Trump Says He Is Postponing Strikes On Iran Power Plants After ‘Productive’ Talk by Hanibbal(op): 12:28pm On Mar 23
The US president says very good and productive conversations have been held on a complete and total resolution of hostilities in the Middle East

Trump says he is postponing strikes on Iran power plants after ‘productive’ talks on ending war

Summary

Donald Trump says the US and Iran have held talks on the "complete and total resolution of hostilities" in the Middle East

He says that, as a result of the talks, he has postponed threatened strikes on Iranian power plants - oil and gas prices fall immediately

On Saturday night, Trump gave Iran a 48-hour deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz - or, he said, the US would "obliterate" Iranian power plants, "starting with the biggest one first"

Trump's message is perhaps his most conciliatory since the war began, but it leaves significant unanswered questions - read more from our White House reporter

Earlier, the UK's Keir Starmer and Trump agreed that reopening the Strait of Hormuz is "essential to resume global shipping" during a call late on Sunday

The call - which came on the day Trump shared a satirical clip about the PM - lasted 20 minutes and was "constructive", Downing Street says

Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says it expects to face "several more weeks of fighting" against Iran and Hezbollah

He lost the war and should go and make amends.

All the fake myth of invincibility built around US proxy in Occupied Palestine is GONE!

Everywhere is bombed in Isreal and Iran is succeeding in bombing everywhere to prepare for an invasion from the North by Hezbollah and South by Hamas.

Iran has been bombing the Gaza border Isreali communities and have devastated the North thereby forcing the Europeans wannabe Jews to concentrate in Central where it is hitting back to back while Ben Gurion airport has been rendered useless(attempt to use it today to flee was immediately halted at the sound of incoming missiles from Iran).

US bases destroyed and Arab gulf nations realize that Trump can not protect them.

TRUMP LOST THE WAR TO IRAN!

The prophecy of the martyred Supreme Leader came to pass.

Trump's party will lose majority and control of both congress and senate to the Democrats during this November US midterm elections and Trump will be impeached as he himself predicted and he will be jailed.

His ill fate was brought upon him by his hubris and sealed by the curse of the martyred Supreme Leader.

HUMANITY WON! SANE HUMANS WITH BLOOD AND COMMON SENSE WON!

Let's not get carried away. Trump is only manipulating the stock market. That's why he makes posts like this on Fridays and Mondays. Watch out for another crazy post on Friday. He and his friends are cashing out from this. It is all theatre.

This time, he did not chicken out. He was militarily defeated. He waged an actual war and lost.

Netanyahu is on his own at least for now.

Re: Trump Says He Is Postponing Strikes On Iran Power Plants After ‘Productive’ Talk by Razzness(m):
From "unconditional surrender" to "productive talks on ending the war." What a turn of fate.
Re: Trump Says He Is Postponing Strikes On Iran Power Plants After ‘Productive’ Talk by CaseSensitive(m):
But Tehran said they there's been no direct communication with the US nor through an intermediary. Who actually did Trump speak to? Eating up his own words as usual?

Looking at it from a different but connected lens, the market is currently in shambles and I believe Trump’s post about talking to Iran is about stabilising the market for this week at least to avoid a global meltdown. His statement is meant to manipulate the market. He’s going to resume attacks over the weekend when the markets are closed. But that’s not sustainable, how long is he going to keep up with the manipulation? He’s backed into a corner that he can’t get out of.

I'll take this as a win for Iran, it's Cuba and Nigeria that will bear the brunt of United States bruised ego. Buckle up guys, it's about to get interesting.

But Terhan said they didn't speak to Trump's team. Who did Trump speak to?
He speaks with himself. Same way he claimed that he spoke with a former president about the war, but all living former presidents have said thay did not speak with him.
The man is pathetic pathological liar.

"Iran Says Will Hit Region’s Energy Sites If US, Israel Target Power Plants" I guess this is the reason Trump postponed the strike

Wether terrorist sympathizers like it or not. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon
They should not agree to hold talks now. They should continue to fire missiles recklessly in every direction while Israeli fighters are dancing azonto in their airspace, decimating their key leaders

Iran has made it clear that any deal or ceasefire that would be reached would have to be done with respect to the concerns of both parties and Iran has been sticking to it's words so far.......the other option is to beat Iran silly till they give in which the US have failed to achieve so far.

How much subsidy do you estimate APC is forcing you to pay now that petrol is way above their N70 that it must NEVER go beyond?

What can we do to stop the massive corruption in APC's oil sector huh

anonimi:
Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC

January 19, 2015

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.

On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.

But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.

It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.

Joker.

GCC countries will turn against the USA if he tries it.

If he strikes Iran's power plants, Iran will strike the power plants of those countries that have America's bases and they will turn against America because they know who the aggressor is.

I am sure the Gulf countries have warned him against it. He just trying to act as if he controls the cards.


He wants to end the war now that Israel is short on air defence weapons and Iran is now on the offensive. Clown.
