the American people or the MAGA base in the Republican Party, and the political cycle never stops, the Mid Terms in November and the 2028 Presidential cycle starts in 2027.  Time is not something Trump has to spare.

US - Iran Strikes - Update

BBC News: Reports " Iran says it has carried out drone strikes on US military facilities and bases across the Middle East in retaliation for the 13th consecutive night of American attacks on the country. " 

Let's Get Real:

This WAR can only end when the Tehran Regime is taken down by Trump.  If Trump can keep his nerve he will be the President that the Iranian problem.  CNN and the left wing media are acting like the Appeasing UK Times of the 1930s.  They seem to have forgotten that the Tehran Regime killed over thirty thousand of its own people when they protested against the Regime.  Trump should ignore the Media, and win the WAR, he can restore Presidential Credibility and take it to the Democrats in the Mid Terms.  This is Trump's one chance at greatness!

SA to go nuclear on condition they recognise Israel - Update

BBC News: Reports "  Saudis must recognise Israel for nuclear deal, says Trump "

Let's Get Real:

This will change the Middle East if Saudi Arabia goes nuclear and must recognise Israel, it will be a major foreign policy achievement for the Trump Oval, SA is  close ally of the US, this is the reason that Iran has told the Houthis of Yemen to attack SA tankers in the Red Sea, after the War with the US restarted.  Thus US will have to protect SA Tankers, while fighting Iran.  The Democrats have passed another resolution to curtail the WAR POWERS of Trump, he has to win the war before the Mid Terms.

No details from US and Russian talks will be published - Trump47

BBC News: Reports in its 8.52am that no details will be published of the US and Russian talks in SA.

Lets Get Real:

God forbid that the Trump was tough on Russia, on the other hand after the leak from the WhatsApp discussion, the Trump NSC does not want to be labelled appesers,  no wants to be compared to Neville Chamberlain, it will be interesting to see what comes out later today! 

Further Talks in Saudi Arabia - Trump47

BBC News;: Reports in its 12.50pm post that Russia, Ukraine and the US are meeting in Saudi Arabia  to discuss a ceasefire.

Lets Get Real:

What Europe?, and troops they have offered as peacekeepers, the US envoy has suggested that Sir Keir is posing, and that he is having a Sir Winston Churchill moment, what an insult from a member of the Trump Adminstration, it shows how little the US thinks of the UK and Europe.   Let's hope that the UK and France follow through, this could OLD Europe can still shine. 

NO Comprise from Russia - Trump47

BBC News: Reports in its 9.33am post that the Russians show no sign of compromise and will fight on.

Lets Get Real:

The Kremlin has received no pressure from their puppet, Donald Trump.  IN fact Putin can not believe his luck, Trump is appeaser in chief, he is as bad as Neville Chamberlain was to Hitler, the Ukraine is fighting back, a massive drone strike on Moscow last night, Kyiv does have some cards to play, even if Trump is trying to cut them.  There will be talks between Ukraine and US today in Saudi Arabia today, we shall what they bring.

Partial Ceasefire Suggested by Ukraine - Trump47

BBC News: Reports that Ukraine will suggest a partial ceasefire in the WAR with Russia.

Lets Get Real:

The US and Ukraine will meet tomorrow in Saudi Arabia, the Ukraine will suggest a partial ceasefire, it will cover the sea and air, Russia in the past has dismissed such a idea, with Trump being a pawn of Russia, what more will he demand for Russia.   Thus far Trump has demand nothing of Russia, as this blog has suggested Saudi Arabia could be the new Munich 1938, giving Russia what it wants, a vassal state with no defences, thus allowing Russia to invade later on.

US Intelligence Pause with Ukraine could be lifted - Trump47

Guardian: Reports in its 7.54am post that US pause on Intelligence with Ukraine could be lifted soon as stated by President Trump.

Lets Get Real:

I won't hold my breath on this, lives have already been lost with the pause.  It's the fault of the man - child in the Oval Office, the US Cabinet says nothing, the US Secretary does nothing but follow what ever POTUS says, Zelensky is humiliated in the Oval Office, will Europe really back him if it comes to the Crunch.   We could have another Munich 1938, in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, what concessions will Russia demand of Ukraine, in this the road to WW3? 

Elections in the Ukraine - Trump - Trump47

Sky News: Reports in its 10.03pm post that President Trump is calling for fresh elections in the Ukraine.

