    They still have it according to the CIA and the topic wasn't even brought up in Pakistan for this 2 week ceasefire

    Iran would be fools to come any agreement with Trump.

    Just saying.

    You are simply repeating Iranian propaganda.

    Full passage through the Strait of Hormuz is now permitted. The fee per vessel is to be determined and will likely last for 2 weeks only, as this fee would otherwise be in violation of international law. America has NOT agreed to $2M per vessel for this two week period -- that was simply an ask by the Iranians -- an opening bid.

    Facts matter.


    GOOD DAY

    No dumbass the AP already confirmed during this 2 week ceasefire the Iranians will charge 2 million per vassel. This is a utterly humiliating defeat.

    Trump literally retweeted the Iranian foreign minister which claimed this!

    Truth! He isn't as psychotic as Trump and he might disagree with this war, but he stays mute. He has kissed his butt with puckered lips since he was in the running for VP, following him along like a little lapdog dressed like him as he supported that lying creep in his trials. He spewed and echoed the sick lies about Haitians and tooted Trump's horn around the country., He's not a man who sticks to his principles. He's proven that in spades, as he flip flopped on all previous statements he made about Trump to get his chance to become VP. He's just another opportunist with no spine, who can't be trusted. He's got a new book about his conversion to being Catholic, as he scoffs at the Pope. The guy is a piece of work, that's for sure. Just an opportunist and suck up with his eyes on taking advantage of every way he can better himself.

    Totally agree. Clowning Trvmp can honestly come later. I didn't want any war, at all, and I'm glad it's stopped b/c it wasn't doing us any good, and it put both our military and their civilians (including all the decent ones we supposedly care about) in harm's way.

    Yes, stop having a dumb, elective war that only one other country wanted. Please keep the cease fire.

    And if anybody in DC learns anything from this and the learning sticks, good.

    I'm sad that it seems to strengthen the hard-liners in Iran, but whatever. If we stopped the stupid before it became more stupid, we should be happy.

    That's the 100 billion dollar question. They take our money, while they provide their citizens cheaper education and healthcare, as we gut those programs to fund Israel and our military. All to a country that has no qualms committing genocide and war crimes against humanity.

    Maybe you misunderstood what I’m saying, but I don’t think anything is going to change except for there being a short break. I don’t trust that Trump and Bibi will negotiate in good faith. They’ll probably just start bombing again mid negotiation.

    When have the US or Israel ever honored a ceasefire agreement?

    The amount of the fee has not been agreed upon and the $2M figure is Iranian propaganda. You connected the AP's mention of a fee to the Iranian demand for $2M per vessel. That does not in any way confirm that $2M per vessel is the right figure... and whatever the fee is, it's very short term in nature. You look desperate and rushed. Signs of a losing argument.

    You are so low IQ that you have repeatedly said "vassal" when you meant "vessel". You have no clue what you are talking about. For your education, a vassal in the medieval feudal system was a person granted the use of land (a fief) by a lord in exchange for pledges of loyalty (fealty), homage, and military service. Vassals were typically nobles or knights who provided protection and administrative support, occupying a subordinate position beneath a higher lord or monarch.

    You, sir, are no vassal.


    GOOD DAY

    Not really. Trump is mentally ill, a malignant narcissist or sociopath and declining cognitively. We can't wait almost three years.

    One can acknowledge "Genocide Joe" deserves to be at the Hague, vote for Kamala who was not much better and also believe Trump needs to be in the Hague also.

    Fox owned wall street journal and Iranian government are both confirming it now. I use voice to text so sometimes my words come off wrong but my point stands

    Once you come to the conclusion this war has been a massive failure you should get off the MAGA bandwagon before you embarrass yourself more
