Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsTrump says the war is essentially over to CBS news, the market recovers,
and the market is up according to Bloomberg and other sources, and the innocent lives lost, and billions of dollars wasted on this farce will be quickly forgotten, at least so it seems according to the narrative being presented by this administration.
What was this for?
Distraction from the Epstein revelations, thinking the war will propel the rrethugs to victory in the midterms, etc.
We will see in November, but the stupidity of the American public never fail to amaze me, and when the thug in the WH is out of office, who will get blamed when the cost of everything comes due?

Stocks rebound after comment.

(61 posts)From what I am seeing, the strikes are not only continuing, but are expanding in range and firepower
Trump will try to escape blame like he tried to escape the Epstein debacle, but neither will work
The war will tell you when it's over ...
If the bombs are falling, the war is NOT over

He wants top and Bibi bottom.
But this really is meaningless unless Iran
surrenders.

(34,123 posts)Talking about how we have knocked out missiles, missile launchers, Navy etc. (Stuff that we pretty much know)
Wants a regime change, but doesn't sound like he has a real plan.
Now he's drifting
Says they have a new nuclear site in granite. (He's not speaking clearly and I can't figure out what we did with this new nuclear site???)
He says they were going to attack US...
Calling it an excursion...Says US will insure ships in the strait. Talking about how Venezuela is our new oil partner.
Now he's saying Iran was going to take over the ME. (What happened to the attack on the US??)
Time for questions:
Had a good call with Putin
"Excursion" will be over very soon
Pivoting to Cuba. He said, "takeover"
Still deflecting on the school bombing
I could call it a tremendous success right now
Their new government is "nobodies". (Whatever...nobodies can be just as brutal as somebodies)
Not making any sense about eliminating new leadership.

(17 posts)Poor people. Same as it ever was.
The history of mankind shows that from the beginning of the world, the rich of all countries have been in a permanent state of conspiracy to keep down the poor of all countries, and for this plain reason because the poverty of the poor man is essential to the riches of the rich man. No matter by what means they may disguise their operations, the rich are everlastingly plundering, debasing and brutalising the poor. All the crimes and superstitions of human nature have their origin in this cannibal warfare of riches against poverty. The desire of one man to live on the fruits of anothers labour is the original sin of the world. It is this which fills the world with faction and hypocrisy and has made all past history to be what Gibbon so justly described a record of the crimes, absurdities and calamities of mankind. It is the parent injustice from which all injustice springs.
