regional quagmire
https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-893321A senior Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post that, unlike in the past, the United States now intends to actively lead efforts to disarm Hezbollah and is prepared to use American resources to achieve this goal. “Trump wants this to happen, so this time the US will be far more involved,” the official said.
The Art of Pretending there’s a Deal
Since you know all about the deal, can I see the actual agreement in writing, snacks?
Link to the full signed do ent, pls.
Man up.
there isn't a signed deal, that's why Trump can lie freely about it

There's no deal
Trump is propping up a strawman to soothe the markets and -- probably, another possibility is that Trump is looking for an exit ramp -- to buy time for another round of attacks

But tsa said the Iranians don't have any more gun boats
TSA mindlessly repeats regime propaganda, it's pretty much the only thing he does
Friday: Trump gooses the market declaring the Strait of Iran fully open for business!

The fact that an apparently functioning human being like TSA always has and always will take Donald ing Trump at his word with no other corroboration or evidence is astounding.
the conceit that Iran is already beaten when it still controls the Strait of Hormuz is a bit of a stretch
www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u..."American military and intelligence officials estimate that, after weeks of war, Iran still has about 40 percent of its arsenal of attack drones and upward of 60 percent of its missile launchers — more than enough to hold shipping in the Strait of Hormuz hostage..."
Führerprinzip, tbh
According to this principle, the task of forging a strong national unity requires leadership of a strong, charismatic individual to whom absolute or near-absolute obedience is given by all members of society. Under these conditions such a leader, according to the Führerprinzip, can then represent the concrete embodiment of the state, of its laws, and of the will of the nation as a whole.
escalation is the trap, Trump keeps falling right into it
https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-eas...s-say-4dc0a718The U.S. military is preparing in coming days to board Iran-linked oil tankers and seize commercial ships in international waters, according to U.S. officials, expanding its naval crackdown beyond the Middle East.
To me it's astounding the large number of Americans that still do. They figure if talking heads on a place like Fox and Friends can figure out the 4d chess moves then they can appeal to that authority.
"Welp I guess we gots to pay high gas now tuh pay low gas later"

TACOnomics
First it was "obliterated"

What's next?
I wonder if tsa remembers this post
