Is Trump another Carter when it comes to Iran - Update

CNN: Reports " Trump has a Carter-style Iran problem as the economy drags before the midterms "

Let's Get Real:

Trump has one chance not to become another Carter, he has to place ground troops in Kharg Island, and make it plain that if Iran moves it forces he will blow Kharg Island in to the heavens, and place troops to take Iran's nuclear material. The media will worry about casualties, Reagan lost 241 US Marines in Beirut in 1983, but went on to win 49 States, 59% of the vote and 525 Electoral votes in the 1984 Presidential Election.  Also in 1983 he invaded Grenada.  Presidents who lead win, Carter never lead, thus his one term.  This is Trump's last chance.

Trump warns Israeli PM and Iran - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Frustrated Trump sends a chilling message to Netanyahu and vows to 'take out' Iran's final untouched nuclear site if deal is not reached "

Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval does not like to be shown in up public by a friend, specially if that friend is Israel telling him that Iran has been placing its nuclear stockpile in another mountain after Trump bombed Iran last year over the fear of its nuclear stockpile.  The Trump Oval has given peace talks with Iran a chance, its never the last time with Iran, they have talks, shoot at tankers and then have further talks, they are playing Trump for a fool.  The Trump background is real estate and reality TV, he does not understand the Iranian mind set or how to win a WAR.  The President as stated in previous post is listening to his Vice President, J.D Vance, who more concerned about the 2028 race and if he can win the MAGA base and win the General Election.  LBJ made sure his VP kept to the script, he bugged his plane as to know in advance if his VP was about to break with him over the Vietnam War, while that was going on the FBI was bugging the South Vietnam Embassy and discovered that the Nixon Campaign was telling South Vietnam not to go the Paris peace talks.  It would be fair to say that LBJ kept quiet about it, as would cause a constitutional crisis and it would be something that LBJ had over Nixon, the Watergate caper of Nixon trying find out what the Democrats had on the affair, thus the fall of Nixon.

Fox News: Reports the following, " Iran refuses new US talks until MOU conditions implemented, Hormuz stays under Tehran's control " 

Let's Get Real:

Here again Tehran is playing the US, they want to see how far they can push Trump Oval.  Trump Oval promises the furies on Iran but never follows through, Tehran Regime knows it is safe, that Trump will never take action, that Trump is more afraid of the Mid Terms and the Democratic investigation will happen should they take the House.  The War was a strategic blunder that was made worse by Trump not following through, if Trump did not have the backbone he should not have started the War in the first place.

Let's Get Real:

The Revolutionary Guard is playing Trump and his Administration, POTUS so wants a winning deal that he is living in his own World.  The Trump Oval wants out of the WAR he started, he has no understanding of Middle East politics or culture.  As in the US there are hawks and Doves in Iran, the Hawks are the Revolutionary Guard, the Doves in Iranian terms is the chosen secular Government.  The talks are meant to be about Iran's nuclear stockpile, Tehran wants to talk about the MOU and its meaning.  The Trump Oval is being played by diplomatic masters!

BBC News:  Reports the following, " The head of the global nuclear watchdog has said it will carry out inspections in Iran under the country's preliminary peace agreement with the US. "

The world will suffer later.

Ceasefire in Lebanon - Update

Noted: Read Dr Jill Bidem Memoirs from the East Wing, the interesting moments come with the trial of Hunter Biden, how the First Lady attended every day, even flying from France, the emotional toll on the family.  The decision to run for re-election, Biden admitted that the President had gotten older, but in her view was still up to the job.  How during the debate with Trump, Jill Biden thought her husband had a stroke.  That the Democrats turned against the President and forced him out.  One gets the impression that Joe Biden forgave these people, not so his wife.  That she was passive when Doctors discovered the President had cancer and it had moved to his bones, some First Ladies would have demanded the heads of the Doctors.  One gets the impression that Dr Biden enjoyed being First lady and was blind to her husband's decline. Would explain why his staff thought he would need a wheelchair in his 2nd term, if re-elected.

Guardian:  Reports in its 1.55pm post the following, " Israel and Hezbollah agree to ceasefire - Reuters " 

Let's Get Real:

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.

The US - Iran Deal - Appeasement - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 9.44am post the following, " Here are the 14 points reportedly forming the US-Iran memorandum of understanding "

Let's Get Real:

If you want to read what Appeasement looks like, just read the 14 points.  It was written in Tehran.  An investment fund of 300 billion, the ending of the war in Lebanon, ending of sanctions on Iran, respect the internal sovereignty of Iran.  NO wonder the deal is hated in Israel, its worse than Munich 1938.  ONE hopes the Hawks in the US take the deal apart.  The US cannot order Israel around, it is also a nuclear power. On the plus side for the Strait of Hormuz is to open, but no mention of the nuclear stockpile, just Iran saying it does not want a NUKE, Tehran will never give up its nuclear stockpile.

Let's Get Real:

The US - Iran deal is WORSE than Munich 1938, it was a strategic blunder equall to Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq.  Trump is in no rush to get the nuclear stockpile, no wonder he has not released the plan yet, he is afraid of the outcry from the Right of the Republicans, the Democrats will tear it apart.  This is a disaster for Trump and the World.

Time will tell.
