Art of the deal, everyone

The thing I wanna know is how many israeli's are doing the Anne Frank thing with palestinian families. You know: hiding them in the basement and feeding them.

[–] TransNeko@lemmy.world -2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

they only do it if the palestinian is a child. and they only do it because in israel, it's neither pedophilia or rape, to rape a palestinian child.

[–] TransNeko@lemmy.world -3 points 3 hours ago

what? it's true. Israeli people really love raping kids as state policy. so much so that they regularly film themselves doing it.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 20 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

The president keeps straight up lying and saying the deal covers the nuclear issue, even as Iran says it doesn't.

This deal won't hold even if it's reached. As if our president could say no to Israel when they restart hostilities. This thing won't end, it just remains to be seen if Iran is willing to accept lebanon being turned into gaza and attacks against Iran and their people while still keeping the straits open.

This will go on forever, peace deal or no.

[–] Pollo_Jack@lemmy.world 0 points 3 hours ago

Until conservatives lose control of the US.

[–] underThunder@thelemmy.club 5 points 9 hours ago

But the peace deal will still be signed today, right?

American here. I haven't heard the claims, but they're likely true if Trump is upset.

Did you guys know he raped kids?

Yeah, there's these things called the Epstein files. They're pretty shocking, but his followers care more about what's in all our fucking pants. Just like him, they're also perverts. They want to see our genetalia before we enter bathrooms. Sick fucks.

[–] TransNeko@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

they just want to make sure their victims don't have more balls than they do.

[–] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 12 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The article says solving the nuclear issue is not realistic in 60 days, I think it is. Trump will propose to reinstate what Obama obtained, with his name sharpied over.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 43 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Iran will never accept those terms today. That ship sailed when USA attacked Iran in the middle of negotiations.
And now Iran has found out their negotiation position is way better than they thought before Israel ans USA attacked them.

[–] BNE@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 11 hours ago

Art of the deal. Fucking idiot.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It does largely appear to be their ballgame, but the US seems quite content to utterly collapse states in the Middle East lately.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, this is an absolute shitshow, and USA is probably the biggest loser in all of this. Not Trump, he is raking in money on insider trading and corruption, but USA and average Americans are losing a lot of money on higher oil prices.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

It seems it's trump putin and bibi making out like thieves in the night

[–] fodor@lemmy.zip 27 points 20 hours ago

Iran knows he's lying. There is no value in Trump's words.

[–] rwrwefwef@sh.itjust.works 76 points 1 day ago (5 children)

According to leaks to Iranian media the draft includes a reconstruction which will result in Tehran receiving $300 billion to rebuild its cities. Also included will be the release of $24 billion in blocked Iranian funds, half of which must be paid to Iran before fresh talks start.

Damn, that's an Israeli level supply of foreign aid.

To any outside observer it looks like Iran has won this war, complete with reparations from the US.

I’m sure Israel will blow this deal up though.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 9 points 14 hours ago

israel/trump/benjamin has a vested interest in keeping it going. it keeps netanyahu out of jail, and trump out of the epstein files in the news.

[–] justOnePersistentKbinPlease@fedia.io 46 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They already bombed Lebanon today, likely to try and derail it again.

[–] ButtermilkBiscuit@feddit.nl 20 points 22 hours ago

Yup, was just going to comment this. Bombs right on time to try and kill any ongoing negotiations. Israel is not a friend to the US, and trump clearly has no control over the situation. Shit, trump going into this nightmare at netanyahoo's request is so on brand for the moron magats and trump.

lol that fuckin strait ain't opening this year, is it

say bye bye to economic growth by next month

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 19 points 15 hours ago (5 children)

Here's some hopium for us all: Considering how little the average person has benefited from economic growth, that might not be so bad.

Especially if it hastens our independence from fossil fuels (which, in a sane world, events like this absolutely should).

[–] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Haha no no, you don't understand. When there is growth the profits are privatized; when there is a collapse, the losses are socialized.

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Sounds remarkably like this cuckolding fetish I've been hearing about.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

That is a wild thought. I saw something that said the top ten percent of the economy is the only sector of the economy showing any movement. Essentially that 90% of Americans have zero economic power.

Your observation kinda lines up with that. It would also make "I love the inflation" make sense. The capital class is doing good.

[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 4 points 6 hours ago

Hold on to your britches, the economy is going down like a rollercoaster. After the SpaceX and other AI company IPOs, odds are that a bubble much larger than the Dotcom iteration will explode.

I could do with less interesting times.

[–] YellowParenti@lemmy.wtf 5 points 10 hours ago

You don't benefit from economic growth, but you damn sure will get fired if we have another once in a life time recession. Don't worry though, bailouts for the brave companies firings workers.

theres economic growth? when?

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 29 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

Iran will keep it closed until after the elections. They understand exactly how poisonous this is to Trump, and how it will affect MAGA in the election. Keeping the Strait closed hurts Trump and MAGA more than all the missiles in their arsenal, and they have to do almost nothing to maintain it for as long as they feel like it.

If Trump tries to throw a few missiles, they'll just retaliate by bombing our shitty friends (but not Saudi Arabia, never the Saudis), who will then get madder at US.

So Obama merely released Iran's own monetary assets in American banks that we had frozen, which Trump attacked relentlessly, as recently as last week, but now he's going to PAY them to repair the damage HE caused?

He won't be able to rationalize these concessions, so once again he will kill the deal, and blame Biden.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 35 points 23 hours ago (9 children)

So this technically means that Iran won, right?

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 6 points 12 hours ago

If the leaked details are remotely accurate (they're consistent with previous leaked drafts, so they do sound credible) this is a total capitulation on the part of the United States.

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

I wouldn't consider it a win if they get paid merely the damages caused - they did lose lives after all. But also, if true, Magastan didn't win anything.
