US/Israel Launches Op Epic Fury Against Iran (5 Viewers)

How did those technical experts do in places like Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq? How did they do in the past in negotiating with Iran? The US negotiators are not the problem. Iran is the problem. How can you negotiate with people whose objective it is to destroy Israel and US and go down with the ship if necessary? The only thing you can do is keep applying the pressure until they crack. The primary reason that Trump is president are the decades long failures of the establishment guided by "experts" like Kissinger and Bolton.
Doug, you forgot to mention negotiating "experts" like Hilliary Clinton, Antony Blinkin and, of course, the most notable of them all, John Forbes Kerry! :rolleyes:

Despite all the media naysaying and posturing by Iran and Trump, I think there is a better than even chance that the ceasefire is extended and that there is a deal soon. One of the problems is that it is unclear who is even in charge in Iran. Maybe no one. Maybe multiple different people with varying willingness to deal. Regardless, the blockade is killing them. It's only a matter of time. The deal will be something along the lines of the straits getting opened, agreeing on some framework about the nuclear program (which Iran will eventually not fulfill), the hostilities end, and we unfreeze some Iranian assets to rebuild. Gas prices will drop quickly and the market will rebound.

Don't think there will be a deal unless there is an arrangement for the enriched Uranium to be handed over to US, under US supervision, after all, this is what the whole thing has been about, not oil, despite what you may hear on msm.

This is about the best scenario I'm looking forward to also...some kind of structure on their nuclear program...with scheduled inspections from the International Atomic Energy Agency please...get oil flowing again via the Straight...gas prices may go down quickly...but probably a year before they are reduced to pre-war prices...I hope to have some stipulations on Iran arming terrorists...read an article about Trump reining in Netanyahu on Lebanon...but that doesn't solve Israel's problems...and I don't have any answers for that...but if Lebanon strikes first...I have no problem with retaliation from them...

I read that it would be a massive undertaking to remove the enriched Uranium. No easy task requiring thousands of people. And that is assuming it is not buried under tons of rubble. With both sides needing a deal, I think they agree to a framework in the short term. And given the Iranian track record, that agreement will break down and we will be back to square one several years from now. The alternative is to go all in, but I doubt Trump or many Americans have the will to do that.