Lets Get Real:

As the post points out this would allow Russia to run their own candidate, a puppet who would follow the Russian line, all those Ukrainian deaths for NOTHING.  One does hope that the UK PM will stand up to Trump, time for some straight talking from the UK PM, make Trump realise that the UK will make him a laughing stock of the World, the British should stand with the Ukraine, no matter the cost.   MY expectations are not high, Sir Winston will be rolling in his grave.

Russia Questions the ROLE of Europe in Peace Talks - Trump 47

Sky News: Reports in its 10.54am post that the Russian Foreign Minister has questioned the role of Europe in ant peace deal.

Lets Get Real:

The Russians only want to deal with Trump, they see him as a pushover, a President who seeks the headlines, and whose ego is not matched by his talents, even Richard Nixon would be turning in his grave! This is not 1938, or the COLD WAR, Russia is a lesser power today, it is trying it on, its not the USSR or Imperial Russia, Trump is the modern Gorachev in reverse, what else will Trump give away in talks with Putin in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere, Europe needs to worry, specially Eastern Europe and the Baltic States.

UK ready to place troops in Ukraine if ceasefire- Trump 47

 BBC News Reports in its 7.29am post that the UK PM has stated that the UK is ready and willing to place UK troops in Ukraine  if there is a peace deal.

Lets Get Real:

This is a brave and good move by PM Starmer, if Trump wants to sell a Deal, he will need the Ukraine and Europe on board, we recall 1938 and Munich, and then the UK was there, NOW we are in the COLD,  very much like Czechoslovakia was in 1938, and what happened Hitler's Germany came back for more.  2025 cannot be a repeat of 1938.  One wishes that Trump read books, political history, are we doomed to make the same mistakes again.  ONE is wary of a US-Russia deal, and Trump selling out the Ukraine.

The Felon and War Criminal to meet in Saudi Arabia - Trump47

BBC News: Reports in its 9.04pn post that President Trump is to meet President Putin of Russia in Saudi Arabia.  The President's will discuss the Ukraine War.

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Great Sellout starts, Ukraine by the sound of things won't be there, Munich 1938 all over again.  ONE can only hope, NATO members remember their history, they will need to back the Ukraine when the US cuts off the money, or we will have WW3 later, a shameful day for Western Security, God help the Ukraine!

OPEC+ BACKSTABS the US over Oil - Biden Era

The White House: Has a Statement by the White House on the decision of OPEC+ to reduce Oil in the system and thus increase prices, "  The President is disappointed by the shortsighted decision by OPEC+ to cut production quotas while the global economy is dealing with the continued negative impact of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. At a time when maintaining a global supply of energy is of paramount importance, this decision will have the most negative impact on lower- and middle-income countries that are already reeling from elevated energy prices......At the President’s direction, the Department of Energy will deliver another 10 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to the market next month, continuing the historic releases the President ordered in March. The President will continue to direct SPR releases as appropriate to protect American consumers and promote energy security, and he is directing the Secretary of Energy to explore any additional responsible actions to continue increasing domestic production in the immediate term.....In light of today’s action, the Biden Administration will also consult with Congress on additional tools and authorities to reduce OPEC’s control over energy prices.....With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, the U.S. is now poised to make the most significant investment ever in accelerating the clean energy transition while increasing energy security, by increasing our reliance on American-made and American-produced clean energy and energy technologies.  "

Lets Get Real:

One can assume that the Presidential visit to Saudi Arabia did not build bridges with the regime, that is what happens when you castgate its leader in your Presidential campaign, as Biden did in 2020 and then go and ask for a favour.  Less oil in the system, helps Russia with its fight with the West, Putin's Kremlin will be very happy, thus the Biden Oval will have to make sure that oil prices do not go up before the November Mid Terms, and also that Western Allies have enough power to prevent power cuts, in that case this would be Germany.  It could be a very cold winter in Europe.   Thus one can see the Putin strategy, weaken Europe through the Winter, force them to place pressure on Ukraine to give up areas to Russia, also if that does not happen, have a low yield nuclear bomb ready to go if the Russians take more losses, even Russia State media is starting to brake, the Russian people cannot say they do not know what is going on, the young men of Russia are heading for the borders, the gossip about the deaths will get through, this happened during the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in the 1980s.  Putin does not have all the time in the World. 

