    Related, from WSJ today. Sorry, don't have a gift link. They seem happy to out wait Mr Short Attention Span.

    [WSJ] Iran Believes It’s Winning—and Wants a Steep Price to End the War

    Tehran sees an opportunity to control the Mideast’s energy as it bets on outlasting Trump’s will—a risky gamble

    Entire blocks were wiped out, now with Trump threat to destroy Iran energy infstrctures in 48Hours , Iran responds with :
    Following previous warnings, if Iran's fuel and energy infrastructure is attacked by the enemy, all US and regime energy, information technology and water desalination facilities in the region will be targeted.

    Natanyahu&Trump are re making the titanic scene here,
    I think it's feasible that the stockmarket will see 12% plunge at any given day next week, while bond%yield start @ 5.5% at the opening

    But im confused? According to Trump the entire Iranian military was, "100% destroyed" and they're begging for a ceasefire lmao. I don't think Americans realize how badly the entire world is laughing at America.

    I'm in Europe right now and every news channel has been clowning on Trump. Your right wing channels like sky news are even clowning on him

    It's funny and all that until you realize Stephen Miller is the de facto president, and will go to full extent to serve Israel, even if that means no pension, health care or if the entire economy burns

    What do you expect when you have a man who acts on impulse with an incompetent lying drunk like Hegseth running things? They think they know more than the experts, regardless of how incompetent they are. All they do is lie and deceive Americans

    When I took the time to translate, the words are nearly the same as the religion I was raised in. Pease be with you.

    Folks the world economy is - barring some magic change - about to go through a pandemic style supply chain crash out and unlike the stupidity of "Liberation Day" it can't be as easily un****ed because it is multiplayer game

    @Os Trigonum - why don't you drop one of your classic economic rake stepping sessions about Democrats ruining the economy with "price controls" - a very real thing that only you are smart enough to talk about

    The words themselves originate from two different "religions". And with you, peach.

    Yeah, the markets should be interesting to watch this week, in a bad way. I wonder how much of MAGA has 401Ks to worry about? They have gas tanks and cars, in most cases.

    Trump posting random things has magically been able to reassure markets, but you have to think the ground truth will slowly start to penetrate (?). Maybe not. Maybe logic and objective information have truly fled from one major political party, including senators, reps, and not just 27% of the populace. God help us one and all.
