In reply to the discussion: Trump says Iran peace deal is 'largely negotiated' [View all]Aussie105
(8,201 posts)34. Trump starts an unwinnable war . . .
and still thinks he can dictate terms to Iran?
Yeah, ok - but I'm not buying it.
Donny boy, your faith in American moral and technological superiority in war has failed you.
(Not like that hasn't happened before.)
The Straight may be opened up, but it will have a permanent transit levy applied, and you can forget any Nobel peace prize you were wet dreaming about.
And the Iranians now have more reason to drive any US presence in the Middle East out, and build a few long-range nuclear weapons, no matter what they agree to.
Nukes, not to use, but to force America to cut back on the bully boy tactics and treat the ancient country of Persia with a bit more respect.
King Donny's 'kiss of death' in action!

I'm sorry, but "largely negotiated" sounds too much like "almost pregnant" to me.