The Iran Nuclear Deal - Update - Biden Era

CNN - Middle East: Reports " Iran wants compensation if US pulls out of nuclear deal again, diplomatic source says "

Lets Get Real:

President Biden if he goes with this DEAL, will be showing the same arrogance as Neville Chamberlain did in 1938 at Munich, history has shown that Joe Biden knows nothing about international politics or history, this was shown by the US Departure from Afghanistan, Biden is desperate to bee seen as a Master of World Affairs, a bit like Woodrow Wilson and Richard Nixon, those Presidents were flawed, but they were right when it came to ending World War 1 and the War in Vietnam, Biden was opposed to US troops being in Afghanistan during the Obama Presidency when he was VP, at least Obama overruled him then, last year there was no one to overrule Biden, he is the President.  Thus we come to the Obama - Iran deal, if the Biden Oval goes for this DEAL, he will be seen as a Appeaser, in the same mould of Chamberlain.  The US allies in the Middle East will get the message, that the US is WEAK and they must act together to prevent Iran getting the bomb, no matter what the Biden Oval wants.  Thus will WORLD SECURITY come down to Israel and its new Allies, that is the future Debate.  Iran cannot allowed to have the bomb, it has shown that it is either close to the bomb or has the bomb, the only person not getting that message is POTUS. 

The Other Crisis, Iran - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 08.38am post the following, " 

Iran preparing to supply Russia with weapon-capable drones, White House says.....

US national security adviser Jake Sullivan said it was unclear whether Iran had already provided any of the unmanned systems to Russia, but said the US has "information" that indicated Iran was preparing to train Russian forces to use them as soon as this month.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is what happens when rogue nations get to together, the Tehran Government is not sincere when it has talks with the US and the West about its nuclear development, the Tehran Regime is backing up Russia that is in a WAR with the West.  One does hope that the MOSSAD, the Israeli Intelligence network is keeping an eye on the nuclear sites of Iran, it can be postulated that by NOW, the Regime has enough nuclear material for a NUCLEAR BOMB.  POTUS is on this way to the Middle East, it is expected that Saudi Arabia and Israel will pressing for the Biden Oval to do SOMETHING, if the Democrats lose the US Congress in November, the only area that a President has most of the power is FOREIGN POLICY.  Let's look at the Donkey in the room, Biden is coming under pressure not to run in 2024, does he cave like LBJ in 1968 or does he do a Carter and run and lose.   Interesting developments in foreign policy. 

US and Iran Navies Clash in the Strait of Hormuz - Biden Era

Daily Mail: Reports " US Navy warship fires warning flare after Iranian fast attack boat almost CRASHES into it: Three military speed boats buzz the USS Sirocco in latest tense stand-off in Strait of Hormuz  "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden White House has told Senators from both Parties that the Obama Nuclear Deal is on the way out.  While the Biden Oval dithers about what to do, one assumes that Israel will never allow IRAN to go nuclear, in that view one assumes the Gulf States and Saudi Arabia also agree.  The US under Biden would like a DEAL, but the costs outweigh the benefits at present, the Tehran Regime wants the US to remove ALL sanctions, and allow it to fund terror groups, while Biden must know that that Iran is close to getting nuclear material for the bomb.  At some point something has to give, either the Tehran Government gets real and does a proper deal or the US and its ALLIES will have to take action, that could lead to a reginal war, if the US acts alone, one assumes that Tehran will not try to drag in other Countries, the US is bad, a US having to defend its ALLIES could be worse, the very existence of the Tehran Regime would be at risk.  Tense days ahead. 

Biden's OTHER CRISIS, Iran - Biden Era

CNN - Politics: Reports " US Secretary of State Tony Blinken said Thursday that it will "further complicate" efforts to salvage the 2015 Iran nuclear deal if Iran removes cameras that monitor its nuclear program and could lead to "a deepening nuclear crisis and further economic and political isolation for Iran."  "

Lets Get Real:

What is it with this Administration when it comes to Iran, the Tehran Regime wants it nuke, they see that the US has done nothing when it comes to North Korea and has not sent NATO troops in to the Ukraine.  The appeasers in the Biden Administration have been seeking a renewed Obama Deal, it was BAD DEAL then, its even a worse deal NOW.  One can assume that Tehran has enough nuclear material to make the BOMB, that is a nuclear bomb.  One assumes that if they have the bomb or are close to getting the bomb, then ISRAEL will ACT, it will not wait for Biden to wake up.  A nuclear armed Iran, is a THREAT to Israel, thus one expects either that Biden and Allies do something or ISRAEL will act on its own.  The US, Israel, and Gulf Allies see a nuclear armed Iran as a THREAT, one can be sure that if Iran gets the bomb, Saudi Arabia will spend the trillions it has on developing in its own bomb or buy one on the black market.  Thus Biden has a choice, if the US attacks Iran, then Tehran might not react, yes some missile attacks on Iraq and other US bases but not ALL OUT WAR, if Israel has to act, then Tehran might start a regional WAR, do we really want to see the gas prices then.  It is time for Biden to be a REAL POTUS and act and take the responsibility, he has to be the new Truman, he has to act for US and World Security. 

