Editorial: If the ceasefire holds, Donald Trump’s ill-starred foray into the Middle East will have left the Iranian regime stronger than it was before the conflict
Yep, but his biggest blunder was to trust Trump to help him out all the way. What makes Netanyahu a moron in my books is that now after a few years Iran will be stronger and led by military. It will hurt Israel in the long term.
The electorate on both sides have definitely soured on Israel, organically. I only expect the evangelicals to stay the same. AIPAC is having to reach deep into its war chest to buy elections and increasingly obfuscate its contributions through shell PACs now.
Netanyahu is not a moron, making Iran weaker wasn’t his goal. Forever war was, to have a foil to play for domestic political purposes.
Not to mention Gaza and the West Bank has been out of the news cycle. The colonists have been doing some heinous shit since the war happened.
It’s his “keeping himself out of jail” plan. Just like with Thwump. The only way not to go to jail is to stay President.

That’s going to depend on whether US support for the Zionist project will be as unconditional as it has been so far.

Exactly what he did with Hamas all these years.
The villain loves creating his own enemies to keep his political career going.
The whole point of the war was to stop oil sales in chinese yuan. It’s as simple as that.
Gold has been surging and that was because they country was trading gold for yuan to buy oil. Now they can’t do that. Oil is traded in USD again.
Did it stop though? Why can’t they use RMB, what changed?
Because we sent the us military to stop RMB oil sales
But did they stop? It looks like the US military was defeated
They did stop. Now all insurance and oil is USD on the straight currently
Can you put a source to that? All I could find is the US allowing Iran to start selling oil without restrictions. It looks unclear at this point.
Because of the war, emerging markets are trading oil in yen. I don’t know what your talking about.
Have you not been following the gold price surging?
Gold price actually Flatliners with the war, as people were selling gold to buy oil
Yes that is the idea. Instead of selling gold to buy yuan. Now they are selling gold to buy petroldollar.
