The Iran strikes are off again after U.S. forces pounded Iran overnight, but this time it sounds like President Trump has a very good reason for canceling them.
According to a Truth Social post from the president, it appears as though the Iranians have finally seen the light:
Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening.
Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others. The Naval Blockade will remain in full force and effect until this Transaction is finalized — Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly.
If this holds, this is very good news. And frankly, it should hold; there is no way Iran can win, despite what those America-hating morons on CNN and MS NOW say.
While I’m not privvy to any information the president has, I will say this. Trump made a very strong pitch earlier today about seizing Kharg Island, as well as continuing to hit the Iranians hard. Kharg Island is Iran’s oil industry hub; an American takeover would cripple the Iranian economy.
Again, nothing final yet, but this is the most positive news in weeks. Also, the stock and oil markets both love the news, as Wall Street gained while oil prices fell as of this writing.