Even Appeasing Iran does not help Biden - Biden Era

The Hill: Reports " The foreign minister of Iran said Saturday that a loosening of sanctions from the U.S. was “not enough” and that the country wants guarantees that the 2015 nuclear deal will be reinstated, Reuters reports.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden Oval is trying to appease Iran, but the Tehran Government knows that Biden has his hands full with the Russians in the Ukraine, also the threat from China going after Taiwan and then constant threat from North Korea.  One would not be shocked if North Korea tried a missile that can reach the US mainland.  It does not look good, the Tehran Regime is playing Biden, it knows that Biden doe not have the backbone to tackle it, what should worry Tehran is the reaction of Israel, if the Jerusalem Government thinks that it is being SOLD OUT by the Biden Oval it will attack Iran, in that attack it would no be a great surprise if it was joined by Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States.  The KREMLIN must be watching and thinking that this  confirms their view that Biden is a empty suit who will not back up his THREATS.  The WORLD can breath a bit, the Winter Olympics Games in China are on till the 20th of February, after that expect the Russians to take action, the ground will be firm for the Russian Tanks.  One hopes the US, UK and the NATO Countries supplies Ukraine with the enough lethal aid so they can try to fight the Russians, of course Russia will win, but then the West has to follow through with its serious economic sanctions, bring the Russian economy to its knees.

US and Iran Talks - Vienna Update - Biden Era

CNN - Politics: Reports " US Special Envoy for Iran warns of 'escalating crisis' if talks fail to revive Iran nuclear deal "

Lets Get Real:

The Tehran Regime is playing the Biden Oval, it can see that Biden has trouble on the domestic front with with COVID - 19 and abroad with the THREAT from Russia on the Ukraine.  The Tehran just needs a few weeks to get the BOMB, after that it will be a great risk to bomb them, the Biden Oval will also have to deal with the FACT that Israel will take military action if they think through MOSSAD they discover that Iran is a few hours or days from the bomb.  The Biden Oval has to make it CLEAR to Iran, they have been given enough time, at some point the Iran Nuclear Deal is DEAD and the US and its Allies will take action to prevent a nuclear armed Iran.   Let's recall Iran has missile technology already, they have to learn or buy the information from North Korea on how to place nuclear material in a missile.  The most dreadful nightmare for Biden is been woken with the news that the Russians have invaded the Ukraine and that Iran has gone nuclear.  How many people think that Biden is up to the job?

The FAILURE of the Vienna Talks - US vs. Iran - Biden Era

Guardian: Reports " Israel warns diplomacy proving fruitless in Iran nuclear talks...Officials hopeful that US and European nations will agree Tehran is in breach of its obligations  "

Lets Get Real:

The Tehran Regime is pushing its luck, it knows NOW that it is a race between them getting the BOMB and the Israeli Government taking action, with or without the US.  The Israeli State sees a nuclear armed IRAN as a threat to its existence and future.  The Israeli Government is now on good terms with a number of Gulf States and there are reports that the Israeli Government and the Saudi Arabian Government are developing PLANS for a attack on Iran to take out Iran's nuclear facilities before they become a nuclear armed power.  The Biden Administration after Afghanistan cannot afford another major foreign policy failure.  It also has to deal with the THREAT of Russia going in to the Ukraine, the West has made it clear that the Russians would suffer major economic consequences but at present that does not seem to be working, the Kremlin wants a say on the Ukraine going in to NATO, it wants a VETO and its wants to ban NATO equipment in NATO countries close to its BORDER.   The Biden Oval cannot appease Russia, it would be mean selling out the Ukraine, after Afghanistan that would be a disaster and also the Russians want any such agreement in a form of a TREATY, have  they not heard of Munich 1938, Biden is old enough to remember that and knows he has a weak hand to appease anyone. The next few weeks on the international front will be very interesting and the chance of armed conflict breaking out on the Ukraine and Russian border or Iran getting bombed by ISRAEL.
