PAKISTAN PM SHARIF: THERE IS NO MENTION OF BALLISTIC MISSILES IN THE MOU BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER ON THE TABLE
Trump suggests the war powers resolution is treason
If he unsurrenders he'll just have to resurrender.
loser of the war with the US/Israel somehow gets to lay security fees on the rest of the world
TOLLS NOT ON THE TABLE BUT IRAN IS EXPECTED TO PROPOSE ENVIRONMENTAL, NAVIGATION AND SECURITY FEE, DIPLOMAT SAYS
is it open yet?
a clear plurality of Americans are not on board
Gulf allies to have separate talks with Iran
Finger in the air, GCC countries may decide to take the crosshairs off their productive capacity by kicking US armed forces out
Iran-GCC-Iraq talks over Hormuz are separate from US-Iran peace talks and arrangements to de-mine the strait, and are focused on future operation of Hormuz.
Trump World Order
Iran was never supposed to be a forever war. It was a precise and lethal operation. Trump took a shot, got the deal, and got out. Now we can book our next excursion. Cuba. Greenland, maybe. Or our 51st state, Canada.

Intelligence Chair Rick Crawford: "If you think about the way President Trump is treating this, it's not unlike the way MacArthur engaged with Japan post-World War 2."

That's your master that's for algae on the brain. He's obsessing and arresting people for it.

You could never muster the courage to say you were in favor of the war you lost.

the war with Iran is purportedly over but the second-order effects -- like physical shortage of oil, price-discovery and demand-destruction -- have yet to arrive
the US consumer is going to be paying higher prices for everything for a long time

the Iran war is an epic US own-goal
Iran rattles the saber, threatens IDF in Lebanon
Y'all sure this war is over?
https://www.iranintl.com/en/202606257330Iran’s Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani said on Thursday that Israel must leave Lebanon or face a forced withdrawal in defeat.
“You must leave all of Lebanon,” Qaani said in remarks carried by state media. “This land is a field of steadfastness and resistance, not a playground for occupiers.”
“If you do not withdraw of your own accord today, tomorrow you will be forced to flee in humiliation and defeat,” he said.
Oman testing Iranian control of the strait
UAE bridles at Iran's purported control
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveb...s-2-in-lebanonNew “geopolitical facts” cannot be imposed on the Arab Gulf states as a result of a “treacherous aggression against them”, the UAE’s presidential adviser Anwar Gargash says.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/...-authorisation“The only authorised route for passage through the Strait of Hormuz is the route announced by the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the Revolutionary Guards, the ideological arm of Iran’s military, said on Thursday.
Any crossing without authorisation is “unacceptable and extremely dangerous”, they warned in a statement.
They also denounced what they said was a new route through the waterway announced by “certain authorities”, without elaborating.
Cushing may hit tank bottoms in as soon as two days
What happens after that is probably the main reason Trump is trying to do a deal now
The EIA confirmed US Cushing crude oil inventories have crashed to 19 million barrels, the lowest level since 2014 and just 2 days from rock bottom where pipelines lose pressure and the strategic hub begins physical breakdown, with the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve falling another 9.1 million barrels to 331.2 million, the lowest since 1983.https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-G...From-Over.htmlAs the energy cliff approaches, oil prices will likely regain and perhaps exceed their previous highs. As the resulting pain transmits through the world economy, including the United States, the Trump administration will be incentivized to come to a stabilizing agreement as quickly as possible
a global shortage of energy can't be papered over or handwaved away
https://x.com/DarioCpx/status/2069802588078522478– Below 20 million barrels, the physical hub struggles to pump and transfer crude. Pipelines lose pressure, and blending operations become highly restricted.
– Refineries face immediate difficulties accessing the crude they need to produce fuel. Outbound flows and export shipments face potential curtailments and delays.
– If supplies are critically depleted, terminal and pipeline operators may invoke force majeure, legally halting supply commitments due to events outside their control.
